Tips For Choosing The Right Hand Aromatherapy Cream For Your Skin

An aromatherapy hand cream is not just something to dab on your skin and you are done. There is a lot more that should be considered when it comes to choosing an aromatherapy product. Many companies are popping up all over the place claiming they have the best natural remedies around, when in fact they may be some distance from that. You will want to do the proper research before you go ahead and put down your credit card or hand out.

First of all, what exactly should you be looking for? Look for the following: vitamin E, Shea Butter, essential oils and plant extracts. These are the main ingredients that should be present. Other added benefits include vitamins A, B, C and E. They also contain certain oils and emollients that will moisturize and help to heal your hand. This is important when using lotions to cover broken skin or dryness caused by the weather.

When looking at creams, make sure they are meant for your hands. If they are for your body only, you are more than likely going to end up with an allergic reaction. Many lotion manufacturers claim that their cream will be great for your body but it simply won’t work on your hands. This is why I always recommend buying a particular brand for your hands, and then another for your body. Some people suffer from a reaction to one type of lotion but not the other.

In addition to looking for the right scent, you should look for a consistency. It should be thick and rich. A good cream for the hands will stay on longer and have a richer formula. A thick consistency will help protect your hands from irritation as well. An oil free hand cream will be less effective and more easily washed off. Just be careful and read the label.

Don’t just buy your aromatherapy hand cream from the first product you see. Visit several different stores and don’t be afraid to ask questions. While the customer service may be wonderful in one store, it may be dreadful in another. Get the scoop from the person who sells it so you don’t waste money or time.

Now that you know how to choose a great aromatherapy hand cream, start using it. Have moisturizer with you so you can use it anytime you need to. Enjoy your hands and your new found scent!
