*Self-assessed by Adilsons based on available ingredient data (no ethanol/denat.; no haram animal-derived ingredients detected).

• Who it's for: Anyone seeking an affordable, daily hand cream to combat dryness, roughness, and dull skin on their hands.
• What it feels like: A lightweight, smooth cream that sinks in quickly without leaving a sticky or greasy film. Features a bright, refreshing lemon scent.
• What it does: Instantly moisturises and soothes tight, dry hands. Over time, it helps to soften rough skin and brighten the overall skin tone on the hands.
• In short: A daily essential for keeping hands comfortable, soft, and visibly brighter, perfectly suited for the Mauritian climate.

Frequency: As often as needed throughout the day. We recommend applying at least morning and night, and always after washing your hands.

• Apply to: Hands, nails, and cuticles.
• Method: Rub the backs of your hands together, then massage the cream all over, paying special attention to dry knuckles and cuticles until fully absorbed.

Pro-Tips for Mauritius:

• Office & Car: Keep a tube at your desk or in your car to rehydrate hands after exposure to dry air-conditioning.
• Intensive Night Treatment: Before bed, apply a slightly thicker layer to act as an overnight "hand mask" for deep nourishment.
• After Sanitiser: Always follow up alcohol-based hand sanitiser with this cream to replenish lost moisture and protect your skin barrier.

• Immediately: Hands feel noticeably softer, smoother, and relieved from any feeling of tightness. The skin looks hydrated and feels comfortable with a non-greasy finish.
• Within 1-2 Weeks: With consistent use, especially after washing, the skin barrier on your hands will feel more resilient and less prone to dryness. Cuticles will appear healthier and more nourished.
• Within 4-8+ Weeks: You may notice a subtle improvement in the brightness and evenness of the skin tone on the back of your hands, thanks to the combination of consistent moisture and the brightening properties of Lemon Extract.

Replace the Myth: "Using hand cream in Mauritius' humidity will just make my hands feel sticky and greasy."

With the Truth: This lightweight formula is specifically designed to absorb quickly without a heavy or tacky residue. It provides essential moisture that actually helps your skin feel more comfortable in the heat. Skipping hand cream, especially after washing, can lead to a damaged skin barrier, making hands feel tight, irritated, and look prematurely aged over time.

• ✅ Works Well With: This is a straightforward hand cream that fits into any routine. It's particularly effective when used after hand washing or after alcohol-based sanitisers have fully dried to restore moisture.
• ⚠️ Use Carefully With: No specific ingredients are known to conflict with this hand cream. Its primary function is to moisturise and protect the skin on your hands.
• ❌ Avoid On: Do not apply to your face; it is not formulated for delicate facial skin and the fragrance may be irritating. Avoid use on broken, wounded, or eczematous skin, as the fragrance and lemon extract could cause stinging.

• Oily Skin: Excellent. The non-greasy formula provides hydration without adding shine.
• Dry Skin: Excellent. Provides immediate relief and helps maintain moisture levels throughout the day.
• Combination Skin: Excellent. Balances the skin on the hands effectively.
• Sensitive Skin: Use with caution. While generally gentle, the presence of fragrance and natural lemon extract means a patch test is recommended for highly reactive skin.
• Acne-Prone Skin: Suitable for hands. Not recommended for use on the face or other acne-prone areas of the body.

• Dryness & Roughness: Provides lasting moisture to soften rough knuckles and dry patches.
• Dull Skin Tone: Lemon Extract helps to gradually brighten the skin on the back of the hands for a more even-toned appearance.
• Dehydration: Replenishes water content lost from frequent hand washing and sanitiser use.
• Cuticle Health: Nourishes and softens cuticles, promoting healthier-looking nails.

Your safety is our priority. Please follow these guidelines for the best experience.

General Safety:

• For external use only.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• Avoid direct contact with eyes. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
• Do not apply to broken, inflamed, or eczematous skin.
• If you experience a severe reaction such as a persistent rash, swelling, or burning, discontinue use immediately and consult a healthcare professional.

