From endless texting to frequent washing, our hands go through more than we give them credit for. So, why not treat them to a moment of indulgence?
Whether you’re simply spoiling yourself (as you should) or are hunting for a gift idea, these hand creams from some of your favourite designer houses offer more than just hydration. Ahead, four luxurious picks that pamper, protect and look good on any vanity.
01 - Celine Hand Cream, SGD70 for 30 ML
Leave it to Celine to make hand cream feel like a couture experience. Housed in a minimalist white tube with a black faceted cap embellished with the iconic Triomphe emblem, it is as stylish as it is sensorial. The melt-in formula, enriched with hyaluronic acid and vegetable glycerin, not only absorbs in seconds. It also leaves hands moisturised, perfumed and soft.
Available in a selection of signature scents, including Cologne Céleste, La Peau Nue, Parade and Reptile, for pure olfactory luxury. As a bonus, pair it with ultra-stylish Triomphe Tube Squeezer (SGD370) so not a single drop goes to waste. CELINE
02 - Chanel La Crème Main, SGD98 for 50 ML
There’s lots to love about Chanel’s signature hand cream. Firstly, its adorable ergonomic egg-shaped packaging that fits perfectly in the palm of your hand. But inside, the silky and lightweight cream will have you reaching for it again and again.
At the formula’s core is a powerhouse complex of camellia-derived ingredients and brightening iris extract. Camellia ceramides strengthen the skin barrier, camellia oil nourishes and softens, while camellia yeast boosts hydration. It absorbs instantly while leaving hands scented with a delicate floral fragrance. CHANEL
03 - Dior Le Baume, SGD92 for 50 ML
Dior’s Le Baume isn’t just reserved for the hands. It’s a universal balm that also works on the lips, elbows and even the face. The compact, pebble-shaped pod complete with the Dior logomania motif is both smart and sustainable. Made entirely from recycled materials, it conveniently fits into any bag.
Infused with plant-based goodness, this lightweight balm blends soothing centella asiatica with a hydrating cocktail of hyaluronic acid and glycerine. A luxe mix of shea butter, squalane, jojoba oil and essential fatty acids further imparts richness and balance. The payoff? Skin that stays soft, supple and hydrated for up to 72 hours. DIOR
04 - Hermès Les Mains Hermès Complete Hand Care, SGD149 for 50 ML
Indulge both your skin and senses with this ultra-luxe balm that cocoons your skin without heaviness. Formulated to repair and protect, the creamy delight is brimming with white mulberry extract, hyaluronic acid and precious passiflora oil.
The cream that transforms the simple act of moisturising into a luxurious ritual also features an scent crafted by the maison’s director of olfactory creation Christine Nagel. The blend of elegant sandalwood, soothing arnica, fresh rose water and earthy patchouli leaves hands elegantly perfumed throughout the day. HERMÈS
