O'Keeffe's Working Hands Hand Cream for Extreme Dryness - 3.4 oz Jar (1 Pack) - Repairing Skincare for Cracked, Dry Hands

I had my doubts about how well this Hand Cream would work yet hope won out and I ordered it anyway. I am seriously impressed!!! I battle dry hands, feet and lips year round and especially in the winter. Between warm, dry indoor air and cold, dry outdoor air my skin does not stand a chance. This hand cream is like no other. First, there is no odor. Second, it is a solid cream that softens with the warmth of your hand so unless you "dig" into the jar, you'll never overdo it. The cream is absorbed into my skin quickly, leaving no greasy residue behind. I have been applying the cream a few times a day for the last week and I cannot believe the difference in how well my hands look and feel. Even between my fingers. Price point is reasonable and honestly, for the results I have achieved, I would be willing to pay more. If you struggle with dry, cracked skin this cream is well worth a try.

I got this hand cream for my girlfriend, and it works really well. Feels thick but absorbs quickly, and her hands feel soft and repaired even after a few uses. Perfect for really dry or cracked skin.

Nothing works like Working Hands! This stuff moisturizes dry, cracked hands that other moisturizers can't touch. The hand cream is thicker, but works easily into the skin with little effort and no irritation. Love Working Hands, and the pump bottle is a lot easier to use for quick moisturizing than the typical bottles in my opinion

I cannot sing the praises of this hand cream enough. Usually around the end of September my eczema starts to flair up on my hand. It’s so bad my hands are like sandpaper. I have tried many products over the years and none have worked as well as this. This is high quality stuff. It’s thick, creamy, but not greasy. It melts into your skin with some rubbing. I wait after applying it as I want it to absorb well. It had a slightly odd smell after I first opened the container but that quickly disappeared. I don’t notice any fragrance now. It’s a little pricey but in line with all the other creams I considered. After using multiple times a day I and for several days several days, I have bearely made a dent in it. It seems like it will last for a while. My hands strongly recommthis product.

The container isn’t sealed. It leaks out when I received. I trust this brand making good product but if the container is sealed.

Working Hands lotion is seriously good. The scent is hard to describe kind of like a faint hospital smell but don’t let that fool you. This has saved my hands! I’m an extreme hand-washer due to OCD, and this keeps them from cracking. One tip: always keep the container upright, or the oils can leak. Highly recommend!

I've been using this stuff for years. Like, literally, the last time I bought a pack it was years ago. You only need a little bit of cream to moisturize both hands. This stuff lasts forever, and it works pretty dang well. No complaints. I'll keep buying this as long as they make it. This specific "cream" works very well because it contains some type of wax like substance that works really well at holding in moisture from your skin. That also means it feels a bit different than other lotions normally do. It can dry out, which would normally mean the lotion was expired. But it's fine. Just add a drop or two of water to the top, and mix it together. Kinda like mixing the water back into sour cream. Then put the lid back on, and it'll be good for a few more months. It's hard to come up with a lot of detailed things to say. It's hand lotion. It has a subtle smell that's hard to describe, but easy to ignore. If you want something with a scent, try another lotion. Apply when your hands are getting dry, and it keeps your hands from cracking, bleeding, or otherwise getting dry and unpleasant. Don't let your hands get like that. Treat yourself by having skin that doesn't look and feel like it's dead. Being wax-like means you need less than normal lotion, since it doesn't evaporate or dry out like other lotions. Most people are probably applying way too much. Like, ten times what they actually need. But before I can explain how much to use, I have to explain how lotion works. The natural oils your body produces are critical to holding in the water in your skin. Without it, your hands will dry out and if it gets bad enough, you'll start bleeding. Lotion works by substituting your natural oils with something else that holds in water. That usually means oil or wax. In a pinch, olive oil works as a moisturizer, because it does the same thing. (putting olive oil on your hands then sleeping with gloves is actually really good for your hands) More than a dry climate, using some moisturizer is especially important for any job (or other reason) that requires you to wash your hands often, since soap removes all the important oils off your hands, leaving them to dry out. The dryer your climate, the worse your hands will feel after washing and drying out. The best time to use lotion is right after you use soap. The important part isn't drowning your hands in cream. The important part is forming a thin layer that holds in your body's water. So whatever amount you were using before, it was probably too much. The best way to use lotion is to apply a very thin layer, less than your pinky finger picks up when you wipe it over the surface of the container. Rub that into your hands right after you wash and dry them, before they've completely finished drying. After I do that, I'll usually wipe my hands off with a pepper towel to remove any excess residue. This lotion gets into the cracks and sticks to your hands very well. You can gently wipe down your hands after applying the cream, and there's still enough to hold in your body's natural moisture. Just don't try to get your hands feeling "clean". If you remove 100% of the lotion and your hands feel like they've just been washed, that's bad. Because now there's no natural oils protecting your hands, and you've just removed the lotion that was supposed to protect your hands from drying out. You're right back to square one. Instead, of removing everything, your hands should feel like there's something coating them. It feels weird, but that layer of wax is what keeps your hands from drying out. If there's enough lotion that you can see white residue when you touch something, you're using way too much. Use less, and wipe off your hands after applying. Meanwhile, if you can't see your fingerprint on glass or metal after washing your hands and applying lotion, you probably don't have enough to keep your hands from drying out. Pictures coming soon.

This stuff? Really works! Not greasy, either. It’s got a very nice, texture. . Not slimy or “ balmy~”. It takes about 5 mins. To soak in. I just bought another one(
