The full-named O’Keeffe’s Working Hands Cream 3.4 OZ is designed for people who rely on their hands for work.

Key benefits
- Strengthens the skin’s protective barrier to help prevent moisture loss after repeated hand washing or exposure to everyday work tasks.

- Fast- absorbing formula that provides relief without leaving heavy residue on the skin.
- Supports everyday comfort for people who spend long hours using their hands, plus after bathing or bedtime for ongoing moisturization.
- Is suitable for regular use as part of a daily hand care routine, helping maintain skin integrity over time.
Ingredients and why they matter
- Water/Eau and Glycerin — provide initial hydration and help attract moisture to the skin surface.
- Stearic Acid and Paraffin — create a protective barrier that reduces moisture loss and softens rough areas.
- Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate and Mineral Oil/Huile minérale — help texture, smooth the skin, and retain moisture for longer periods.
- Dimethicone — offers a protective occlusive layer that helps shield against irritants and friction.
- Allantoin — soothes and supports skin comfort during use.
- Preservatives (Diazolidinyl Urea, Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate) — maintain product safety and freshness.
- Polyquaternium-10 and Ceteth-10/ Laureth-4 — aid in spreadability and feel during application.
Usage tips and suitability
- Start with a small amount; more is not necessarily better and over-application can lead to stickiness.
- Apply to problem areas on hands and fingers after exfoliating, as needed throughout the day.
- Apply after hand washing, after bathing and at bedtime as these are the most effective times for moisturizing extremely dry skin.
- WH and HF provide an excellent protective barrier; wearing socks or gloves after applying is not necessary and may not improve performance.
