Holy Grail Winter Hand Care: Kiehl's Ultimate Strength Hand Salve

Sample (Affiliate Links)

The extent to which my hands have been chapped and dry this winter cannot be overstated. In fact, for some reason all of my skin has been unusually impacted by the very dry and cold weather– leaving my skin dry and chapped. One of my go-to picks this season is Kiehl's Ultimate Strength Hand Salve, and not only does it work wonders on my dry hands, but it is likewise incredible for dry feet.

This salve is incredibly rich and emollient, and it has the most delectable whipped texture. It is lightweight and it melts into the skin without leaving behind a greasy residue. It is very moisturizing and it leaves skin soft, smooth and supple. This cream has a light Eucalyptus aroma that is neither overpowering, nor long-lasting, and it does have a slight cooling and uplifting effect.
According to Kiehl's,

Care for dry hands with our heavy-duty moisturizing hand salve. This thick, rich formula provides all-day care for active and dry hands. Formulated with Avocado Oil, Eucalyptus Oil and Sesame Seed Oil, this hand moisturizer for dry skin leaves hands feeling soft, conditioned and cared for.

Features:
- Thick, rich formula soothes, conditions and moisturizes dry hands
- Draws and absorbs water from the air forming a “glove-like” protective barrier against moisture loss

  1. This stuff is amazing - discovered it years ago and it really works. It's so nice and thick without being greasy, which is hard to find in hand creams. I also like that it doesn't have much fragrance - so many hand creams I've tried have been overpowering in terms of scent. I like scented products but they were overkill!

    1. It really is amazing! I am so glad that you have it and love it as well. I completely agree with your assessment. It is so rich and thick without being greasy and it isn't too fragrant. Many hand creams really are overpowering in terms of scent, but this one strikes the perfect balance.

  2. I have tried a Kiehl's hand cream in the past but this looks like super strength. I was in Sephora today, and they just started carrying Kiehl's, so next time I will check this out. I think I would like it for my feet

  3. I know it's a great hand balm but the scent just doesn't agree with me. I really wish it did though.
