Final Verdict:
Like I said before my hands just cannot do without hand creams especially during winters.When I first applied it,I thought gel might not be moisturising enough to heal dry hands.It totally proved me wrong,it absorbed instantly and made my hands soft and smooth.I wouldn't suggest using hand cream using day as one tends to wash their hands frequently.I apply them before I go to bed.Morning I wake up to soft hands.You would be surprised,but only tiny amount of cream is required for both hands so the price seems justified.Did you know originally this hand cream for meant for fishermen in the sub-zero temperatures?The product delivers.I also like that it does not make my hands greasy.I think I might repurchase this hand cream and if you are looking for budget hand cream for this winters then totally go for it!
