Augustinus Bader The Hand Treatment with TFC8®

Intensive Care for Dry, Chapped and Overwashed Hands

Augustinus Bader The Hand Treatment is a luxuriously rich yet fast-absorbing hand cream formulated to deeply nourish, hydrate and protect dry, chapped or frequently washed hands.

Powered by TFC8®, this daily hand treatment helps support visible skin renewal while improving the appearance of dryness, rough texture, uneven tone and signs of aging. Shea butter, glycerin, white peony extract and vitamin E help replenish moisture, soothe discomfort and defend the skin against environmental stressors.

The non-greasy formula absorbs beautifully, leaving hands feeling softer, smoother, more supple and comfortably hydrated.

How to Use

Apply to clean, dry hands as often as needed.

1. Massage a small amount over the hands, fingers and wrists.
2. Pay particular attention to dry knuckles, cuticles and rough areas.
3. Reapply after handwashing or whenever the skin feels dry.
4. For a more intensive treatment, apply a generous layer before bed and allow it to absorb overnight.

Loshen & Crem’s Recommendation

The hands are often one of the first areas to reveal dehydration, environmental exposure and uneven tone, yet they are frequently forgotten in a daily skincare routine.

We recommend keeping The Hand Treatment beside your sink, at your desk or in your handbag and applying it after washing your hands. Its rich but fast-absorbing texture is especially helpful during Edmonton’s dry winters or for anyone who washes their hands frequently throughout the day.

For an overnight ritual, massage a slightly more generous amount over the hands, knuckles and cuticles before bed.
