Cold air holds way less moisture. Indoor heating sucks out what’s left. The result: your skin loses water faster than it can replace it, especially on thin, unprotected areas like your hands. Once the barrier’s broken, irritants get in and things get worse.
If you want real results, skip the light lotions and look for these features:
Thicker creams work better than gels or runny lotions. If it feels silky but leaves a slight layer, that’s a good sign. You want something that actually sticks around, not just soaks in and disappears.
Fragrance, parabens, sulfates, and silicones can actually make things worse if your skin’s sensitive. Stick with formulas that leave those out, especially in winter.
If you want soft hands without the greasy feel, Lotus Botanicals provides hand creams packed with vegan emollients and zero harsh additives. Our formulas help restore your skin’s barrier and keep hands comfortable even on the coldest days.
1. How often should I apply hand cream in winter?
Aim for after every hand wash and before bed. Consistency helps your skin stay hydrated all day.
2. Is it normal for my hands to crack and bleed during winter?
Unfortunately, yes. Extreme dryness can lead to cracked skin. Rich hand creams and regular care can prevent this.
3. Will Lotus Botanicals hand cream leave my hands greasy?
Our hand cream sinks in quickly for a soft feel, without the greasy residue. You can use your phone right after applying.
4. Why do my knuckles get so rough compared to the rest of my hand?
Knuckles have thinner skin and more movement, so they lose moisture faster and need more protection.
5. Does wearing gloves help with dry hands?
Yes, wearing cotton gloves overnight with hand cream can boost hydration and speed up healing for cracked skin.
6. Should I avoid scented hand creams in winter?
If your skin is sensitive, skip fragrances. They can irritate dry, cracked skin—look for unscented or naturally scented options.
7. Can I use my regular body lotion on my hands?
You can, but hand creams are usually thicker and designed to handle frequent washing and exposure.
8. What makes Lotus Botanicals hand cream different?
We use plant-based ingredients, zero parabens or sulfates, and focus on vegan, cruelty-free formulas for sensitive winter skin.
9. Are hand creams with lanolin safe for everyone?
Lanolin works well for most people, but some may be allergic. Plant-based alternatives are a safer bet if you’re sensitive.
10. Can I use hand cream on my cuticles?
Absolutely. Massaging hand cream into your cuticles helps prevent hangnails and keeps them soft.
