Description

Essensoy Deep Treatment Cream is a hand moisturizer described by the manufacturer as a blend of pure botanical extracts (chamomile, comfrey and aloe vera gel) and high concentrations of organic soy lipids which contains natural vitamin E, essential fatty acids and lecithin that does not affect glove integrity and has not been tested on animals. Essensoy Deep Treatment Cream is designed to penetrate quickly, repair collagen below the surface of the skin, help restore natural elasticity, and replenish the skin's moisture level. Because it is a deep treatment cream, only a tiny soybean-size drop is needed. Proper application of Essensoy Deep Treatment Cream leaves no greasy film, insuring tactile sensitivity and easy donning of exam gloves. Essensoy Deep Treatment Cream is formulated to treat intensive dry areas, is hypo-allergenic and non-comedogenic, and contains no mineral oils or alcohol, and is dye-free. It protects skin from dermatitis caused by frequent hand washings and other occupational exposure. Essensoy is also available in Intensive Moisturizing Lotion with Yuzu Fruit and Herbal Mint scent. Essensoy Deep Treatment Cream was evaluated by 31 consultants in over 2000 uses. It received a 97% rating.

Suggested Retail Cost

Product Features

Consultants liked the convenience of the pump bottle and found it easy to control the amount of cream dispensed. By using a small amount of cream per use, as recommended by the manufacturer, the bottle lasted a long time. Avoiding excessive cream also enhanced the ease of donning gloves. Of the consultants participating in the evaluation, 84% had dry, chapped skin, 26% had redness and 45% itchiness, at the beginning of the study.  At the end of the evaluation period, 81% of consultants with the indicated skin problems stated that Essensoy Deep Treatment Cream solved their skin problems. Calluses were softened and dry cuticles were improved. While the cream does not carry a specific scent, many consultants noted an unpleasant odor. Eighty-seven percent of consultants reported that Essensoy Deep Treatment Cream improved the feel of their hands. Sixty-four percent of consultants reported that Essensoy Deep Treatment Cream was more effective than other hand creams and 32% reported it was equivalent to other products they had used. Eighty-four percent would switch to Essensoy Deep Treatment Cream and 94% would recommend it.

Clinical Tip

Use as directed - only a pea-sized amount to avoid greasy feeling.
