What to look for

Questions people ask

Is a hand balm different from hand cream?
A balm is usually thicker and contains more wax or oil, so it stays on the skin longer than a lightweight cream.
When is the best time to apply it?
Many people apply it at bedtime, sometimes under cotton gloves, so it can stay on for several hours.
