Shielding Lotion 8oz for Dry, Cracked Skin

I have very dry skin and poor circulation so throughout Autumn-spring my hands are constantly cracked and bleeding. I go through moisturisers very quickly and have tried many brands. Gloves ina bottle was recommended to me by a friend and delivered very quickly. The cream no real scent and a little goes quite a long way- not as much as Neutrogena but better than other moisturisers. The difference with GIAB is that it seems to deeply penetrate the skin and leave some sort of protective layer, but without being greasy/slimy like other moisturisers. I try to moisturise after every handwash and I found that this lasts to some degree through several washes, making it good for when you're out for an evening. It's expensive so I only use it when I go out, and I am happy with it for that purpose. At home and work where I can re-apply regularly I use a regular moisturiser. It didn't clear up my cracks but may have helped to slow the development of new ones. I haven't tried using it working outside instead of gloves because it's still too cold to do that. I think those people who complained that it wasn't actually like wearing gloves had unrealistic expectations. It's a bold name for the product but don't take it literally, this product does offer a degree of hand protection that other hand creams do not.

This stuff works really well but you have to be patient as results only start showing after a few weeks use. My hands feel very soft for a 68 year old. I was recommended this by a skin specialist.

I've only been using this a few days but I'm already impressed. It goes on light and smoothly and it doesn't feel like my skin is being clogged like so may other hand creams. A little really does go a long way which makes it a really good price too. I've only used it on my hands up to yet because I have very sensitive skin on my hands from deally with lab based chemicals and I suffer from very bad chillblains/Reynaud's syndrome yet I have had no irritation whatsoever when I've used the cream. It has instead left my hands feeling soft and cared for. I have high hopes that come the winter, when my skin issues are far worse, that I may just have found somethibg which will stop me cringing every time a particularly painful area gets knocked.

Great name for a great product. I cannot get Dermaguard anywhere now which is similar but this is just as good. Protects your hands in water and moisturises too. I use it every day and I recommend it. A bit dear but definitely worth it. Last for ages.

Feels really moisturising, not at all sticky when worked in. I see why they call it glove in a bottle it does appear to coat your hands, trapping in moisture and protecting. Not at all irritating, for me at least, I do have very sensitive skin.

This is a barrier cream. It does the job and quite well. I know because I use barrier cream every day for work. However, I have only given it 3 stars because it does not out-perform other barrier creams that are significantly cheaper.

A miracle product! & IT WORKS!! The skin on my hands were always awful cracked, dry & sore. I work with my horses & I do other manual jobs outside. No other creams have worked for me, trust me I’ve done & tried them all!! I’ve put this on every morning before I’ve left the house & done another application at lunchtime. It’s worked wonders for me & I'm now proud of my hands, they now look normal, clean & they feel so soft. Instead of getting people commenting that they look awful they now comment that they look so healthy.

This is the only product that helped my dry cracked hands! My skin has been so dry from daily life - washing the dishes, using cleaning products, using nappy cream for my toddler etc. This provided almost instant relief and left a non-sticky residue on my hands leaving them protected. I used this daily for a month but now I don’t need to apply it at all. I don’t know how it works but it’s incredible and I know that if my hands go back to being sore and cracked I can use it again for quick and effective relief.

Works as it says it would

I’ve been using Gloves in a Bottle for several years - to replace moisturizer AND gloves. The psoriasis on my hands is non-existent as long as I use Gloves in a Bottle. Its better than any of the meds my derm gave me. I’m a loyal customer and even give Gloves in a Bottle to friends, who are equally amazed by it! Every derm and every drug store should have Gloves in a Bottle on the shelf! I just love the stuff!

ما كنت متاكده انه ما حيخرج مع المويه فكل شويه احط منه بعد ما اغسل يدي بس قلت يمكن ينفع لدرجة ما لغاية اليوم اتاكدت انه مو كانه قفاز حماية لما دخلت المطبخ وجات نقطة ليمون على يدي وكنت قبل شويه حاطه منه بس ما سوا شي على طول الليمون لسع يدي. لما كنت احط الفازلين كان احسن كحماية. حاكنل استعمله كمرطب لليد عادي لغاية ما يخلص.
