Love this cream, so soothing on my dry skin and also my eczema.

Great cream, great consistency. Very useful if you are washing hands regularly. Also great for general dry skin.

As I have had skin problems all my life, I am always searching for a product that can help repair my skin, especially on my face, which can be quite dry and damaged at times. I have been using a number of products over the years, but now that I have tried Ego Skin Cream, I find that it does an excellent job of restoring the dry skin problem areas on not only my face, but my hands as well. This product is not greasy at all, but allows me to keep working even when the cream has been applied to my hands. I have found a restorative effect on my face, and would certainly recommend this product to anyone who needs to use a skin cream for dry skin, or to restore and rehydrate their face and hands.

After having my second baby and breastfeeding my skin has been exceptionally dry so using this cream has been wonderful. I found it lovely and thick but not greasy. It was easily absorbed into my skin leaving it feeling nurtured and re-hydrated. Its been great for problem dry areas such as elbows and knees as well. I would definitely buy it and recommend to others I love it! Thank you Ego for producing another fantastic product.

Having just returned from a month camping my hands were very dry, so to find this cream in the post was great timing. It absorbs really quickly and has left my hands feeling a lot softer.

I love this cream, I had used it on my hand after washing dishes, applied it onto my daughter’s face, husband hand. It feel non-greasy and absorb immediately. The slightly dislike it is the fragrance. Overall the product is great. Thank you Ego Pharm for sending this to us.

I have religiously used the same hand cream for quite some number of years. I have tried other alternatives, but have never been satisfied with the results or with the cream itself (most were too greasy). I must say that I was pleasantly surprised with the Ego Skin Cream as not only has it left my hands moisturised, but the cream itself is not greasy and easily absorbs into the skin. I will most definitely consider purchasing this cream in the future.

Hi Sue,
thanks for your feedback!

Glycerin is an outstanding moisturiser. We have known for a long while now that glycerin is beneficial for dry skin conditions. It is only recently that we are beginning to understand why. The skin cells actually contain a passive glycerin transport mechanism in the plasma membranes of the cells known as AQP3, or Aquaglyceroporins. AQP3 work like pumps, co-transporting water and glycerin into and out of the epidermis. As Glycerin is one of the best example of an humectant, it draws water to the skin providing and maintaining hydration to the skin. And where glycerin goes, water will follow.

We also now know that the 2 common causes of dry skin conditions are now recognised to be a low systemic glycerin / skin levels and low numbers / poorly functioning AQP3 in the skin. Both if these causes of dry skin can be alleviated by using topical moisturising products containing glycerin.

kind regards,
egoeveryday

Great all round cream. I used it at night and found that not only did it benefit my face, but my hands too – they are really dry these days from baby wipes & washing, this cream is one of the few things that has worked on my hands. Love a product with multiple benefits!

Posted by Jodie Mitchell 12 October 2011

my husband has a very dry skin. he said it’s a really good skin cream as it non greasy moisturiser and keeps his skin hydrated for whole day. thank you for sending this product to us. we’d like to know all your products for dry skin in the future. Thanks again.

Posted by Feifei Han 12 October 2011

This cream works wonders for very dry and cracked skin. Love that it is non greasy and works fast.

Posted by Rebecca Crough 12 October 2011

Really nice – light and non greasy. Used as a hand cream. Soaked in quickly and smelt nice. Would buy in future.

Posted by Emma 12 October 2011

Thank you so much for choosing me to test drive this wonderful product! I have very sensitive skin and this was been lovely to use. I instantly feel the rich non greasy cream working it’s magic – making my face, neck, chest and hands hydrated and soft. I did experience a slight break out when first applied but think it may have just been my hormones! Love Ego products and already use the tinted suncream every morning! Would be interested in test driving the QV skin cleanser if you need any feedback! Thank you very much!

Posted by Skye 11 October 2011

Worked well, no obvious perfumes unlike most moisturisers, which is great as I have very sensitive skin. Felt it working straight away.

