I got to review Cicaplast mains , it contains Niacimide and glycerine and retails at around $15 dollars I like it ,however after applying it my hands feel very hot ,I find it a bit heavy as well .
Is a bit sticky and greasy however this hand cream works! the next day my hands feel softer and less dry , I don't like much the sensation of feeling my hands hot but I can live with that!
if you have very dry hands you should totally give this hand cream a go it would help .
Tips: Apply as often as you need
I was pleased to try the La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Mains Hand Cream. It was a good size for my handbag and being only 50ml meant I could take it on a plane as I travel a lot. The product was non greasy and absorbed quickly into my skin but it did have a slight after smell which I was not fan of. I did notice a difference in hand texture as I suffer from chronic dry and split hands (which got worse during the hand sanitiser period). If I applied this in the evenings I could tell immediately in the morning that my hands felt more hydrated and smoother. I also noticed a big difference in my cuticle health. I would definitely use this product again.
Tips: I preferred to use this at night. That's when I noticed the health of my hands improve.
I'll admit, I was concerned when I squeezed this product onto my hand as it seemed quite thick and had a Vaseline type texture. Fear not, once I rubbed my hands together it seemed to 'melt' and was easy to smooth over my hands. It also absorbed easily despite an initial glossy appearance on my hands which looked like it may not absorb but this was very temporary. I like that it had no fragrance because you need to let one scent shine and that's usually perfume but with so many fragranced products these days from body moisturiser to deodorant to face cremes it becomes on big floral bouquet so I prefer non-scented. After 4-5 uses my hands definitely felt softer and the more intense moisturise is perfect for winter months when skin is dryer.
Tips: A little goes a long way.
Its a great hand cream. I have dry hand and this makes it soft in just one application it also make my nails strong and great looking. The only thing i didnt like its really thick it takes a while to absorb into my hand and makes it a bit sweaty
Tips: Apply at night time its think and make your hand sweaty
Being winter and with all the hand washing and sanitizing going on my hands were in a state, they were sore, cracked to the point of almost bleeding and no moisturizer seemed to be helping at all.... until now! I have been using this a week now and my hands have healed. There's no more cracks and the dry patches are disappearing. I am so so grateful to have been given this to trial and will definitely be purchasing once its gone.
It is very thick and be warned a little goes a long way (on my first application I ended up covering all the way to my elbows ). There's no strong fragrance and it didn't hurt to apply when my skin was cracked unlike some others. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to replenish moisture in their hands.
Tips: I keep it by the sink to use after handwashing and drying so I dont forget
