Do you suffer from dry hands and cracked skin? Our hands put up with a lot and are exposed to water, wind and weather every day, which dries out the skin. 

 

The hand pack ensures optimal daily care for red, cracked, itchy and dry hands.

 

How to use the products in the pack

Use the hand soap every time you need to wash your hands, for example after going to the toilet. 

 

Squeeze an appropriate amount of hand soap into your hand and apply to wet hands. Make sure you spread the soap over your whole hand - be particularly between your fingers and in the palm of your hand to remove all bacteria and dirt. Finally, rinse off the product and dry your hands. 

 

Finish with a layer of nourishing hand cream to prevent drying and chapped hands. You can use the hand cream as many times a day as you need and want. If your hands are very red or your skin is cracked, we recommend that you apply the cream after each wash and during the day when the need arises.

 

Why you should choose the hand pack for dry hands 

You wash your hands many times during the day: after going to the toilet, before cooking and eating, after sneezing, coughing, etc.

 

Every time you expose your hands to water and soap, you risk drying them out, so you shouldn't compromise on the quality of your hand soap. 

 

Choose a hand soap that is gentle on your skin but tough on dirt and bacteria. The Australian Bodycare Tea Tree Oil Liquid Hand Soap thoroughly washes away bacteria from the skin's surface, but doesn't dry out or irritate dry, chapped hands. 

 

Although the hand soap in the pack has a skin-friendly pH and is rated suitable for all skin types in dermatological tests, frequent hand washing can still lead to dry and red, cracked hands. Therefore, you should also care for and protect your hands several times a day with a moisturizing hand cream. 

 

The pack therefore also contains hand cream with emollient and anti-itch ingredients. The natural and Australian Tea Tree Oil is known to counteract bacteria, and this is a good thing if your skin is so dry that it cracks. That way, you minimize the risk of bacteria getting into the damaged and red skin on your hands. At the same time, the hand cream provides plenty of moisture and care, helping to restore the skin's natural protective barrier. 

 

 

Good advice for dry hands and damaged skin

If your hands are rough and dry, there are several things you can do to care for them. Here are our top 3 tips:

 

1) Apply hand cream several times a day

Massage several times a day with the hand cream in the pack. You should apply regularly and daily for a minimum of 2 weeks to achieve an effect. Apply as many times a day as needed. 

 

How often you should apply will vary from person to person. We recommend that you apply after every hand wash and that you apply a generous layer in the evening before going to bed. You can also apply the cream when you've been out in a cold, wet or windy weather.

2) Keep your hands protected

Dry hands can be aggravated by external factors - wind and weather in particular can cause red hands with cracked skin. So, protect your hands with gloves when you're out in cold windy weather. Put some cream on your hands when you get back inside to prevent dry hands. 

 

3) Provide a deep hydration with a hand cream

You can use a strong hand cream - like the one in this pack - to mask your hands. Coat your hands in a thick, covering layer of hand cream and put on a pair of cotton gloves. This gives the cream time to soak into your skin, and you can sleep with the gloves on to take full advantage of the moisturising properties.

 

Why does red, dry and itchy skin occur on the hands?

There can be several reasons why the skin on your hands is dry, itchy or cracked. Dry skin is often caused by a lack of water in the top layer of the skin. If your hands are struggling to retain moisture, your skin is probably also lacking in fat/oil. 

 

Dry skin can be caused by a lack of moisture as well as the effects of wind and weather and frequent hand washing. Fortunately, it can be treated and, over time, prevented by using the right products. 

 

Eczema or skin rashes can also cause dryness and itchy hands. In the worst case, the skin on the hands becomes red and irritated. You may experience stinging and cracking of the skin, which can be both itchy and a cosmetic nuisance. 

 

It is therefore important to choose a gentle hand soap for daily hand washing and a moisturising cream that targets dry and chapped hands. We've put together 2 products in the hand pack here, so you can reduce your discomfort and prevent dry hands and cracked skin.

The story of healing tea trees dates back thousands of years and it originates from the Aboriginal people of Australia. Their legends describe lakes surrounded by tea trees. Falling leaves and twigs from the tea trees leached their essential oils into the water and turned the lakes into antiseptic baths. The lolacl Aborigines used these natural, healing spas to treat a number of conditions, such as skin infection, burns, cuts and insect bites.

The healing benefits of tea trees were not officially registred until 1923. However, the local Aboriginal tribe, Bundjalung, had long understood the protective and healing powers of tea trees and used their crushed leaves to treat various wounds and skin infections. They named the land with tea trees “Healing Ground”.

The products from Australian Bodycare contain natural, antiseptic Tea Tree Oil (Melaleuca Alternifolia). Tea Tree Oil has been known and used by Australian Aborigines for centuries because of its powerful antiseptic effects. Tea Tree Oil has been added to all Australian Bodycare Tea Tree Oil products in different concentrations, depending on which skin problem the products is developed to combat and where on the body it is to be used. Our product series is tailored for the entire family: It prevents and treats the most common skin problems—all while staying gentle on the skin.