Posted by Alicia 11 October 2011

To be quite honest I don’t like the cream. It’s nice feeling on your skin but basically it is just glycerine with nothing in it to help your skin at all. Sorry. Regards Sue

Posted by Sue Thomas 11 October 2011

I used to get really dry knuckles and in between my fingers from the harsh detergents/chemicals. But now this cream has left my skin smoother and there is no greasiness!! Thank you so much!!

Posted by Amanda O 11 October 2011

Great product. Arrived at a time when I had ran out of the cream I use when shaving. It worked really well. Would use again.

Posted by Susan 11 October 2011

Fabulous moisturiser, non greasy, soaks into my skin and keeps it moisturised for hours. Its lightly scented so its not overpowering. I have very sensitive skin and often have allergic reactions but this skin cream was fine. So far I have just been using it on my face but other reviews suggest using it for your body as well so will try that. Will be switching to this from now on.

Posted by Katherine 11 October 2011

I really like how soft the cream makes my skin feel. I have been using it on my hands and legs and already the skin feels smoother and more hydrated. I love that it’s non greasy aswell. Thanks so much =)

Posted by Rebecca 11 October 2011

Loved the smell of the cream. It was a bit too thick for me to use daily but absolutely fantastic for dry skin areas. Would definitely consider it on my next shopping trip and more so if there was an organic version.

Posted by Katrina 11 October 2011

I found the cream to be pretty thick but non greasy. A good product to use if you have very dry skin. My face became very soft after using this product.

Posted by Elisabeth 11 October 2011

The Ego Skin cream is really lovely. It doesn’t leave any greasy residue on the skin. I had some dry patches on my back and once i started applying Ego, they were gone within 3 days! Love it, thanks for letting me try it!

Posted by Tracey C 11 October 2011

i have dry skin on my elbows and patches on my upper arms, after using ego skin cream my dryness improved dramatically. it was not greasy and i loved how you could tell it was a good quality cream as soon as it came out of the tube. this will now be a staple product in my bathroom!

Posted by Kate Oliver 11 October 2011

Ego Skin Cream is a great moisturiser. I found it really effective for use on my hands and as an all over body moisturiser. I have dry hands and found the cream softened my hands and made an obvious visible difference within a few days.
Thankyou for the opportunity to sample this product and I will certainly be recommending it to my friends and family.

Posted by Katy 11 October 2011

Great product. Very moisturising and not greasy at all. Also good for heel cracks.

Posted by Julie 11 October 2011

I really liked this ego skin cream. It absorbs quickly and is not greasy. I tried it on my feet, hands and lips as recommended in the product description. It moisturises well on the feet and hands leaving them soft and hydrated, though I would be unlikely to use it on my lips as it is a bit thick for that area. It was unfragranced which would appeal to sensitive skin. However, I usually enjoy a soft fragrance from my creams but that is just personal preference :)

Posted by Rachael 10 October 2011

thanks for sending the cream as i really liked it as my son has dry skin and it worked really well on his skin.

thanks once again

Posted by rozina khan 4 October 2011

The Ego Skin cream is a great, non greasy moisturiser. I found it a versatile product that I was able to use all over my body especially on my feet before going to bed. Being non greasy, when i woke up in the morning and got out of bed, I didn’t slip over or leave greasy footprints on the floor :)
Thanks for allowing me to test drive this great product. If anyone is after a skin cream for the whole family, buy Ego Skin cream.

Hi Julia, thanks for your question. Our products are not tested on animals :)

Posted by Helen@ego 8 September 2011

are ego products against animal testing, not tested on animals & do not use ingredients tested on animals?

Posted by Julia 6 September 2011

As I am starting a new practice shortly (Haly Health & Skin Medical Centre) I would really appreciate if you could send me some information on your skin care products and possible arrange a time to get some samples from a rep.
Kind Regards
Isabelle

Wow and wow!

Posted by kelsie 12 February 2011

Thank you for sending me this product to try out. I have really enjoyed it and now have it in my drawer at work to use it each day.

Posted by Vanessa 12 August 2010

Loved the product. As I have extremely dry skin on the hands and face I been using it most days. The difference it has made has been amazing. I have just come back from a beauty treatment and she commented on the change of my skin on my face. I have used it on my one of children and they really liked it. Thank you for allowing me to use this product, I will be buying this skin cream in the future.

