Until I found the Simplicité Nourishing Hand and Nail Creme my hands, or rather my split fingertips, occupied my mind almost daily. This had usually only happened in winter (I live in Chicago) but had started to occur all year round. My family members have the same very, very painful problem. It's been extremely frustrating because NOTHING I tried would prevent the splitting or even repair it properly.

I’ve tried so many hand cream brands, some created especially for this job — as well as prescription creams and topical steroids. I’ve worn gloves overnight and smeared oil on my hands. I tried petroleum jelly under gloves, also paraffin dips. These would work in the short term but didn't do a thing after that.

So, then I was given the Simplicité Nourishing Hand & Nail Creme in a testing situation. I certainly didn't expect any better outcome than from all the other hand creams and lotions I'd used.

I was so wrong! Almost immediately I was amazed by this hand cream.

I used it the first night and, in the morning, I noticed a difference in my hands and fingertips — they seemed to be getting better. Then in just a few days the cracks had gone and the cuticles looked healthier, smoother.

So, then I put the hand cream on my very dry and scaly feet and heels — same thing, in the morning they looked vastly improved.

I find this astonishing as I’ve never seen results like this with anything I’ve used on my hands and feet — and certainly not this fast. Since then, I’ve been using the hand creme religiously on both hands and feet and I'm blown away by the amazing improvement for both.

The other thing is that this isn't a sticky cream - it's thick but it absorbs easily and isn't greasy. It isn't a problem to apply it at work and then keep on typing. I actually put some on a little time ago while I type this review, and all I'm experiencing is beautifully smooth and supple skin on my hands and fingers.

The price is on the high-end for a hand cream or lotion, and I asked myself if I would pay that much for one.  Because of its amazing healing and prevention properties and the improvement I’ve seen in my hands and feet (a chronic problem that I’ve had for decades), I’d have to say yes, it’s worth it to me.  

So, I order it from Simplicité in Australia, and they post it to me in Chicago :)
