Palmer cocoa butter intensive relief hand cream.

The Science of “Barrier-Repair” and Urea-Powered Hydration
Palmer’s Intensive Relief solves the problem of “Extreme Transepidermal Water Loss” (where standard lotions physically fail to stop moisture from escaping the skin) by utilizing a specialized humectant-rich delivery system. While basic creams just sit on the surface, this addresses your skin’s health with a Dual-Action Healing System:

Urea & Glycerin Complex: This cream is physically enriched with Urea, a natural moisturizing factor (NMF) that physically attracts water into the deeper layers of the skin. It physically dissolves rough, dry patches and flakes, allowing the skin to look “renewed” rather than scaly.

Cocoa Butter & Vitamin E: It physically incorporates pure, ethically sourced Cocoa Butter. This “super-ingredient” physically creates a protective moisture barrier that locks in hydration for up to 48 hours. The addition of Vitamin E physically helps to improve the appearance of minor scars and rough texture.

Sensitive-Skin Engineering: It is physically formulated to be Fragrance-Free, Hypoallergenic, and Paraben-Free. This physically ensures it is safe for those with contact dermatitis or eczema-prone skin, providing relief from itching and irritation without stinging.

Fast-Absorbing Texture: It is physically designed to “melt” into the skin. Unlike thick balms that physically leave your hands sticky, this formula physically absorbs in seconds, leaving your hands with a “silky-matte” finish that doesn’t interfere with your daily tasks.

Key Ingredients & Benefits:

Urea (High Concentration): Physically exfoliates dead skin and deep-hydrates the epidermis.

Vitamin E: Physically provides antioxidant protection and skin repair.

Oat & Soy Proteins: Physically soothe redness and strengthen the skin barrier.

Dimethicone: Physically provides a breathable, protective “glove” against the elements.

Why You Will Love It:

The “Invisible Glove” Effect: It physically feels as though you are wearing a protective shield that resists washing off, keeping your hands soft through multiple hand-washings.

Targeted Healing: It is physically one of the few hand creams that can effectively “heal” painful cracks on knuckles and cuticles in just a few days of use.

Spa-Level Softness: It physically transforms “Sahara-dry” skin into a supple, radiant surface without the heavy scent of traditional cocoa butter products.

How to Use for “Total-Relief” Results:

Preparation: Physically ensure your hands are clean and slightly damp to trap extra moisture.

Application: Squeeze a pea-sized amount onto the back of your hands—this formula is physically concentrated, so a little goes a long way.

Technique: Physically massage into the cuticles, knuckles, and any areas where the skin is physically peeling or hard.

Overnight Treatment: For severe cases, physically apply a thicker layer before bed and wear cotton gloves. This physically forces the Urea and Cocoa Butter to penetrate deeper.

Frequency: Use at least twice daily. For those in high-washing professions (like healthcare or food service), physically reapply after every third wash to maintain the barrier.
