A nourishing, repairing cream for dry hands and brittle nails
Embryolisse Cicalisse Hands and Nails is a nourishing, repairing cream for dry, rough or damaged hands and fragile nails. Part of the brand's Cicalisse repairing range, it is enriched with shea butter to nourish the skin and help it recover its comfort and suppleness. Massaged into the hands and around the nails, it softens rough patches and cuticles and leaves hands feeling protected, without a heavy feel.
The texture
A soft cream that is rich enough to comfort dry hands but absorbs well, so you can get back to what you were doing quickly.
Who it suits
- Dry, rough or chapped hands
- Brittle nails and dry cuticles
- Hands exposed to cold, water or frequent washing
- Handbag-size daily care
Worth knowing before you buy: For very cracked hands, apply a thicker layer at night so the cream can work for longer.
How long one tube lasts
Used two or three times a day, the 30ml tube lasts around three to four weeks.
