![]() ![]() As for the size, I think it's meant to be easy for travel and tossing into your purse, so I have no concern there. This product falls right around the typical price for a quality hand cream, so I definitely agree with the pricing. Unfortunately, I'm not totally sure that the anti-bacterial aspect of it lives up to expectations, so I still carry around my hand sanitizer. Plus, my cuticles were under control, which is great since I’m sans manicure this week. This product will help dry skin around the clock, not just during the first hour or two that you apply it. Even on days where I didn’t use the hand cream, my skin felt way smoother than usual. The most surprising thing to me, though, was the long-term benefits. Grown Alchemist succeeded in creating a lightweight, non-greasy formula. In the short term, this product made my hands feel noticeably silky smooth and hydrated. Ylang Ylang has flavonoid antioxidants, which can help fight against premature aging. Cedarwood contains cedrene and thujopsene, which helps hydrate and soothe. Two other ingredients-cedarwood and ylang ylang-are also beneficial and nourishing for the skin. Outside of the tea tree’s anti-bacterial properties, the oil can also help with inflammation and anti-aging. In other words, hold on to your hand sanitizer. “Tea tree oil has anti-bacterial properties however, to call this an anti-bacterial hand cream would be a drug claim, and tea tree is not classified as a drug.” So, while this product may contain anti-bacterial properties, putting that in the product’s name could be misleading for some. After reviewing the ingredient list, King told me that while this product does have a lot of nourishing ingredients, it isn’t technically an anti-bacterial hand cream. I tapped cosmetic chemist, Ginger King, to learn more about what makes this hand cream hydrating and clean. The Ingredients: Nourishing, clean, but potentially not anti-bacterial It isn’t overpowering but it does stay with you for a while, which I personally loved. ![]() The scent comes from the naturally-derived ingredients used in the product, so it smells very earthy and clean. I was convinced it would make me break out into a rash, but thankfully that wasn’t the case. This hand cream definitely has a scent, which made me nervous prior to using it. Does anybody else have this problem? Well, in case you do, I put it to the test and was able to open doors instantly after application. The absolute worst thing about hand creams, in my opinion, is when you go to open a door right after putting it on, and you are left resorting to using your elbows because your hands are just too slippery. The lightweight formula instantly absorbs into the skin, leaving hands soft and not slimy in the slightest. You can feel the soothing benefits of this hand cream the moment it touches your skin. I’ve never considered a hand cream helping with this problem, but I use a bit of cuticle oil to help keep my cuticles at bay. While it’s hard to admit, I have a habit of picking my cuticles, which is why I almost always have nail polish on. Also, I have extremely sensitive skin that is prone to breaking out in rashes at any given second, so using an unscented, clean hand cream is essential for me.Īdditionally, I’ve always had an issue with dry cuticles. Now, chemical-filled hand sanitizer has depleted my hands of hydration and I’ve been much more apt to use quality hand cream. Yes, every winter, they do get a bit dryer than usual, but it’s never really bothered me. I’ve never dealt with extremely dry, cracked hands until recently.
