HOW IS NS WORKING HANDS INTENSIVE DIFFERENT FROM OTHER HAND TREATMENT CREAMS?
NS Working Hands Intensive is formulated synergistically with natural active ingredients and without petroleum-based ingredients. The skin recognizes the Natural Moisturising Factors (NMF) and readily absorbs the cream, providing superior moisturisation. Petroleum based products simply coat the skin forming an occlusive barrier. NS Working Hands Intensive also contains ingredients to exfoliate dry, dead or thickened skin for smooth hands. It also helps repair damaged skin, as well as protect it, even whilst working or washing your hands. NS is Natural Dermatology.
WHAT DOES SYNERGISTICALLY FORMULATED MEAN?
It is the scientific process whereby carefully selected ingredients (in the case of NS - natural ingredients) work together to enhance each other’s performance so that the outcome is far greater than each ingredient could deliver on its own.

Yes, NS Working Hands Intensive has been tested on human skin and when applied to the skin the finished product is well tolerated and generally does not cause irritation.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NS PROTECTIVE HAND CREAM & NS WORKING HANDS INTENSIVE CREAM?
NS Protective Hand Cream is a daily hand cream which protects and restores normal, dry or sensitive hands. NS Working Hands Intensive is an Intensive treatment that repairs cracked, calloused or damaged hands and split fingers.
NS Protective Hand Cream is a lighter cream and has 3% dimethicone to create a protective barrier to protect sensitive skin. It locks-in moisture and locks-out irritants and is therefore more suited to people who experience skin irritation such as dermatitis, eczema and psoriasis. Natural actives will also restore problem skin. NS Protective Hand Cream is for people whose hands are irritated by the environment
NS Working Hands Intensive is a thicker, intensive cream. It also contains dimethicone for barrier protection but has more actives for helping to repair extremely dry, damaged hands and split fingers. NS Working Hands is for people whose hands work in harsh environments.
