When should you use hand + body cream?
We recommend using the hand + body cream regularly or whenever your skin feels dry, tight, or in need of extra hydration and nourishment. For best results, apply it:
- After washing your hands to replenish moisture lost from soap and water
- After showering or bathing to lock in hydration while your skin is still damp
- Before bed for deep overnight moisture
- Throughout the day as needed, especially in dry or cold weather
- On targeted areas like cuticles, elbows, knees, and heels for extra hydration
What does a nourishing hand + body cream do?
Defying Gravity™️ Nourishing Hand + Body Cream is formulated with rich ingredients like mango seed butter, hyaluronic acid, and Barrier Restore Complex™ to lock in moisture, help improve elasticity, and create a protective moisture barrier against dryness. Over time, a moisturizing hand cream can enhance skin texture, soothe skin, and keep hands and body soft and smooth, promoting long-lasting comfort and resilience.
