Emollient Moisturizing Cream for Dry, Damaged Skin, 8 oz

I have tried dozens of hand lotions, cuticle creams and oils. All trying to find one product that I thought worked better for my ragged cuticles and peeling splitting nails than regular lotion. I've tried everything at the drug store, I've tried Nail Tek, I have even splurged on OPI and to be honest while they aren't bad products they didn't really do a much better job than the lotion. They certainly didn't do much to improve my nail beds or soothe my cuticles in the long run.Cutemol is quite comparatively expensive to most of these products at first glance but I finally decided I wanted to try it because it seemed to me that Summers Laboratories knows what they're doing and approaches nail and skin care from a very scientific point of view. If anything could actually help, I thought, it had to be this.It does have a major shortcoming. I wondered if I should subtract a star but ultimately I decided I still loved it in spite of it's issue. You see the consistency of this cream is almost reminiscent of marshmallow fluff. It is similarly pretty sticky. Not quite marshmallow sticky but if you rub this all over your hand then you will not want to touch anything for a little bit. After about 20 minutes is absorbs almost completely in and leaves nothing but a very soft vaguely waxy feeling which is only annoying near touch screens and then after that fully absorbs.This is the kind of lotion that is probably best applied before bed and then covered by a glove or fingertip protector so you can go about your business and let it absorb all night. That might sound a bit overkill but you will be amazed at the difference if you do that. My whole hand's texture has changed. My hands even look younger! The skin has a youthful texture and the skin has plumped up giving an almost "hand model" appearance. I can't stop looking at my hands and nails.It has immediate results on your nail beds as well. It will hydrate your cuticles but it will also absorb into your nail bed and lend it increased flexibility after application. You won't experience even better results than that for 4-8 weeks when your nails have grown out more and you can tell the difference in the newly grown out nail. My nails used to split and crack as soon as they left the edge of my finger but after regular application of cutemol they are much more resilient and resistant to splitting.I did purchase this with Summers Laboratories Dermanail product as well so I am sure that product has helped as well and I recommend if you are getting this for nail issues to get that product as well. Both take weeks to work and are comparatively expensive but it is a great deal because you actually get RESULTS. I have tried everything, rejuvacote, nail envy, every sally hansen thing under the sun, and while some of them are nice products and cheaper than Summers Labs products they do not provide the drastically improved results that these products have given me.Cutemol and Dermanail are also much larger volumes than you are used to getting with nail products. This is 8 ounces compared with the normal .5 ounces that most cuticle conditioners come in. So actually it IS cheaper. And Cutemol goes a looong way with just a little bit. Dermanail too is much larger than the nail treatments you're used to getting. It is 1 oz and you only need one drop per nail per treatment.I encourage you to just stop searching and buy this stuff. It is on another level.

With regard to texture, this is exactly what I envisioned when I went on a quest to find the thickest cream I could get without resorting to slathering room-temperature lard on my dry T2 skin. Most lotions are too light, too watery, too thin, too runny and useless. Most creams are slightly better in that it's not as light or as watery or as thin or as runny as lotion, but I've found that most creams are still just ok at best.I've tried a LOT of creams for my dry skin. A LOT. Like a whole LOT. Then I finally got around to ordering this brand and this...THIS...is the THICK and occlusive vibe that I had always imagined existed.Helpful hints:1. Apply right after a bath, shower or after just washing your hands or feet. A bit of moisture already on the skin makes this work that much better from the get go.2. A little goes a long way. Start out with a dab, then add more as needed. Too much and it will leave a distinct white cast and you'll either have to wipe it on another area you weren't planning on covering or you'll have to wipe off the excess altogether.3. It's not going to absorb in quickly like a lotion or lighter-formula cream so don't expect it to. It will remain a bit tacky for a spell.4. If using on feet or hands - put socks or cotton gloves over it before going to bed for added relief.5. There is "fragrance" added, which I'm totally opposed to for 99.99 percent of products, but it's last on the list so there's less of it in theory. The scent is weird. It's not overpowering to any else, but I smell it and it's weird. It has a medicinal meets car repair garage scent to it.Having said that, the benefits of this super rich, super thick cream makes me overlook the funky scent, and as someone who fancies themselves "sensitive to fragrance", that says a lot.I will say that I've not yet tried it on my face, but it works great for neck (helps hide some of that turkey neck waddle from using tretinoin), elbows, hands, knees, feet, etc.

Deeply moisturizes my sensitive skin. My elderly mom and I both use it after a dermatologist’s recommendation. It’s super thick so I use it at night under a pair of cotton gloves or socks.

Absolute essential for restoring hands, I put on before gardening or rough working the yard. Also at night apply,

I had an injury that pulled all my nails back and injured the nail beds. My dermatologist recommended this to help heal around my cuticles. Well, after using for a couple of days, the mess my nails became after the injury definitely looks better. I got the 8 oz. because I figured it was more bang for my buck. Honestly, I wish I would have gotten the 2 oz. tube. This stuff is extremely thick. Which is a good thing, I'm sure. But this 8 oz. tub may take me 25 years to use. LOL

So happy Summers Lab is selling through Amazon. Could only buy this through my dermatologist before. Love Cutemol, I have Sjogrens Disease, severe dry hands, but cutemol always saves me. I use it on my feet also before bed and my feet are smooth. Thank you Summers Labs for making this wonderful, much needed product!!!!

So, been dealing with hand eczema for about two years. It started from using a commercial antibacterial soap I got from a warehouse club. The soap had an ingredient (can't remember the ingredient name) that apparently my skin did not like! Anyhow tired every lotion and cream I could find. I even got a prescription for a steroid ointment I had used in the past. Stopped using the soap after I figured it out and my hands got better, but still not well. Went to using Cetaphil gentle cleansing soap and it helps but still not well until I found this. Been using it less than a month with the Cetaphil soap and I would say I am 95% well. There is still some deep tissue scarring but I think that will heal over time. Doesn't take much to seal the skin and just keep it on whenever to can and after washing your hands.

Cutemol was recommended by my dermatologist after I complained that nothing else was curing my dry, cracked skin around my nails. In the winter, my skin would get dry enough around my nails that the discomfort of the cracked skin would wake me up in the middle of the night. After the very first use of Cutemol, I have had remarkable results on both hands and feet--the cracks were healed almost immediately and this is the first winter during which I have not experienced ANY dry skin discomfort on my hands or feet. My husband, who also has very dry skin, has experienced the same improvement. We even apply it on our legs before bedtime and have had the same incredible results. My regiment is to apply Cutemol 2-3 times a day, in the morning, mid day and in the evening. (This is compared to having to apply other hand creams/lotions constantly.) The results are vastly better than ANY other lotion I have tried in the past. My only complaint is that I wish I had known about Cutemol earlier in my life. It's frustrating that such an amazing product is not better known, and requires a visit to the dermatologist or word of mouth to find out about it. I have told SO many friends about this and everyone has had the same remarkable improvement. On a final note, I see that other reviewers commented on how Cutemol is applied. It does have a different constantly and does not apply evenly as other lotions. If you follow the directions, and apply with a little water and pat down with a towel, it will work perfectly! Once you get into the routine, it takes very little time to apply. SO worth the results.

Ya no funciona se nota que cambiaron la formula

Very expensive cream but if you have extremely dry skin it works. I have had skin issues since severe health problems so it has been great for me. I do not use it everyday just when my skin needs it as it is only the 2nd. Ream I have found works for me.
