It is praised for its non-greasy, quick-absorbing formula that provides relief for dry, cracked hands. Many guests appreciate its ability to restore the skin barrier and its fragrance-free nature.

    Great hand cream

    My hands are very dry. I wash them multiple times a day whether I'm cooking, cleaning, & for general hygiene. This CeraVe hand cream works really well on my dried out hands. For a cream, I thought it'd be thick, but it's lightweight & silky. It is very moisturizing. My hands feel so good after I put this on them. They look & feel softer too. It's fragrance free & absorbs without feeling greasy. This bottle is easy to take on the go.

    Not my favorite, I really prefer the regular moisturizing cream. This is thin and seals in lotion if you already have it on but it doesn’t feel moisturizing on its own. It has a sunscreen smell too.

    Disappointed - 1 month ago, Verified purchaser
    I use several Cerave products. This is my first experience with their therapeutic hand cream. To start, it's more like a lotion and I almost sqeezed out too much thinking it was the consistency of a cream. It absorbed after several minutes post application. My hands felt less dry, but not deeply moisturized. Their body cream is a better moisturizer.

    This is a must have inexpensive, unscented, hand cream. It is a medium viscosity and quickly sinks into the skin. Your skin is moisturized without feeling greasy, so I use it year round. I use it most often at the office, but found myself missing it at home so recently purchased multiple bottles to keep at the places I go to most. I recommend this hand cream to anyone, and it’s easy to squeeze out of the tube. The cap stays attached to the tube, so you don’t have to worry about losing it in the car or on the go.

    It states that it is non greasy but it is indeed greasy and I don’t feel like it moisturizes my hands well all I can focus on was that the top of my hands still felt dry and the bottom of my hands felt greasy. Would not buy again.

    Probably not the products fault, but I had an allergic reaction. The first time I tried it, I noticed the back of my hands felt itchy for a day before I got blustery bumps in clusters. I wasn’t convinced it was the lotion, so I tried again a few weeks later- the rash was not as severe this time, but still got itchy with small, raised bumps.

    The only hand cream that doesnt burn. During the winter I get really dry skin on my hands and as a waitress having to wash my hands so often my hands get so red and itchy and swollen. Even aquaphor burns when I apply it. This cream has made a difference. It is lightweight so I have to apply it a lot, I wish they would have a bigger size. I LOVE that it doesnt contain any alcohols

    Made my hands so much drier than they even were before. They’re literally peeling and cracking now, and they weren’t doing that before. It’s super runny for a “cream” and leaves your hands feeling greasy before it dries up soon after application. I’m actually really confused how this product did everything opposite of what a hand cream should do.

    The Cerave therapeutic handcream has been a lifesaver in the winter time. I have very dry skin so on days where my hands need a little extra hydration, I always turn into this. It’s formulated with dimethicone, 3 essential ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide. I’ve been using this for years and it really does help to deeply moisturize and restore the skin barrier. I think that the texture of the cream is a bit thick, which differs from other reviews that it’s lightweight and has a non-greasy finish. While I don’t think it feels greasy on the skin, it does take a couple minutes for the product of fully absorb. Still, I really enjoy using this handcream and I think it’s a great product for dry skin.

    I have an issue where my hands tend to peel really bad, usually when the seasons change but it’s the worst in the winter. I have tried so many lotions and other remedies to try to fix it and this is the only thing that has worked for me! I used to hate hand lotions because they would take awhile for my hands to stop feeling greasy or slick, but this absorbs very very quickly and does not leave my hands feeling like I can’t touch anything.

    Love their other products but, not a fan of this one. I am keeping it but it feels weird when you put it on. It doesn’t feel like it has moisturized my skin but, makes my hands feel like they have turned into plastic. I won’t be buying it again. I’ll stick with the Aveeno Skin Relief Hand Cream in the tube. It’s fantastic and works great but is hard to find.

    For reference, I have dry skin and tend to get hangnails and have dry cuticles. I really want to like this hand cream because I love CeraVe products, but this one is just okay. The consistency is a little more runny and watery, but it applies smoothly and dries down quickly. It doesn’t leave my skin oily, sticky, or greasy. It makes my skin feel smooth and matte. On the negative side, I often feel like I need to re-apply soon after the first application because it doesn’t feel moisturizing enough. And my cuticles still feel dry. It also has a somewhat strong chemical scent when applying. Once dried on my skin, it’s not too bad. For the price, I don’t think I’ll re-purchase this hand cream.

    Worked very fast in healing my dry hands, I had very dry healing scabs on back of hand that went away in a day. My fingertips especially my thumbs can get very dry n crack open and they have kept them so hydrated my hands look so good as I’ve never had them with other lotions. Yes it is a thin consistency but works great!!
