It's hypoallergenic and free of chemicals and fragrance. It's so soft and I always have had dry hands. I love it. I got it at Safeway but I know Target has it too. I was around $15 for a giant 32oz bottle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hand-cream-1#post-2580821 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 05:22:22 +0000 meadow 2580821@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hand-cream-1#post-2580611 Mon, 04 Jul 2016 01:09:45 +0000 LindsayLou 2580611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used a Shea butter cream, alaffia baby balm, as my go to cream when my daughter was a newborn. Hand cream, nipple balm, diaper ointment, lip balm, you name it. Safe for baby to ingest, non toxic, low scent. I still use it all the time now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hand-cream-1#post-2580570 Sun, 03 Jul 2016 20:54:00 +0000 MrsSRS 2580570@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Coconut oil if you're worried about safety, or California Baby lotion. But I like just plain Nivea, the dark blue one. Either the tub or the pump bottle is good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hand-cream-1#post-2580526 Sun, 03 Jul 2016 18:45:52 +0000 mrsbookworm 2580526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How about Lanolin? It's a natural moisturizer and safe for babies. It's greasy, but effective </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hand-cream-1#post-2580382 Sun, 03 Jul 2016 05:28:40 +0000 meadow 2580382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetiePie: thanks for the twin comment!! So true!</p> <p>@SweetiePie: @erinbaderin: thanks for the suggestions I'll look into those two! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hand-cream-1#post-2580270 Sat, 02 Jul 2016 15:34:00 +0000 erinbaderin 2580270@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Lush's Helping Hands - apparently it's all natural ingredients. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hand-cream-1#post-2580254 Sat, 02 Jul 2016 14:27:52 +0000 SweetiePie 2580254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't speak to safety, but you could maybe do some research. This stuff is great. </p> <p>Kiehl's Ultimate Strength Hand Salve - 5 Oz. <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00817BNDW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_bubExbFGM92BP" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00817BNDW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_bubExbFGM92BP</a></p> <p>Otherwise I would maybe look at brands like Honest? I'm not a loyalist but I'm sure they have some kind of cream/lotion. </p> <p>Another option is to use something heavy like Aquaphor at night and wear moisturizing gloves or plastic gloves. So that way it's taken care of while you sleep and not awake and active with the babies. Then again...you have 1 month old twins so I bet you're still tending to them at night. So maybe this is a solution for later. 😊 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hand-cream-1#post-2580249 Sat, 02 Jul 2016 14:05:50 +0000 meadow 2580249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have 1 month old twins and I wash my hands / use diaper cream so many times a day the skin on my right hand is getting really dry &amp; rough </p> <p>Normally I'd put on a little hand cream but I worried bexcuse the babies sometimes put my hands in their mouth or my hands tough my boobs when we BF.</p> <p>Any suggestions on safe around baby hand cream? </p>
