Pros: Cures dry skin, leaves hands soft and smooth
Cons: Herbal-medicine smell, initial greasy feel

My hands are not pretty. No fancy nails or shiny nail polish. My fingers, however, do sport some lovely hangnails, if that counts. To top things off, my hands are dry, chapped, and ugly because I am a frequent hand-washer. My hands look old! Sigh! ...

Cons: More expensive than Bag Balm. Smells strange.

Burt’s Bees Hand Salve is a good product and similar to Bag Balm Ointment. If you don’t know what bag balm is, then it’s a rub-on for cow teats when they are dry and chapped. Many rural people use that for chapped human body parts, and BB Hand Salve is...

Pros: natural ingredients, fast absorbing, economical
Cons: difficult to open container

THIS IS A SALVE, NOT A LOTION