Posted by Pauline 11 August 2010

I have just about finish the cream and from the first bit to the last the cream is wonderful I just love it and my skin thanks you too. THANK-YOU very much for this great cream it has made my skin on my face hands and feet look a hole lot better and it feels great to, My mother tried it and is 82 yrs old and love it. It is a very good skin cream THANK-YOU very very much.

Posted by Paulina Hedges 10 August 2010

I have already posted comments to say how thrilled I was with the results after using Ego Skin Cream on my face and hands, and now i would like to say that after using the cream on other dry skin areas over the last week I have already noticed a difference – no itch from dry skin, and the areas feel so much smoother. I have now purchased a larger tube of cream and have suggested hubby also use it to treat his problem skin.

Posted by Maureen Saunders 5 June 2010

A lovely product. Creamy, absorbs well and made my skin feel so soft and smooth ( a nice change as it is normally dry and cracked). I was pleasantly surprised.

Posted by Jennifer Tyrrell 2 June 2010

Thank you for giving me the chance to try your product. I have been using it on my hands morning and evening and my hands are really soft and no longer dry. I am a food and domestic and my hands spend a lot of time in water and the detergent we use for dishes makes hands very dry and it is a pleasure to finally find a cream that actually helps. The big test will be in the next few months of winter. It gets very cold here in Ballarat. Thank you very much. Anne

Posted by Anne Corbett 2 June 2010

Fantastic cream, tried it on my hands and arms, but last few days have been using it on my face, middle age is drying my skin something terrible and this is lovely, just use it at night and it s giving amazing results, better than the expensive creams at $200 a pot. Will definatley buy this once my sample has run out, telling all my friends about it as well.

Posted by Michele Bradbury 2 June 2010

Started to use it just on my hands and after a couple of days deceided to use it on my legs as they get dry and scaly in the colder weather. Can’t believe how much better they feel and look. You have convinced me.
Thank you for my free sample I will be off to buy some on my next shopping day.

Posted by lorraine 1 June 2010

Thank you so much for choosing me to use your product.
I have been using it on my hands, its lovely non- greasy formula makes it easy to use anytime throughout the day without coating everything i touch.
I have seen a difference in the appearance of my skin, nails and cuticles.They are soft, healthy and strong.
I will definately continue to use this product.
Once again thank you!!

Posted by Alysia Hatherly 1 June 2010

Since receiving the product I have used it on my hands and arms every day with great results. I generally use it in the morning and my skin still feels soft and hydrated at the end of the day. I would happily recommend this product to my friends.

Posted by Sharon 1 June 2010

I like how versatile the skin cream is, you can use it on your whole body. I have been using it on my hands and lips and I have found it very beneficial for these dry areas. I will definately be using it during Winter as this is when my hands and lips are at their worst. I like how it absorbs quickly into the skin and doesn’t leave it feeling greasy. I will be recommending it to my friends.

Posted by Julie McNally 1 June 2010

This cream sounds lovely, I wish I had been sent some to try before, asking me to review it.

Posted by Priya Arora 1 June 2010

Where have you been all my life?! I love the scent and texture of Ego skin cream. I used it as a hand and foot cream and found it to be non-greasy and absorbant. My hands and feet are much softer. I am a convert!

Posted by Melissa McNamee 31 May 2010

Great for hands and body, not great for face. Absorbed easily and not too greasy. The packaging is quite unremarkable and I don’t think it would tempt me to pick it up from the shelf.

Posted by Nicole 31 May 2010

For a short time after applying the cream to my face I could feel it there when I touched my skin, although it wasn’t at all oily, and I could apply make-up over it without any problem. I have noticed an improvement to my skin.
Using it on my hands night and morning has really improved their look and feel. They are now much smoother, and not as dry. I will definitely continue using this cream and am keen to try it on other areas which need improvement. I’m sure there will be a notable improvement wherever I use it. Thank you for making this winner available.

