hand creams have come a long way from the slick, greasy formulations of the past. these days, there are options to fit all skin-smoothing needs — from luxe buys to soothing serums to healing salves. many options now also include buzzy ingredients found in facial skincare to target signs of aging on your hands.
with the aim of keeping hands soft and hydrated (and, in many cases, smelling lovely), we’ve rounded up five new and fan-favourite formulas to try.
paume renewing hand serum
if a lightweight salve is your solution of choice for dry hands, consider this option from the canadian brand paume. featuring skin-loving ingredients like vitamin c, niacinamide and hyaluronic acid, the serum works to hydrate and address signs of aging such as texture, fine lines and elasticity.
chanel la creme main texture riche 
a new take on the fan favourite, this hand cream offers intense moisture for hands, nails and cuticles. featuring a camellia complex to nourish skin, the rich cream is formulated to protect hands from the drying effects of cold weather. plus, it’s perfectly sized for a petite purse.
