FAQ
-
1. How is HS different to other barrier creams?
Other barrier creams tend to block the pores and wash off after every wash or simply lose their protective characteristic if the person naturally perspires. HandShield provides a natural barrier and continues to moisturise and protect for up to five hours even after continuous washing with soap and water. So, it's a product that provides real value.

2. What does HandShield do to the hands?
Absolutely nothing! It is entirely harmless to the skin and allows the skin to perspire naturally. It doesn't clog the pores, impair mobility, or sense of touch. It is not greasy. HandShield is even safe and gentle enough to protect a baby's skin from nappy rash.

"After a couple of hard days work on the farm my hands would start to crack and then bleed.
Nothing that my doctor prescribed seemed to work.
My doctor recommended that I sell my farm and do something different to fix my hand problem.
HandShield fixed it in a few weeks. I can’t believe it after seventeen years of
trying everything under the sun."
