      1. Gold Bond Men’s Everyday Essentials Lotion

      This lotion combines all three significant effects from the best hand lotion for men in a very affordable and quick-drying formula.

      Specs

      Amount: 14.5 oz
      Effects: Moisturizes, Repairs, Soothes
      Scent: Fresh

      Who Is It Best For?

      It’s the best hand lotion for men who enjoy the idea of one bottle taking care of all their hand care needs.

      Key Features

      This is a great lotion that’s both affordable and effective for multiple different problems.

      You can use this lotion for three different needs: moisturizing, repairing, and soothing.

      The moisturizing aspect will help you take care of your hands if they quickly become dry or if you’re working during the winter.

      After just a few minutes your hands will feel healthier and smoother.

      This best hand lotion for men also has reparative effects.

      While this can’t be seen immediately, applying the lotion for a few weeks will eventually lead to skin that dries out less frequently that maintains a healthy color.

      The lotion also feels great to use, imparting a soothing effect as you apply it.

      This lotion isn’t too thick or chunky, meaning that it’ll be pretty pleasing to spread it over your hands.

      It’s also not sticky; in fact, it dries pretty quickly and gets to work immediately.

      Why does this matter?

      Lotion that gets to work immediately or dries quickly allows you to get back to work on whatever project or task you have been working on for the day.

      This male hand lotion really needs to allow for continued work after application, since men frequently use their hands for manual labor even after applying lotion whereas women usually don’t.

      The lotion does have a distinct smell that’s labeled as “Fresh” on the packaging.

      Value for Money

      When we tested this best hand lotion for men, we couldn’t really tell what this was supposed to refer to.

      Instead, it reminded us of generic chemical freshness, which may not be to your liking, especially if you have in use these kinds of products before.

      Also, the bottlecap tends to leak, especially if you turn it upside down as the lotion starts to run out.

      But overall, these minor flaws can be overlooked given how affordable the lotion is and all of the value it can bring in one bottle.

      Check out the hundreds of customer reviews here on Amazon.

      Pros

      Easy to use 1 lotion for multiple needs
      Very affordable
      Dries quickly
      Not too thick

      Cons

      The smell is indistinct/odd
      Cap is not tight

      2. Jack Black Industrial Strength Hand Healer

      This lotion is a moisturizing and reparative product that can help you return to work even if your hands are always dry and cracking.

      Specs

      Amount: 16 oz
      Effects: Moisturizes, Repairs
      Scent: None

      Who Is It Best For?

      This is a formula specially designed for manual laborers or men who often build with their hands.

      Key Features

      This best hand lotion for men is designed for use by the working man who’s regularly using tools or is outside using his hands to get things done.

      To that end, it does two main jobs: moisturize and repair.

      The moisturizing effect is well-known and is pretty universal among hand lotions.

      The reparative effect is more interesting.

      After you apply it, you’ll find that your hands feel a lot better and callouses will start to appear less frequently.

      Applying this lotion to hands with tiny cuts or bruises is also effective, as the moisturizer will toughen your hands over time and prevent the skin from drying out.

      How does this help?

      Dry skin is easier to crack or break, especially under manual labor.

      Value for Money

      By ensuring that your hands aren’t as dry and the skin is a little tighter, you’ll experience fewer injuries thanks to this hand cream.

      You’ll also enjoy the feel of the lotion; it doesn’t use grease or oil or any slippery component, meaning that it’s kind of thick instead.

      This might take a little getting used to, but once you’ve applied it, the formula actually dries very quickly and doesn’t leave behind any residue.

      This means the cleaning up is a non-issue and you can get back to work right away.

      You don’t even have to limit its use to your hands; you can use it on your feet, as well, and experience the same great results.

      Many working men often suffer from callouses on their hands and feet, and this is a perfect solution that doesn’t take a lot of time out of your day or requires you to purchase several different products.

      While it is a little pricey, we think this is an excellent pick for men who are looking for the best handle lotion for mechanics who are looking for something that can help them maintain an active lifestyle where their hands are their primary tools.

      Check out the hundreds of customer reviews here on Amazon.

      Pros

      Helps heal small callouses
      Can be used on feet as well
      Not oily/greasy
      Leaves minimal residue

      Cons

      A bit pricey
      A little thick

      3. NIVEA Men Maximum Hydration 3-in-1 Nourishing Lotion

      This is a lotion that can be used to moisturize your hands, body, or face.

      Specs

      Amount: 16.9 oz
      Effects: Moisturizes
      Scent: Fresh

      Who Is It Best For?

      It’s the best hand lotion for men who don’t want to have to bother with differentiating between different lotions for different parts of their body.

      Key Features

      This lotion focuses on one duty above all others: moisturizing.

      Because of this focus, the lotion is exceptional at restoring hydration to your skin, even if you have chronically dry hands from daily work or a skin condition.

      The lotion is absorbed into your hands and skin in just seconds and begins its work immediately.

