5 Best Hand Creams for Dry Skin
If your mitts are anything like ours, they’re currently engaged in a brutal love triangle between hand soap, hand sanitizer, and hand lotion. Thanks to a rigorous regimen of scrubbing and sanitizing, our hands are extra dry and a little itchy and irritated. In our quest for happier hands, we rounded up five of our favorite lotions and creams to give your paws some serious pampering. Carry a tube in your purse, stash one in your car, or put one in your pocket for a handy dose of much-needed moisture and relief.
Your hands will feel instantly revived thanks to this indulgent Aesop Resurrection Aromatique Hand Balm. This hydrating balm does wonders for dry hands and cuticles, and has a bold botanical scent. We love the packaging too—so pretty displayed on a nightstand or your bathroom vanity.
We’re obsessed with the silky formula and beloved scent of this Byredo Gypsy Water Hand Cream. This luxe formula feels like a dream on your hands, and we can’t get enough of the fresh fragrance.
In a case of perfect timing, the crew at Glossier recently launched their new hand cream in a sleek, portable palm-sized pod. The nutrient-rich, fast-absorbing formula is scented with the brand’s signature Glossier You scent. One more Glossier goodie to love.
We carried a tube of this Grown Alchemist Intensive Hand Cream with us all around a trip to Europe, and we fell in love with the rich but non-greasy formula, the chic packaging, and the subtle Persian rose scent. It’s made with organic ingredients and is toxic- and cruelty-free.
This Lapcos First of May hand cream has the best scent and a rich shea butter formula, and it’s the perfect petite size to stash in your purse. There are other fragrances available, too, but this is our favorite.
