O’Keeffe’s Working Hands, 96g Jar - Hand Cream for Extremely Dry, Cracked Hands | Instantly Boosts Moisture Levels, Creates a Protective Layer & Prevents Moisture Loss

I had some fissures (skin splitting) on the tips of my fingers from over washing my hands and the colder weather coming in.No matter how careful I was, they wouldn’t heal and kept reopening, it was very painful to use my hands for even typing on my laptop (your finger tips have a ton of nerve endings, so it can really be uncomfortable to have fissures like this).I’ve had these fissures for at least a month and a half - nothing seemed to work. I got this cream and within THREE DAYS the fissures stopped reopening, within five they had healed over. I can’t even SEE where they were any more (can just sort of feel the calloused area where they used to be and even those are getting softer over time).This cream is immediately moisturising, it absorbs fairly fast, leaves no residue and it leaves your skin incredibly smooth, even your knuckles and finger joints. My hands feel like baby skin after barely a week of having this.Also, incidentally, works very nice on elbows, knees and feet (absorbs a bit slower on feet and feels a bit greasy for half an hou, but great for smoothing on right before you go to sleep).Honestly this works better than any expensive luxury cream I have ever used. The lack of scent and fast absorption make it a joy to use and I find myself using it about ten times a day and my hands feel great again (and my elbows feel amazing!).Don’t bother with fancy scented cuticle oils and luxury brand hand creams. Go with the simple “does what it says on the tin” stuff like this, you’ll never go back.Advise to use after every hand wash, you don’t need a lot, just a wee tap into the tub with your fingers and a quick rub in does the job.

First off, great value for money as these are indeed 2 tubs of 96gr/100ml each.I usually get the same brand, but in the squeeze tube format and I was surprised when I opened this tub: the texture is a little different, thicker, more solid, if you like. It is still very easily spreadable and it absorbes quickly into the skin. Totally unscented. Extremely effective for dry, overworked hands, also suitable for rough elbows and cracked heels.Apparently even dermatologist Dr. Dray, of YouTube fame, enjoys and recommends it, especially for night masks for your hands (apply a little more than you normally would, spread and massage a little into the skin, wear a pair of cotton gloves overnight and wake-up in the morning to soft, supple hands).

I suffer from very dry skin due to medication side effects.This is excellent for keeping my hands moisturised without being greasy,A little goes a very long way and is quickly absorbed, leaving my hands smooth and non greasy.It's also very effective on other very dry skin areas such as behind my ears (a quick rub when doing the hands works wonders)And, although not designed for it, it works wonders on the heels of my feet.It's extremely rare I give five stars, so you can tell I'm very impressed. :)

I purchased this moisturiser to help keep dry hands at bay which is largely attributed to psoriasis.The pot is a good size, not to large and not to small making it ideal for daily use or compact enough for travel.It's completely odourless with a nice smooth texture that's just the right thickness when applying.It does as it should and helps to keep the skin moist and hydrated.I do like the cream and it is effective, but I do believe it's on the slightly higher price point in comparison to similar products of equal quality.That said, I would likely reorder and would recommend.

Darkness descends; the air is crisp and biting, carrying an icy sting that sharpens every breath. Winter is upon us. Even the warmth gloves provide feels temporary, a thin barrier against nature’s bite. As the season deepens, the frost lingers longer, coating everything in a pale sheen of ice. But it’s the impact on the skin that strikes most painfully.Your hands, once soft and supple, are now weathered. The tips of your fingers and knuckles feel raw as the icy air attacks them, drawing moisture out until they feel parched and brittle. Every time you try to move them, the skin pulls tight, as if it’s too stretched, too taut to bend properly. You can see the tiny cracks begin to form on the knuckles first — small, delicate fissures that deepen with every touch, as if the skin itself can no longer hold together. The cracks spread, thin lines snaking across the palms, while the cuticles become ragged and raw.The rough, irritated feeling is persistent, as if the skin is too thirsty to be soothed by any amount of traditional lotion. Despite trying to repair the damage, the cracks persist, with droplets of blood forming around the chasms that now mark your hands. The act of gripping becomes an effort, as the split skin stings and burns in protest. Each motion is a silent plea for relief that the winter air seems unwilling to give.Despite this agonising pain you continue to use inferior lotions desperate for relief, but relief escapes you like a jilted lover.WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, O’Keeffe’s Working Hands (OWH) comes into view, entering like a knight in shining armour, atop a grand spectral steed. OWH unsheathes his sword, battling the wintery forces than relentlessly attack your hands, holding them at bay. With each swipe of his glimmering weapon, nature is fought, and your hands begin to regain their senses.The miracle has been witnessed, your hands recovered, the winter forces subdued. OWH has saved the day.JOKES ASIDE. I always get extremely dry hands during winter. Over the years I've tried dozens of lotions to no avail. This was a miracle lotion, and not just because it works, but with the speed at which relief was provided. Within 2 days my hands were as good as new - you have won a loyal customer. 10/10

I suffer from cracked skin on my knuckles. I bought this hoping it’d help and it did.Easy to apply, not too sticky or greasy. A little bit of this stuff goes a long way. Found that it helps to moisturise the cracked area and made my knuckles feel much better. Good price and a good product.
