Dealing with hands that feel dry, rough, or irritated from frequent washing and daily tasks is a common reality. This nourishing hand cream offers a simple, effective solution to restore comfort and softness.

• Who it's for: Anyone with dry, rough, or frequently washed hands.
• What it does: Deeply moisturizes, soothes irritation, and helps repair the skin barrier on your hands.
• Texture: A soft cream that absorbs quickly without a sticky or greasy feeling.
• Key Benefit: Forms a light protective layer to keep hands soft and hydrated throughout the day, even in Mauritius's variable climate.

1. Wash Hands: Start with clean, slightly damp hands.
2. Apply Cream: Squeeze a pea-sized amount of the Snail Hand Cream onto the back of one hand.
3. Massage In: Gently rub the backs of your hands together, then massage the cream into your palms, fingers, and cuticles until absorbed. Use as often as needed.

Mindful Consumption Note: If you already have a hand cream you're using, we encourage you to finish it first. This cream is an excellent replacement when you're ready, not an addition to a cluttered drawer.

• Amount: A pea-sized amount is sufficient for both hands.
• Frequency: Apply as needed throughout the day, paying special attention to post-handwashing when skin is most prone to dryness. A nightly application before bed can work wonders for overnight repair.
• Method: Apply to the back of one hand and use the back of your other hand to rub it in. This technique ensures the delicate skin on the backs of your hands gets the most benefit before the product is absorbed by your palms. Massage any remainder into knuckles and cuticles.

If-This / Then-That:

• Very dry or cracked hands? Apply a slightly thicker layer at night and consider wearing cotton gloves for 30 minutes to enhance absorption.
• Work with your hands a lot? Keep a tube at your desk or in your bag for quick, non-greasy top-ups during the day.

• Immediate: Hands feel instantly softer, soothed, and hydrated. The cream forms a comfortable, non-sticky film that reduces feelings of tightness.
• 1-2 Weeks: With regular use, you'll notice a sustained improvement in skin texture. Rough patches feel smoother, and hands are less prone to becoming dry and uncomfortable after washing.
• 4-8+ Weeks: The skin barrier on your hands becomes more resilient. You may notice that minor irritations heal faster and cuticles look healthier.

"Why a dedicated hand cream, not just body lotion?"

While body lotion can provide moisture, hand creams like this one are specifically formulated to absorb quickly without leaving a greasy residue, allowing you to get back to your tasks without slipping. They are also often richer in repairing ingredients to counteract the frequent washing and environmental exposure that hands endure.

• All Skin Types: Universally beneficial.
• Dry to Very Dry Hands: An excellent choice for providing immediate and lasting relief from dryness and roughness.
• Normal to Oily Hands: The non-greasy finish makes it comfortable for those who dislike the feeling of heavy creams.

• Dryness and Dehydration
• Rough, uneven texture
• Minor skin irritation
• Weakened skin barrier from frequent washing

Key Ingredients Explained:

• Snail Secretion Filtrate: The star ingredient. This naturally derived mucin is rich in glycoproteins, hyaluronic acid, and glycolic acid. It's known for its ability to hydrate, promote skin repair, and soothe inflammation. For hands, this means helping to heal minor cracks and leaving skin feeling exceptionally soft. (Ingredient Rationale)
• Glycerin: A fundamental humectant that draws moisture from the air into the skin, keeping hands hydrated and preventing tightness. (Ingredient Rationale)
• Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract: Renowned for its soothing and calming properties, aloe helps to reduce irritation and provides a layer of lightweight moisture. (Ingredient Rationale)

Full INCI List:

Water, Paraffinum Liquidum, Glycerin, Cetearyl Alcohol, Polysorbate 60, Carbomer, Triethanolamine, Sorbitan Sesquioleate, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Snail Secretion Filtrate, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Cornus Officinalis Fruit Extract, Chaenomenes Sinensis Fruit Extract, Parfum.

• Preservative System: Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Propylparaben.
• Alcohol-Free: Formulated without ethanol or denatured alcohol. Contains Cetearyl Alcohol, which is a fatty alcohol that acts as a gentle emollient and is non-drying.

• Fragrance Status: Contains added fragrance ("Parfum").
• Scent Profile: Users describe the scent as a light, clean, and pleasant fresh fragrance. Intensity is typically rated as low (1-2/5).
• EU Allergens: None declared by the brand from the standard EU allergen list. However, as it contains generic "Parfum," a patch test is always advised for those with fragrance sensitivities.

• For external use only. Keep out of reach of children.
• Avoid contact with eyes. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
• Do not use on broken or irritated skin. Discontinue use if a rash, redness, or itching occurs. Consult a doctor if irritation persists.
• Patch Test Protocol: Before first use, apply a pea-sized amount to a small, clean area of skin, such as the inner wrist. Wait 24-48 hours. If no irritation occurs, the product is likely safe for you to use.

