My Doctor's Diagnosis: Analysis and Target

Visit Carrefour Hand Cream Raspberry is primarily intended for people suffering from dry skin on their hands, a common problem exacerbated by repeated washing, cold weather, or the use of detergents. My analysis of the formulation reveals a clear desire on the part of the Carrefour brand to offer a nourishing, protective, and sensorial cream, suitable for daily use to restore skin comfort and prevent dehydration.

Formula Analysis: Key Assets

Three main assets catch my attention:

• Glycerine : A powerful humectant, it attracts and retains water in the stratum corneum, promoting lasting and immediate hydration.
• Shea butter Rich in fatty acids and phytosterols, it intensely nourishes, repairs the skin barrier, and soothes irritation.
• Sweet almond oil : Emollient, it softens the skin, limits water loss, and provides softness and comfort.

The presence of red fruit extracts (raspberry, strawberry, blackberry) enriches the formula with antioxidants, helping to protect the skin from external aggressions. The addition of vitamin E (tocopherol) reinforces this protective action against oxidative stress.

Tips and Application Ritual

I apply this cream to clean, dry hands as often as necessary, especially after washing or before exposure to cold weather. It can be used morning and evening. Its formula is compatible with most moisturizing or repairing skincare products, but I recommend avoiding immediate use with exfoliating or alcohol-based products to prevent irritation of fragile skin.

My Final Verdict & Safety Opinion

Visit Carrefour Hand Cream Raspberry stands out for its rich moisturizing and nourishing agents, ideal for dry to very dry skin. Its texture is creamy and its fruity fragrance adds a pleasant sensory dimension. The only downside is that the presence of fragrance and potential allergens (benzyl alcohol) may not be suitable for very sensitive or atopic skin. In conclusion, it is an effective and affordable product for everyday hand care.
