Lanolin is not necessarily for everyone, but if you don't happen to have a sensitivity to it, it's a gamechanger. Lanolin is basically an wax coating that helps keep sheeps' wool water-resistant and safe from the elements — and it works much the same way for your hands. It creates an all-natural barrier for your hands to keep them as cozy and comfy as, well, a wooly sheep. It also helps that Lano's line up of creams smell absolutely amazing (especially this yummy coconut version).
This derm-approved hand cream is quite the workhorse: Thanks to proven emollients like petrolatum and coconut oil, as well as soothing botanicals like aloe and calendula, it really is perfect for "fixing" your dry hands.
Though it has a lighter texture than some of the others on this list, this hand cream is still majorly hydrating. It boasts a decadently silky feel that rehabs even the driest of hands in a snap of your fingers.
This may be formulated specially for diabetics — but don't let that stop you from using it. It's extra gentle and extra hydrating and it's even fragrance-free, which makes it a great pick for sensitive skin. Plus, the balmy texture locks in moisture like no other; even lasting through multiple hand-washings.
In addition to 18 percent shea butter, this hand cream is packed with anti-aging ingredients like skin-firming retinol, as well as brightening vitamin C and licorice extract. Get ready for your softest (and best-looking) hands yet!
