- Is this hand cream good for very dry, cracked hands?
- Yes. It is a rich cream built for dry skin, with horse oil and ceramides forming a protective layer. It works best applied to damp hands and left to absorb, especially overnight.
- Does it feel greasy?
- It is heavier than most lotions and takes a few minutes to sink in. Use a small amount and rub it in well, or save it for evening use if you dislike residue.
- Is it scented?
- Yes, it has a noticeable fragrance. People sensitive to scent should test a small amount first or look for an unscented hand cream.
- What is horse oil and is it suitable for vegetarians?
- Horse oil is a traditional Japanese moisturizer derived from horse fat. It is an animal product, so it is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans.
- Can I use it on my face?
- It is formulated as a hand cream and is too rich for most faces. Keep it for hands, cuticles and other very dry spots like elbows.
- How does it compare with a plain drugstore hand cream?
- It is denser and more protective, with CICA and niacinamide added. A basic lotion absorbs faster and suits daytime use, while this one is better for serious dryness.
