Highlights

  • Best for: Normal skin

Details & care

What it is: A maximum-strength moisturizer for dry, active hands.

What it does: It helps protect against and repair the appearance of severe dryness caused by heavy industrial work, manual labor, neglect or exposure to harsh elements. The salve allows the skin to draw and absorb water from the air, forming a glovelike protective barrier against moisture loss. It's formulated with a blend of botanical oils and natural wax derived from olive oil to soothe, moisturize and condition skin.

How to use: To address severe dryness, apply hand salve liberally to clean hands. For best results, reapply to hands after washing.

  • Paraben-free
  • Made in the USA
  • Item #5688037

Winter Relief
We live in the Midwest and this winter has been a harsh one. Our skin really suffers with the super dry air from using the heater to keep us warm in the below-zero weather. My husband's hands get dry from all the shoveling of snow and just everyday exposure to cold and heat and dry air. Kiehl's hand cream has been a nice relief for his cracking/chapping skin hands. He puts it on his hands at bedtime to hydrate his hands.

No better than others
I don't understand all the great reviews—have to wonder if they are legit. This is no better than a drugstore brand!

Deal? No
Great lotion, but be cautious—this isn't the bargain you'd expect from Nordstrom Rack. It’s actually a regular-priced item, just like you’d find directly from the manufacturer. Don’t let the impulse buy section mislead you; NR is selling it at full retail!

My favorite hand cream
This is the best hand cream, hands down. Nothing works better on winter dry hands than this. It has a pleasant, non offensive scent and ins't greasy at all.
