Dry Skin Relief
Customers rave about the hand cream's ability to provide significant relief from dry, chapped, red, and itchy skin. Many have tried multiple products without success but found this one to be effective, even working overnight to heal and prevent cracking. A small number of customers mention an odd scent and discomfort upon application.
Moisturizing Effectiveness
Customers highly praise the moisturizing effectiveness of ShiKai's Borage Therapy Hand Cream. It works well for dry hands, absorbs easily, and leaves skin feeling hydrated. Some customers have used it for years and even recommend it for sensitive skin and as a body lotion. A few mention its unscented feature and its ability to prevent hand cracking during winter. However, some users note that it takes a while for the moisturizing effect to fully set in.
Non-Greasy Texture
Most customers praise the non-greasy texture of ShiKai hand cream, allowing it to quickly absorb into their skin without leaving a residue or getting on clothing. A small group of customers have reported issues with the product's consistency and scent, finding it unpleasant and difficult to use effectively.
Long Lasting
Customers are generally satisfied with the long lasting nature of the hand cream. They mention that a small amount goes a long way and some have used it for an extended period of time. However, a few customers have had difficulty getting in touch with customer service.

Once it has dried, it leaves no residue and does not make hands slick or difficult to pick up objects.
Price
I wish it came larger as this small size is expensive.
Until i found this product at the health food store on sale.
Shipping
Quick search here and we were able to purchase it again.
First time i found this item was at the vitamin shop and then they stopped carrying it so i went to amazon.
Used it while i wait for o'keefe's working hands to arrive tomorrow.
Competitiveness
I have had much more expensive creams as well as cheaper ones, and this is the best!
I use a lot of other products by shikai and know their lotions to be first rate.
