** The Product ** I like to have a hand and nail cream in my handbag for when I am work mostly. I find I get very dry skin throughout the day, generally due to the air conditioning, but also due to the not very moisturising soap in the toilets. Generally my hands are quite dry and my nails aren't the best, so I do tend to try and moisturise as often as I can remember, especially after washing my hands. Normally I get a specific brand of hand and nail cream, but I decided to give Asda's own brand a chance, mainly because it was very cheap (under 50p!) and because it looked like it would do the same job. Oh how wrong I was! The ...  Read the complete review

When I'd recently ran out of my favourite hand cream I was desperate for some more until I could get into town to buy a good quality one. I'd bought this hand cream in Asda a while ago as it was only about 50p, and none of the others such as Nivea were on special.

I suffer badly from dry skin on my hands and therefore need a decent hand cream with me at all times to apply as and when needed, trying to type at work or relax at home with itchy dry fingers is no fun at all. I was looking for something that would give me the relief I needed but also wouldnt cost the earth, I have to watch the pennies these days due to the credit crunch, and thought Asda would be a good bet as I've several of their skin products and been very pleased with them. They sell a handcream called Essential Care Hand and Nail Lotion, the only Asda branded one I could see at the time I visited my local store, it was cheap thats for sure ...  Read the complete review
