Is O'Keeffe's Working Hands greasy?

No. It is formulated to absorb without a slippery residue, though it feels thick going on and can be slightly tacky for a few minutes.

Does it have a scent?

It is unscented. There is no added fragrance, so it won't clash with perfume or irritate most sensitive skin.

How often should I apply it?

Apply to dry skin as often as needed, especially after washing hands. Most users see improvement within a few days of regular use.

Is it good for very cracked hands?

Yes. It is made for severely dry, cracked hands and forms a barrier that holds moisture through hand washing. For deep splits, apply generously at night.

How does it compare with Neutrogena Norwegian Formula?

Both are concentrated barrier creams. O'Keeffe's is unscented and a bit thicker; Norwegian Formula is more gel-like and also fragrance-free. Either works well for cracked hands.

Can I use it on other dry areas?

It is designed for hands, but many people also use it on elbows, knees and feet. It is thick enough for those areas.
