Healing hands
Working as a nurse means you are constantly washing your hands. Hand washing while practising good hand hygiene is essential to you and your patient’s health. However, frequent contact with water, gloves, soap, chemicals and alcohol-based hand sanitiser can leave your skin dry, irritated or cracked. Over time, this can lead to flare ups, dermatitis or even psoriasis.Because of this, nurses’ hands are more prone to damage than most other professionals. Choosing the right hand lotion or hand cream is vital for skin restoration, protection, and comfort during long shifts.
Common skin conditions
Nurses’ overworked hands are in need of more than a basic or lightweight moisturiser. Our Tough Hands intensive hand repair cream is a heavy-duty, functional hand cream designed for:
- Dry skin and very dry skin
- Rough hands and cracked fingertips
- Peeling and calloused hands
Its non greasy, triple-action formulation contains natural AHAs to soften hard calluses. UREA works with sodium PCA and glycerin to deeply nourish dehydrated skin, while dimethicone forms a thin skin protectant barrier against environmental stressors and moisture loss.
Fragrance Free Option for Sensitive Skin
Tough Hands also comes in a fragrance free version. Unlike most hand lotions, Tough Hands Fragrance Free contains no added fragrance, making it the best choice for:
- Sensitive skin
- Irritated skin
- Those seeking a formula that is dermatology tested and dermatologist recommended
It soothes irritation, hydrates cracked hands, and supports healthy skin even with repeated hand washing.
Anti-Aging Care: Tough Hands for Her
If you’re looking for something extra from your hand cream, try our anti-aging formula, Tough Hands for Her. Infused with peptides to promote collagen production, it restores tired skin and reduces pigmentation. Niacinamide works to brighten the skin, making it perfect for nurses who want both protection and anti-aging benefits.
