"I tried a new hand cream, the Prequel Hand Wrap hand shielding lotion. It's a water resistant film former with lipids, so it helps prevent moisture loss from your skin even when you're washing your hands. I ran out of the hand salve I'd used for years and wanted to try something else, so I gave this a try and so far so good. When I ran out of my old one, the edges of my nails were dry and I had a lot more hangnails, but since working this into my routine that dryness has really cleared up. It's a nice feeling hand cream, it doesn't feel greasy, and it just really keeps my hands nice and hydrated overnight."

"For throughout the day when you can't be bothered with all that it's too messy this is a great basic hand moisturizer I have rather enjoyed"

All 4 takes from Dr. Sam Ellis
Introducing Prequel's NEW Hand Wrap Shielding Lotion | Dr. Sam Ellis
"Having a product like Hand Wrap that actually serves to protect your hands in the moment when you're doing your day-to-day activities was so important to me. [...] What I love about this is as soon as you apply it the dry down is almost instant yet it leaves this very light protective film on the skin that I honestly forget about. I don't feel it but I know it's there because when I wash my hands the skin on my hands doesn't feel depleted afterward. I also really love how this product layers so you can apply it at one point in time during the day and then go back in a couple hours later and reapply it and it doesn't feel like it's accumulating a weird residue on the hands. [...] When you first apply this it feels very silky, kind of slippy. I love how fast it absorbs into the skin on your hands and it doesn't have this soapiness where it stays white on your skin and you can't get it to rub in. I hate that especially with hand products."

"I love the one from my brand prequel it's called hand wrap and the reason I like this one so much is it kind of forms a film over your hands so that your hands are not sticky but they are protected from the elements so it is my favorite daytime go-to hand cream"
Anti Aging Hand Solutions | Fix Crepey Skin, Age Spots and More | Dr. Sam Ellis | Dr. Sam Ellis
"With my brand prequel we did create something called hand wrap which is a super lightweight lotion that you can use on your hands but also creates a little bit of a seal or a barrier from external forces"