Patch Test Protocol for Sensitive Skin:

1. Apply a small, pea-sized amount of the cream to a clean, discreet area of skin, such as the inside of your wrist or elbow.
2. Wait for 24 hours. A mild tingling is not unusual, but if you experience any significant redness, itching, or irritation, wash the area and do not use the product.
3. If no reaction occurs after 24 hours, the product is likely safe for you to use on your hands.

• Texture: A smooth, classic cream texture that is neither too thick nor too runny. Spreads easily across the skin.
• Finish: Absorbs within a minute, leaving skin feeling soft, hydrated, and comfortable with no greasy or sticky residue.
• Scent: A refreshing and clean citrus (lemon) fragrance.
• pH: Not publicly disclosed by the brand, but typically formulated to be close to the skin's natural pH (around 5.5 - 6.5).
• Formulation Notes: This is a classic oil-in-water emulsion. It contains parabens (Methylparaben, Propylparaben) as preservatives. It is formulated without drying alcohols like ethanol or alcohol denat.

• Issue: "The cream feels a bit slow to absorb or slightly greasy."
  Solution: You are likely using too much product. A small, pea-sized amount is sufficient for both hands. Start with less and add more only if needed. Applying to slightly damp hands can also speed up absorption.
• Issue: "My hands still feel dry shortly after applying."
  Solution: Increase the frequency of application. The key to combating hand dryness is consistent reapplication, especially after every time you wash your hands. For an intensive boost, apply a thicker layer at night before sleep.

This hand cream is an excellent choice for the Mauritian climate for several reasons:

• Humidity-Friendly: Its lightweight, fast-absorbing texture provides necessary moisture without feeling heavy, sticky, or occlusive in high humidity.
• AC & Sun Recovery: It effectively combats the drying effects of both indoor air-conditioning and outdoor sun exposure, making it a versatile daily essential.
• Refreshing Scent: The bright, clean lemon fragrance is particularly pleasant and refreshing in warm, tropical weather.

The formulation of this hand cream is based on established skincare principles for moisturisation and brightening.

• Occlusive & Emollient Action (Ingredient Rationale): The inclusion of Mineral Oil and Cetearyl Alcohol provides effective occlusive and emollient properties. Occlusives form a protective barrier on the skin to prevent transepidermal water loss (TEWL), which is the primary mechanism for keeping skin hydrated and soft.
• Brightening Potential (Ingredient Rationale): Lemon (Citrus Limon) Fruit Extract is included for its natural Vitamin C content. Vitamin C is a well-documented antioxidant that can help protect skin from free radical damage and, with consistent use, inhibit the enzyme tyrosinase, which is involved in melanin production. This can lead to a gradual brightening of dull skin and an improvement in uneven skin tone.
• Soothing Hydration (Ingredient Rationale): Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract is widely used in cosmetics for its proven soothing, anti-inflammatory, and hydrating properties, making it ideal for skin exposed to daily stressors.

• Size: 100ml
• Estimated Uses: Approximately 200 uses.
• How Long It Lasts: With a pea-sized amount (~0.5ml) used twice daily, one tube will last approximately 100 days, or just over 3 months. If you reapply frequently throughout the day (e.g., 4-5 times), expect it to last around 1.5 to 2 months.
• Reorder Cue: When the tube starts to feel less full and requires more effort to squeeze, it's a good time to reorder to ensure you're never without your hand care essential.

Create a complete head-to-toe care routine by pairing your hand cream with these essentials.

For Complete Hand & Foot Care:

• DERMA: B UREA 9.8 FOOT CREAM 80ML — While this cream cares for your hands, the Derma:B foot cream uses Urea to effectively soften tough calluses and cracked heels.
• A'pieu HONEY & MILK LIP SCRUB — Don't forget your lips! Gently exfoliate with this scrub before applying a balm for soft, smooth lips.

For a Brightening Body Routine:

• APLB GLUTATHIONE NIACINAMIDE BODY WASH 300ML — Start your brightening routine in the shower with this body wash that targets dullness and uneven tone.
• 3W CLINIC MOISTURIZING LEMON HAND CREAM — Continue the brightening care on your hands throughout the day.
• DERMA: B EVERYDAY SUN BLOCK SPF50+ PA++++ 200ML — Protect your hands and body from UV rays, which cause dark spots and aging. Sunscreen is essential to see brightening results.

