Healthcare worker, little tubes in pockets, big tubes on hands under cotton gloves at night.
Worst to best, left to right.

I didn’t buy any of these this past year; it was all using up past purchases and gifts hence the variety.
Sadly, this year the best performers were the most expensive, not surprised.

-Erbario Toscana- random TJMaxx clearance cream, nice scent, ok moisture for what it is. Summer cream.
-Crabtree&Evelyn- random TJMaxx clearance cream-this company always gets me w the nice branding and scents and uninspiring product
-Aveeno Restorative Skin Therapy Oat Repairing Cream- hand me down- good that I used gloves w this as the texture was quite spreadable and slimy
-Aveda Hand Relief- gift- not a fan of the “plant essences” marketing, mostly got vague citrus, but I liked the lactic acid and went well w the gloves
-Estée Lauder Re-Nutriv- Intenive smoothing hand cream- gift- very nice , thick, absorbs well, tad greasy so good w gloves. Turns out full price is $78 which is ouch
–Clarins MoistureRich Body Lotion- gift- too rich for my body but great for hands. Also too expensive for me at $48 full price

-L’Occitane Lavender hand cream- holy essential oils I felt bad having this at work bc it’s so scented. Good aroma therapy? Not too moisturizing.
-Trader Joe’s Eucalyptus Lemon Ultra MoisturizingHand Cream- also too strongly scented. As all TJ creams, good moisture.
-Trader Joe’s Marula Hand Cream- 5star champ, love this guy from the winter gift trio, repeat repurchase
-L’Occitane 20%shea dry skin hand cream – gift- tiny tube , great performance, I think this is what the TJ formula dupes, a full tube is $30 which I may consider as reasonable in the future bc a little goes a long way
