If you have been following government guidelines over the last few months, your hands have probably seen more hand wash, sanitiser and heard more happy birthdays than they ever have before. Unfortunately, this constant washing, although necessary, can result in dry and cracked hands which can become uncomfortable. We have picked out our 7 best hand creams on LOOKFANTASTIC that will work to replenish moisture on your hands to take them back to their pre-pandemic state of soft and smooth. Keep one of these hero moisturisers both near your sink for applying after hand wash and in your bag to put on after sanitising on the go to make sure you can hydrate after hand washing.