This hand cream is an excellent and highly affordable choice for daily moisturising with a refreshing scent. However, your ideal product depends on your specific needs.

• For More Intensive Repair: 3W CLINIC MOISTURIZING SNAIL HAND CREAM — Choose this if your hands are very damaged, or you have issues with peeling cuticles and slow-healing skin. Snail Mucin is renowned for its regenerative and repairing properties.
• For Anti-Aging Focus: 3W CLINIC MOISTURIZING COLLAGEN HAND CREAM — Choose this if your primary concern is improving the firmness and elasticity of the skin on your hands.
• For a Weekly Treatment: THE FACE SHOP RICH HAND V SPECIAL CARE HAND MASK — Choose this if you're looking for an intensive, spa-like treatment to deeply nourish your hands once a week, rather than a daily cream.

Mindful Use Reminder: If you already have a comparable hand cream at home, we encourage you to finish it first before purchasing a new one. This helps reduce waste and allows you to get a fair assessment of the results from your current product.

• Format: A 100ml squeeze tube with a secure flip-top cap, which prevents leaks and keeps the product hygienic.
• Material: The tube is made of soft, flexible plastic (PE/PP).
• Sustainability in Mauritius: Plastic packaging can be recycled locally. Please rinse the tube once empty and dispose of it in your yellow recycling bin.
• Storage: Store at room temperature in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the formula's freshness and efficacy. Do not store it in a hot car.
• Travel-Friendliness: The 100ml size complies with international flight regulations for carry-on liquids, making it a perfect travel companion.

Note: The following are aggregated sentiments from real users on international platforms. These are personal experiences and not official claims.

• The Scent & Feel (YesStyle review, 2024-03): Many users praise the "fresh and zesty" lemon scent, describing it as uplifting and not artificial. The texture is consistently reviewed as "lightweight and non-greasy," absorbing quickly so you can get back to your day without sticky hands.
• Moisturising Power (Amazon customer review, 2024-05): A common theme is that it's "surprisingly moisturizing for such a light cream." One user mentioned it effectively soothed their dry hands from frequent washing without the heavy feeling of other creams.
• Value for Money (Reddit, r/AsianBeauty, 2023-11): Across forums, this hand cream is celebrated for its excellent value. Users frequently comment that "a little goes a long way" and that the large 100ml tube "lasts for ages," making it a budget-friendly staple.
• A Fair Caveat: Some users with extreme sensitivity to fragrances have noted that while pleasant, the scent can be a bit strong for them. As with any fragranced product, a patch test is always a good idea if you have reactive skin.

Emollient

Occlusive

Is this hand cream greasy?
No, it is specifically formulated to be lightweight and fast-absorbing, leaving your hands feeling soft and hydrated without a greasy or sticky residue.

Can I use this cream on my face?
We do not recommend it. This cream is formulated for the thicker skin on your hands and contains a level of fragrance that may be irritating to the more delicate skin on your face.

Does it contain drying alcohol?
No, this product is free from drying alcohols like ethanol or alcohol denat. It contains Cetearyl Alcohol, which is a fatty alcohol that acts as a gentle emollient to help soften and moisturise the skin.

Will it significantly lighten dark spots on my hands?
The lemon extract, rich in Vitamin C, can help to gradually brighten your overall skin tone with consistent, long-term use. However, for significant dark spots caused by sun damage, the most effective strategy is to consistently wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen on your hands every day.

• Best For: Anyone needing an affordable, effective, and pleasant-to-use daily hand cream for normal to dry hands.
• Key Benefits: Absorbs quickly without greasiness, provides instant softness and relief from dryness, has a refreshing lemon scent, and offers excellent value for its size.
• Keep in Mind: It contains added fragrance and parabens as preservatives. Users with very sensitive skin or specific ingredient sensitivities should perform a patch test before regular use.
