It does RELIEVE but nothing else

The tube is large and the cream is rich, but the price I paid ($9.97 @ Wal-Mart) is too much for this. As my title says, the tube does say "Relieves extremely dry, rough & cracked skin". Which it does. But within an hour (or less if working with my hands) I find I need to reapply. My cuticles and fingertips do not feel or look any different when I use this cream. They are still rough and cracked but my palms and back of hands are soft and smooth. Overall, this is a good moisturizer to relieve any dryness. However, since it is pricey, I suggest purchasing something else that will improve and heal instead of just giving temporary relief.

Can't live in Canada without it

My hands get so cracked all year, with dishes, laundry, the cold air outside... This is the only things that keeps my hands soft and repairs the damage that the cold winter air inflicts on my skin.
I recommend it to everyone I know!

Great healing hand cream

Gold Bond makes the best medicated creams for different skin conditions and this one is another great cream. Very moisturing, it seems to speed up my healing of cuts and dry skin. Great quality product

Did not work for me :(

The dry Canadian winters leave my hands cracked and dry. I tried this product with high hopes of healing my hands and nothing happened.My coworker recommended it because she uses it and said it worked for her. I tried it for a few weeks but I found my hands were still dry.

Would definately buy

I first tried this as girl at work had some and said it was the only thing that works for her dry hands. I work as a scrub nurse and the skin on my hands gets quite dry. I bought my own after trying hers as it was so soothing. It really does add moisture and is non greasy. The moisture lasts a long time. Kind of expensive but worth every penny.

This stuff SAVED my hands last winter. I was pregnant over holidays, so I already had dry hands from the weather and my body changes. Additional dryness from constantly washing my hands after pregnancy pees didn't help. I tried Bath & Body Works lotions that's I typically used, and they didn't really help. I got a free sample of this and it helped tremendously! It's a hand cream, so it's thicker, which is what I needed, but it wasn't greasy or oily! My hands became soft and this really did HEAL all the cracks in my knuckles. I ended up using my sample to their fullest and buying more.

I have very dry skin. My hands get so sore, dry and cracked. I have trouble finding a cream that works. This one is very helpful, it is not as greasy as some. The only problem, sometimes it stings a little, there is a little fragrance in it that may cause that.

Gold Bond Ultimate Healing Hand Cream is worth every penny, which is not much, because if I remember right, I got an 8 oz tube for about $4.99! It is very effective and helps hands heal when they are cracking. It works great in the winter and for people who work in the health care industry or restaurant business where you are washing your hands too much.

This hand cream has made my hands feel and look so much better! I'm a cashier so I tend to use hand sanitizer quite often. It has made my hands really dry. I decided to give this cream a try and I am so glad I did. It is a heavier cream, but it will soak right in. It leaves your skin feeling smooth and hydrated. Your hands will still feel nice and moisturized even after you wash them. Which is what they claim and it's true! After continued use you will see such a difference in your skin. I even got the other cashiers into this cream! Highly recommend!!!

I use Gold Bond Ultimate since last fall....Love this product, my hands are smouth and it lasts a long way. Great before going skiing. It keeps my hands hydrated all day long....not greasy is also a great thing.
