‘I have been using Derma Guard® now for 3 years. Prior to using it my hands suffered from severe cracking itching skin. It is fantastic. No more cracks. No more itchiness'

I've been using Derma Guard for my gardening hands for quite a while. I've found it absolutely marvellous - my hands heal up overnight after I've had them in the soil!

I have been using Derma Guard for a few months now. Its the best product I've ever purchased for use when gardening. No more sticky, manure/compost smelling hands when I have finished (I do not like gardening with gloves). Hands wash clean so easily and no more dry scratchy skin from my alkaline soil.

I first came across Derma Guard several years ago while working in a Lab at a Brisbane University. It did the job then but after moving to a desk job, I hadn't given it much thought until recently. My Sonoperates a hydraulics maintenance workshop and he mentioned that some of his technicians were having severe skin problems with the oils and solvents they use every day and that off-the-shelf barrier creams were greasy and innefective. I remembered the Derma Guard and he introduced it to the workshop jut over 12 months ago. His staff have been problem free ever since. They started with the pressure pack foam but have found the pump pack just as effective. These technicians have their hands in oils and solvents all day and they swear by Derma Guard - it realy works!

Hi there, I got the Derma Guard about 6months ago and have found its just grate. I put it on 3 times a day as I am a mechanic my hands get a lot of oil's over them. My hands where cracking from the fuel and oils from the days work. Washing them would don't help. I got over using gloves all the time, very hard in summer. My hands where all ways black and cracked. I have not had a crack on my hands for months and if I work at home and don't put the Derma Guard on my hands are a lot harder to clean.

This stuff really works! I use it when I'm staining outdoor furniture and it makes washing the paint off my hands a breeze.
