I am currently having a bit of a challenge with chapped hands – ouch! It never seems to fail that at this time of year my hands get really dry and tight and basic lotions won’t work. Well I have found my solution – Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Intensive Moisturizing Hand Treatment.
After I wash my hands, first thing in the am and last thing at night I have been apply this fast-absorbing gel cream and honestly my hands are back to be soft, supple and healthy. I don’t know what is in the hand cream but it does not leave any greasiness and it has a unusual but pleasant scent – like a herb of some sort.
When I mentioned to my Mother that I was using this cream, she excited told me that my Grandmother was always a huge fan of Elizabeth Arden and used one of her hand creams and loved it.
I guess I am following the family tradition!