Posted by Maureen Saunders 30 May 2010

I love this product. The cream is very rich and non greasy. I noticed a difference within a couple of days of using. I have very dry skin & would happlyrecommend it. I carry it in my handbag & apply it through out the day. My hands are looking so much better and feel like velvet.
Happy customer

Posted by Natalie 30 May 2010

Thank you for choosing me, I love the cream and will continue using it. It has been great on my skin and I have to be careful what I use as I have just finished radiation and chemotherapy and my skin is still very sensitive from the treatments, I also have to keep my skin all over hydrated, and this cream is doing the trick and the added bonus is it doesnít leave me all greas

Posted by Sharon 29 May 2010

I have been using the cream to substitute my regular night time facial cream. I have found it very comfortable to wear and I don’t wake up with that greasy feeling that some other creams have. I am going to continue to use and will be trying it on my hands next. Thank you for sending me the product I have enjoyed it very much.

Posted by Vanessa Nasr 29 May 2010

I loved using Ego Skin Cream on my hands and my arms.Iit really made them softer and the wrinkles less obviuous but I didnt like it on my face. It seemed to leave a coating and when Ii applied my foundation I ended up with little clumps on my face and neck! The smell is not overpowering which is really important to me and i love how easily and quickly it was absorbed. I will happily continue to use it on my hands and arms. Thanks for my sample Ego.

Posted by Carmel Corry 28 May 2010

I love this product!!! It is not oily at all, it feels beautiful on my skin. It leaves my skin feeling soft and supple. I will definitely recommend this product to all my family and friends!!!!

Posted by Cheryle Crosland 28 May 2010

The skin cream is fantastic. I am 38 weeks pregnant and am ‘very dry’ at present. We also live on a farm with wood heater – hence hands are very dry toot.

Using the hand cream has made my hands smooth, healed some ‘cracks’ in the fingers and has left my hands feeling softer again.

The sent of the cream was wonderful, as I am currently very sensitive to smells and the non-greasyness was fantastic as I am able to put it on and then tend to the children.

It is fantastic and I can not complain about the cream and it is also positive for the children to use as well.

I shall be continuing to use the cream on my hands and other dry areas.

thank you

Posted by Katie Donald 27 May 2010

I have used it for 5 days so far and it is very good long lasting, not oily and it leaves your skin soft,smooth and supple,my elbows and heel’s where very dry and now they are smooth. My hands where dry and now they are very soft, smooth and supple, My face is very smooth now I used the cream every day and I look forward too using it every day. My mother who is 82 yrs old tried it and it made her dry skin very soft and smooth, she loved it she said it was great. THANK-YOU very much.

Posted by Paulina Hedges 27 May 2010

I absolutely love being an Ego product tester. Your skin cream is exceptional. I have been using it on my dry hands and love it!! I love its non-greasy formula and now my hands are in tip-top condition. Thank you Ego.

Posted by Nicole Hanham 27 May 2010

I am really enjoying the cream, I have just finished radiation and chemotherapy as I have cancer and I was told just to use sorbolene cream, but I am finding this to be much better and it sinks into the skin and doesn’t make me feel all greasy. I have to keep my skin well hydrated all the time and I will definately keep using this cream. Give it a go, you’ll love it!

Posted by Sharon Jackson 27 May 2010

Great skin cream I used it on my elbows which tend to get quite dry.
After one application they now feel allot smoother will keep using this product!!

Posted by holly sherbourne 27 May 2010

I really loved the cream. My partner had cracked fingers from the he does and it heal in a couple of days. I

Posted by Tanya Casey 27 May 2010

Really lovely!!! Great consistency, and doesn’t feel greasy. It’s fantastic as a hand cream and as a mother who constantly finds herself washing her hands, you still feel there is some cream left as it seems to be absorbed, rather than just stay on the surface as a barrier cream. I will definitely keep using this product.

Posted by Amanda Joslin 27 May 2010

I really like the skin cream, have tryed it on my hands and body, felt soft after absorbtion and non greasy. Will try it on my face once my skin is clear as I suffer psorasis on my face it’s a different skin type to the rest. I love the fact that this cream is actual cream and not full of water like alot of creams/lotions are. Thumbs up!