• Texture: A smooth, lightweight cream.
• Finish: Absorbs well, leaving a soft, hydrated, non-greasy finish.
• Scent: Light, fresh, and clean.
• pH: Not published by the brand, but typically hand creams are formulated within the skin's natural pH range (approx. 5.5-6.5).
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Compatibility: Contains Polysorbate 60 and Sorbitan Sesquioleate, which may pose a risk for those with fungal acne. However, this is generally not a concern for the skin on the hands.

• "My hands still feel dry after application." Ensure you are using enough product and applying it consistently, especially after every time you wash your hands. Applying to slightly damp skin can also help lock in extra moisture.
• "The cream feels a bit slow to absorb." You may be using too much. A pea-sized amount is usually all that's needed. Focus on massaging it into the backs of your hands first.

This hand cream is well-suited for Mauritius's year-round climate. Its lightweight, non-greasy formula provides necessary hydration without feeling heavy or sticky in high humidity. Hands can become dry from sun exposure, salty air, and indoor air-conditioning, making this an essential item for daily comfort and skin health maintenance on the island.

At Adilsons, we guarantee 100% authenticity. This product is sourced directly from authorized distributors in South Korea. The packaging features a mix of Korean and English text, a valid batch code, and a standard 100ml tube format. If you ever have any doubts about a product's authenticity, we invite you to contact us directly via WhatsApp for verification.

The benefits of this hand cream are primarily supported by Ingredient Rationale.

• Snail Secretion Filtrate is widely studied and recognized in cosmetology for its hydrating, soothing, and regenerative properties, attributed to its natural composition of hyaluronic acid, glycoproteins, and peptides.
• The inclusion of humectants like Glycerin and emollients like Paraffinum Liquidum are standard, evidence-based practices for creating effective moisturizing formulas that prevent transepidermal water loss.

This product contains Snail Secretion Filtrate. While many K-beauty brands, including those in the affordable sector, source their mucin through methods designed to be stress-free for the snails (e.g., allowing them to crawl over mesh in a dark, calm environment), specific sourcing methods for this product are not publicly disclosed. This product is therefore not suitable for those following a vegan lifestyle.

With a generous 100ml size, this hand cream offers excellent value. Using a pea-sized amount (approx. 0.5ml) per application:

• If used 2 times per day, one tube provides approximately 200 uses and should last around 3 months.
• If used 4 times per day, it provides approximately 200 uses and should last around 1.5 months.

We recommend reordering when you have about a quarter of the tube remaining.

Simple Hand Care Duo

• APLB Glutathione Niacinamide Body Wash 300ml — Use this gentle, brightening body wash as a nourishing hand soap to cleanse without stripping moisture.
• [THIS PRODUCT] — Follow up immediately after washing to lock in hydration and repair the skin barrier.

This hand cream is an excellent choice for all-around hydration and repair. However, if you have different primary concerns, consider these alternatives from our catalog:

• For an Anti-Aging Focus: 3W CLINIC Moisturizing Collagen Hand Cream — Choose this if you're concerned about loss of elasticity and fine lines on your hands. Why: It's formulated with hydrolyzed collagen to help improve skin firmness and suppleness.
• For a Brightening Boost: 3W CLINIC Moisturizing Lemon Hand Cream — Choose this if you have dull skin or minor dark spots on your hands. Why: It contains lemon extract, a natural source of Vitamin C, to help brighten and even out skin tone.

Mindful Use Reminder: If you already have a hand cream you enjoy that addresses your concerns, there's no need to add another right now. Finish what you have first to avoid waste and get a true sense of its results.

• Packaging: Comes in a 100ml soft plastic squeeze tube with a screw-on cap.
• Hygiene: The tube format is hygienic, preventing contamination of the product.
• Recyclability: The plastic tube is generally recyclable in Mauritius, but please check with your local facilities. The cap is also plastic.
• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme heat to maintain formula integrity.

Note: The following are aggregated sentiments from online communities and do not reflect medical advice.

• "This handcream is lovely, provides good moisture and is absorbed into the skin quickly. Highly recommend as it is generally at a good price." — Paraphrased from a Strawberrynet review (2019).
• "Snail extracts in the cream alleviate skin irritations and is readily absorbed into skin to make it soft and moist. A non-sticky protective layer prevents the formation of rough skin." — Paraphrased from the editor's note on YesStyle.
• Fair Caveat: Some users with very sensitive noses may find the light fragrance noticeable, though most describe it as pleasant and not overpowering. The formula also contains parabens as preservatives, which some consumers prefer to avoid.

Is this hand cream sticky or greasy?

No, it is specifically formulated to absorb quickly and leave a soft, non-greasy finish, making it comfortable for daytime use.
