a little goes a long way [SEP] i m an excessive hand washer to begin with but covid has left my hands raw and dry i apply a tiny dab of this cream to my cuticles and massage it in and it s so soothing i use my regular hand lotion and then a thin layer of this on top of my palms and the backs of my hands and it creates a barrier that seals moisture in it s a lifesaver don t use too much of this because glycerin is sticky if applied liberally a little dab is enough
