DermavitaminsAdvanced Hand Glove Mask (Moisturising Treatment) - Repair Extremely Dry Cracked Skin

These are definitely single use. They are very fiddly to secure unless there is another person to help you. For the price they are good value but I don’t think I’d buy again.

However, this didn’t last long, pretty much as soon as I washed my hand they went back to being dry and scaly.This hand mask were easy enough to put on, however, you will need scissors to cut them apart. I sat and watched a film with them on but found that they tape they provide lost it stick after about 5 seconds so I just put on a normal pair of woolly gloves over the top to hold them in place. After an hour I took them off and rubbed in the excess cream and my hands looked and felt lovely. (see photo)After I went to bed and then next morning I woke up with my usual dry hands, which is a real shame. For the 9.99 price tag I would have expected A LOT more but the fact these are one-time items I would certainly not buy them again.

The rough skin on my fingers seemed like it has been eaten away with this mask, but strangely, my hands felt dry after using it. My fingers had the prune-like appearance that you get when you have soaked too long in the bath, I definitely wouldn't advise wearing them for longer than the stated 30 minutes. It is strange how my hands can feel soft but yet dry at the same time, hopefully after my regular nighttime hand cream they will feel nice in the morning. If you need to get rid of rough skin on your hands then I can recommend this treatment but if you just need a moisturiser then maybe this isn't for you. Also, be very careful about rubbing your eyes when wearing the gloves, even the outside of the gloves can sting your eyes. The treatment smells really nice but it is a strong smell, which also irritated my eyes a bit; the smell goes once you wash your hands after removing the treatment gloves. As the prune effect wears off the more moist my hands became.

My daughter developed some weird skin condition for no particular reason, but first her knuckles, and then her whole hands turned red, super dry chapped and sore and no lotion or hand cream would soothe it, so when this mask came along we were quite excited to try it out.The gloves are easy to put on and feel squishy and cool only at the start, so no unpleasant. You do need to use something other than the stickers provided, as they don’t hold anything, constantly popping open.Anyway, let’s put it this way – we did not wash the hands, but my daughter massaged the treatment lotion in instead, as it did provide some relief, although it was not visually noticeable and her hands looked just as sore as before the treatment, but felt soft and smooth.The following morning however, the chapped feeling returned...so not really any lasting effect as such. Having said this, it is recommended that you should use it twice a week, but then it would make it an incredibly expensive solution to chapped cracked skin, to be honest, so…. 3 stars from us.

I am a long distance runner and also a hand washing obsessive so my hands can get very dry and cracked.This product was easy to use (it's basically a pair of gloves filled with a deep moisturising lotion), you snip open the gloves, stap them on and then twiddle your thumbs for 30 minutes whilst waiting for them to work.Whilst my hands were noticeably softer and less red after the treatment (see pictures) I'm not sure I would use this product regularly:- firstly it's a £9.99 single use product which they recommend you use once of twice a week, that will soon add up!- secondly 30 minutes is a long time to be usable to use your hands! I found the application process very boring as a result. Probably not helped by the fact I did the feet treatment at the same time. It might help for those who need to enforce 30 minutes relaxation or meditation onto themselves!

Okay, this isn’t the most pleasant thing to use to moisturise your hands, but it is effective if you can bear the weirdness of it. Basically, it is a sealed, hand-shaped pair of plastic bags that are filled with serum that you put onto your hands. There is mention of straps, but the pack I received just had a tag on each wrist and a sticker to secure them.The bags are cold and squelchy, but once the serum has warmed up, they are just odd but not particularly unpleasant. Wait for 30 minutes and then remove the bags and wash your hands. Mine were left feeling lovely and soft, although the effect doesn’t last very long to be honest, but it did provide some relief from soreness caused by the cold weather.Suggested use is once or twice per week. Although my hands did feel good afterwards, I am not sure I would want to use this that frequently, but from time to time it does provide a moisture boost that is welcome.

I have very dry hands and at the moment they are also rough and scaly. I was therefore keen to try these gloves. Putting them on was a bit of a challenge as they are thin and slimy. I then had to sit around with them on which was annoying as I couldn't do much with slimy large gloves on my hands! When I took them off I did notice that the scaly parts of my hands did feel softer. Unfortunately, the rest of my skin felt dry and my hands generally did not look very nice. I washed the gunk off and used some rich hand cream and they thankfully went back to normal. The next day they looked exactly the same as before the treatment. I therefore would not bother with these gloves again. If your hands are dry I would recommend gently using body scrub on them before bed. After rinsing it off smother your hands in a rich hand cream and then go to bed wearing cotton gloves.
