Great hand lotion

April 16, 2008, 3:04 pm I live in an arid climate, and the winters are especially dry! Dry cuticles and knuckles and a tendency to get more paper cuts are all signs that my hands are too dry. I’ve been keeping this cream and my desk to help remind me to use it and I’ve definitely noticed a reduction in paper cuts! This is a great desk lotion too, because it isn’t greasy. It’s hard to use a pen or even type sometimes after I’ve applied a thick, greasy hand cream. This stuff really is fast absorbing and works as well as a thicker cream, without the grease. It’s packed with great moisturizers: soy milk, monoi oil, coconut oil, sweet almond oil and vitamin E and has a very light, fresh scent. I’d love to find a smaller bottle to keep in my purse.3 of 3 people found this review helpful.

I keep this product in my purse
by AgnesC (29 reviews)
As I mature , i find that my skin has become both dry and sensitive. Curel's found the answer for me! I particularly like that it is absorbed quickly and leaves no "greasy" feel. The price is great . I often share this with friends and strangers alike . May 29, 2008, 1:06 am1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

Love this cream !
by ciaragirl (12 reviews)In the winter my hands and cuticles are very dry. This cream is wonderful! My hands are soft and all signs of chapness is gone. My husband usually has such dry hands in winter that the skin cracks. Well, this year he didn't get dry at all because he used this cream twice a day. I would highly recomnd this cream.

hard to find.
by coriwestphal (10 reviews)I recieved a sample size of this in the mail and loved it. A little greasy but very absorbant. Really moisturizes. The only problem is I spent about a month looking in a score of different stores before I finally found it. Hard to find but worth the wait!

Good hand cream

As the product claims, this cream absorbs into my hands quickly, and it gives good moisture. The cream is not as thick or rich as some other intensive hand lotion or balm.

But if you prefer light cream, this is a good pick. Unfortunately, I have not noticed a major improvement on my cuticles. It is still worth the pretty low price.0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

July 19, 2008, 2:01 pm This hand lotion make my hand instantly soft feeling and young looking for hours. I use this at work where the harsh soap in the lady's room tends to dry out my hands. This lotion works very well. You only need a tiny pea sized amount to soothe dry hands, any more than that and it won't absorb that well, and you'll end up putting it up to your elbows which I suppose can't hurt. I have even used on my chapped lips, in a pinch.0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

Good, but no delivery
by wcubuffyfan (7 reviews)I bought this stuff to keep on my desk at work, because my hands get dried out really quick and my cuticles are constantly splitting. I use it everyday, atleast twice a day to be honest, and I haven't seen that much of an improvement in my cuticles or hands. I will grant that my cuticles don't split or crack as much, but ... June 11, 2008, 5:48 am I bought this stuff to keep on my desk at work, because my hands get dried out really quick and my cuticles are constantly splitting. I use it everyday, atleast twice a day to be honest, and I haven't seen that much of an improvement in my cuticles or hands. I will grant that my cuticles don't split or crack as much, but the claim "noticeably softens hands & cuticles with just one use." is way off. After about 3 or 4 days, I noticed a difference in my cuticles. However, it wasn't so significant a change that I cancelled my appointment with my manicurist, who still mentioned how dry and brittle my cuticles looked. My hands are a little softer, and they stay moisturized throughout the day, but I think any lotion would be able to do that.0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

Great lotion for everyday use
by bellydancefae (18 reviews)As a habitual fingernail/hangnail picker, I'm constantly trying different hand and cuticle creams to prevent the dry skin that feeds my bad habit. I just bought this product last week and I love that it is so non-greasy, yet light and very moisturizing. It absorbs quickly, lasts a long time, and doesn't cake up if you apply... June 10, 2008, 10:31 am As a habitual fingernail/hangnail picker, I'm constantly trying different hand and cuticle creams to prevent the dry skin that feeds my bad habit. I just bought this product last week and I love that it is so non-greasy, yet light and very moisturizing. It absorbs quickly, lasts a long time, and doesn't cake up if you apply again for extra protection. It conditions my cuticles almost instantly, so is preventing my usual hangnails and peeling fingertips. While small enough to fit in an everyday purse, it contains a lot of product and because it spreads so easily, it's going to last me a good while. It's also great for taming flyaway hairs and for putting on elbows, knees, heels...wherever is feeling a little dry during the day.0 of 0 people found this review helpful.
