Review: Started relieving sore, dry and cracked hands immediately! - Oh wow - this stuff is INCREDIBLE. It all started when I caught a cold just before Christmas. I was absolutely terrified of passing it to my young baby, so I started disinfecting my hands with hand sanitiser and excessively washing them every day. It didn't take long before they became dry, cracked and bleeding and even hand cream didn't help, it just stung. This persisted beyond the illness and my hands remained dry and sore, flaring up whenever washed or in contact with cleaners. They were so bad that even closing a fist would make them bleed. Bought this as a desperate attempt to soothe my hands after seeing reviews and WOW. I use a pump or two of this all over my hands before bed. On the first morning I noticed the soreness had already gone and my hands just looked dry. Just over a week later and my hands are completely back to normal, no dryness anywhere. It really resolves itching/soreness as quickly as people say. I had no idea a product could be this effective, especially as nothing else helped. This is absolutely worth the price. One or two pumps is more than sufficient to cover your hands as it is a fairly thick formula and a little goes a long way.
Review: Best body cream - My son had eczema after 2 months and this cream absolutely worked it's magic.. Still using it till now after 8 months and our skin is still fab. Would recommend

Perfect cream. It’s great for sensitive skin. My kids have perfect smooth skin because of this cream. It’s not greasy at all and the bottle will last a while.
