Quick answer

The Timeless Renewal Hand Cream is an organic, age-defying hand cream built around two actives: moisture-retaining Ceramides and rejuvenating Bio-Retinol. It is aimed at dryness, wrinkles and age spots, and it repairs the skin's barrier layer, so it suits mature or frequently washed hands. Apply a small amount to clean, dry hands and massage in, focusing on the backs of the hands and knuckles.

What the ingredients actually do

The formula pairs Ceramides with Bio-Retinol. Ceramides are moisture-retaining, which is why the cream is described as repairing the skin's barrier layer and keeping hands comfortable even after washing. Bio-Retinol is included to rejuvenate the look of the skin, so the cream targets wrinkles and age spots rather than only surface dryness. It is an organic hand cream with an uplifting fragrance blend, so it is designed to be pleasant to use as well as functional.

How to use it for the best results

Apply after washing your hands, when skin is still slightly damp, and massage a small amount into the backs of the hands, knuckles and cuticles. The backs of the hands show age-related changes first, so give them the most attention. Reapply during the day whenever hands feel tight, and use a slightly thicker layer before bed. If you are also using an anti-aging face routine, keep the hand cream separate and apply it after any lighter products have absorbed.

Who it suits and who should skip it

This suits mature skin, hands that are washed often, and anyone dealing with dryness plus visible wrinkles or age spots. Because it is rich and contains Bio-Retinol, very reactive or newly sensitised skin may prefer to start with one application a day. If your main concern is only occasional dryness with no aging concerns, a simpler hand cream may be enough.

Hand cream questions, answered

Can it fade age spots?

The cream is formulated to tackle signs of ageing such as wrinkles and age spots, and Bio-Retinol is included for visible rejuvenation. Results depend on consistent daily use and sun protection on the hands. Use it daily and pair with SPF on the backs of the hands.

Is it greasy under gloves?

It is a rich, nourishing cream, so apply a small amount and let it absorb before putting on gloves. If you apply too much, blot the excess rather than rubbing it away. Start with a pea-sized amount per hand.

How often should I reapply?

Reapply after every hand wash and whenever hands feel dry. For extra benefit, use a thicker layer at night so the ceramides and Bio-Retinol stay in contact with the skin longer. Keep one by the sink and one by the bed.

Can I use it on my body?

It is designed as a hand cream. The formula is rich enough that some people also use it on elbows or heels, but there is no need to replace a dedicated body product. Reserve it for hands unless you have a specific dry patch.
