16 Moisturizing Hand Creams for Soft, Smooth Hands
Winter, rude as ever, hits hard—both in terms of our skin and our general well-being (no one enjoys a 4 P.M. sunset). It’s especially rough for our hands, which take a beating between the dry air, harsh wind, and constant hand washing to avoid the office cold. Outside of hopping on the next flight to anywhere warm, we’re left with hand cream as the next best solution for chapped skin. Still, the risks lurk at every turn: hand cream can so easily go too wet, too thick, too thin, too slimy, too perfumey, too useless. Determined to find your best possible bets—and put an end to dry cuticles and scratchy skin—we polled Glamour‘s editors on their top hand cream picks, both old and new. They’re not quite a trip to Turks and Caicos, but then again, nothing is. Close your eyes, breathe your hand cream in deep, and we’ll get through this.
