As it stands, given the current COVID-19 situation, we are all washing our hands (or should be) much more than we might otherwise normally do so.

"We are seeing more and more hand dermatitis," explains New York City-based board-certified dermatologist Dhaval Bhanusali, who is not affiliated with Augustinus Bader. "By overwashing, we strip the good oils from our skin and leave it dry and susceptible to breakdown."

It's formulated with a blend of ultra-nourishing ingredients, including vitamin E, glycerin, and shea butter, as well as honey and white peony extract — both of which also have natural antibacterial properties.

The brand is donating 12,000 units of its popular Rich Cream to hospitals around the world — this is "the majority of the stock we had on hand," Rosier says (and each bottle retails for $265, so you can do the math on that one).
