Hand, Foot & Nail Care

Hands and feet have fewer oil glands than the rest of the body and are exposed to more friction, water and detergent. This section covers hand creams, foot and heel repair creams, and nail and cuticle care products.

What to compare

Hand creams are chosen mainly on texture and absorption speed, since they are reapplied through the day. Heel and foot products are usually thicker and may include exfoliating or softening ingredients. Tube sizes vary from pocket-size to household jars.
