   This is a decent moisturizer — it’s really thick, but blends in pretty well compared to most hand moisturizers. (Some of them feel way too greasy in comparison.) It has good ingredients, and the smell is fairly pleasant (smells kind of like a subtle peach scent).

   The main issues I had with it:

   1. The tube it’s in is very unwieldy/stiff. Particularly after you get about halfway through with it, you have to bend and squeeze it harder than you would with a normal moisturizer tube material. If you have arthritis, carpal tunnel, tendonitis, etc it’s extra difficult, but even for someone without any physical issues like that, it would be annoying to have to squeeze/manipulate the tube so much to get some out when it’s not even close to empty. Also, the edges of the bottom of the tube ends are very sharp.

   2. It feels like it works really well when you first put it on, but even applying it many times per day, it didn’t feel like it made a huge lasting improvement on dry hands. There was definitely some improvement, but not quite as much as I’ve had with some of the competing versions.

   I’ve been using this on my heels and elbows and it works better than anything else I’ve tried. I had a crack on my heel that was very painful and now in three days it’s gone.

   I haven’t used it for long, so I can’t say much about the tube it comes in, but I can see where it might become a problem, so I’m giving it four stars instead of five.

   My main issue is that this moisturizer is very, very scented. I actually washed my hands because the smell is so strong. As a moisturizer it was so-so. I would not buy this again. If you are fragrance-sensitive, try before you buy if possible.