      Our testers were able to tell an immediate difference right after rubbing the lotion in, so it’s okay if you need relief from your dry hands or to squeeze in between working tasks during a busy day.

      The lotion also lasts for quite a long time.

      The lotion has a 24-hour lasting effect.

      This makes it really convenient for men who don’t want to have to take their lotion to work; you can just apply it in the morning before you leave and you’ll be all set for the rest of the day.

      Value for Money

      You can use this lotion on your face, hands, or body, so it’s really an excellent fix for dry skin anywhere you may experience it, not just your hands.

      For face-specific lotion, we’ve already done an in-depth guide onfacial cream for men.

      However, there is a small downside in that this lotion has that strange fresh smell that we talked about earlier.

      It’s difficult to pinpoint, but it’s not particularly appealing, either.

      The cap is also particularly bad to use, as it only depresses by a small amount with each press.

      This means that you’ll have to squeeze several times before you get the right amount of lotion onto your hands.

      But altogether, despite the minor flaws, this is still a pretty solid hydration lotion that’s a good pick for men who need to moisturize their skin above all else.

      Check out the hundreds of customer reviews here on Amazon.

      Pros

      Long-lasting
      Rapid absorption
      Suitable for body, face, and hands
      No greasy after-feel

      Cons

      Abstract fresh scent
      Bad bottle cap

      4. O’Keeffe’s Working Hands Hand Cream

      This cream is a heavy-duty variety to repair and moisturize extremely cracked or dry hands from a day of manual labor.

      Specs

      Amount: 3.4 oz
      Effects: Repairs, Soothes, Moisturizes
      Scent: None

      Who Is It Best For?

      This is an excellent choice for any man who wants a long-lasting hand cream that can repair and protect for many days or weeks to come from dry cracked hands.

      Key Features

      This is another best hand cream for mechanics.

      It’s particularly heavy-duty and is designed to help men who have cracked or dehydrated hands.

      It’s reparative effects are so powerful because it actually generates the protective layer over the skin of your hands to trap in moisture and prevent any extra moisture from being lost throughout the day.

      This layer is so active that you’ll feel a real difference within just a few days, and if you consistently apply the cream the effect will extend into weeks and months.

      In addition to the reparative effects, the cream also suits your chapped hands as a moisture trapping byproduct.

      You’ll be able to use your hands more freely and more comfortably as when you apply this cream consistently.

      Value for Money

      The ingredients used to make this product are also safe for diabetics who have certain limitations due to the risk of skin absorption of harmful sugars and chemicals.

      The limitation of this hand cream is that you should apply it at specific times.

      Try to use this best hand lotion for men after you’ve bathed or thoroughly washed your hands, or before bedtime.

      These are the most effective times to moisturize your dry skin, but they do limit its application if you have a busy day and want to take this with you to work.

      Because of this, it’s best thought of as a long-term solution for dry hands rather than a daily fix to relieve a little discomfort.

      If this sounds like something that would benefit you, we can’t recommend this cream enough.

      Although you only get a small amount in the tin, we think it’s very much worth buying a pack of multiple tins at once.

      Check out the thousands of customer reviews here on Amazon.

      Pros

      Creates a protective layer over the skin
      Boosts moisture levels
      You’ll feel long-lasting results
      Safe if you have Diabetes

      Cons

      A small amount of cream for the price
      Should apply at specific times

      5. Burt’s Bees Ultimate Hand Cream

      This cream is a great all-purpose product that can moisturize and exfoliate the skin of your hands.

      Specs

      Amount: 3.2 oz
      Effects: Moisturizes, Soothes
      Scent: None

      Who Is It Best For?

      It’s the best hand lotion for men who have sensitive skin or who will enjoy the soothing effect of exfoliation as dead skin is removed.

      This can be particularly effective for men who have sensitive skin and to struggle with their daily shave because of this.

      We’ve also got a guide on the best aftershaves. Take a look!

      While this lotion does have a “fresh” scent, our testers actually found that it wasn’t as noticeable or as strange as other fresh scents.

      While you can tell it’s there, it doesn’t lead to any adverse reactions or noticeably hampers your overall odor or aesthetic in any way.

      But while the bottle claims that the moisturizing effects can be felt for a full 24 hours, our testers actually found that the real results are a bit less impressive.

      You can expect the lotion to last for several hours, to be sure, but it’s definitely less than a full day.

      As such, you’ll need to apply this lotion several times per day if you want its effects for all of your waking hours.

      Also, the lotion tends to pool at the bottom, meaning that it’s hard to get the last remnants out as you start to run dry.

      While both of these aspects are annoying, they’re not enough to discount the value that this lotion brings when you consider all of the areas in which you can apply it and how much lotion you get per purchase.

      It’s an excellent bulk-focused pick for men who were going to buy a lot of hand lotion regardless, and who don’t mind having to apply it multiple times per day.
