Three hand creams to keep the winter chill off your mitts
Vanessa Yung
Winter can dry out hands and nails but there are creams available to keep your mitts soft and sexy.
Billie Goat Soap’s Intensive Hand Cream (HK$68/75ml) is the answer to dehydrated and sensitive skin, thanks to a nourishing blend of goat’s milk – its signature ingredient – as well as nut oils, shea butter, glycerin, aloe vera and calendula extract. Initially formulated to help eczema sufferers, this Australian skincare range is available at Watsons Hong Kong.
RMK’s Nail & Hand Cream (HK$180/60g) has a nonsticky, citrus-scented formula designed to keep hands soft throughout the day. Rice and pear ferment extracts enhance hydration while mango seed butter and rosemary and lavender essences help repair damaged skin.
Keep The Body Shop’s British Rose Petal-Soft Hand Cream (HK$69/ 30ml; HK$159/100ml) in your handbag not only for the sake of your hands but also for revitalising the senses when you’re on the go. Handpicked organic roses are air-dried and infused into mountain water to make a high quality extract that helps keep hands moist, hydrated and wonderfully scented.
