Your hands tell their own story. Of work, of care of the countless small gestures that make up a day. But they are also the first to show neglect. Constant handwashing, hours spent in air conditioned offices, exposure to sanitisers and screens; modern life is particularly unkind to the skin on our hands.
The skin on our hands is thinner, contains fewer oil glands and is more exposed to environmental stressors than most other parts of the body. When left uncared for, it loses moisture rapidly, the barrier weakens and sensitivity increases. A well-formulated hand cream restores hydration, reinforces the barrier and protects against daily stressors.
Today’s best hand creams go beyond basic moisture. They absorb quickly, leave no residue on keyboards or steering wheels and deliver sensorial pleasure through texture and scent. From ceramides and shea butter to plant oils and peptides, formulations now mirror the sophistication of facial skincare. Whether slipped into a work tote or tucked away in your desk drawer, these are the hand creams worth carrying.
