PLEASE consider reintroducing Heavy Mettle

Originally posted on Pai

I was disappointed when Heavy Mettle was discontinued, a product I’d used for almost 14 years and also how I discovered Pai as a brand - it was literally the only hand cream I could use without causing further irritation to my dry, cracked and often bleeding (sorry if TMI!!) hands in autumn and winter. After reading the very positive reviews on the website I ordered the new Gentle Genius hand cream in early December and used it for several weeks, but sadly it didn’t live up to my expectations, a few days in my hands were incredibly dry, cracked and bleeding again. I eventually gave up and resumed using my last tube of Heavy Mettle, and my hands improved within days. Much as I like the concept of restoring the skin barrier, I just don’t think the Gentle Genius hand cream is hydrating enough. On a positive, the Gentle Genius hand cream didn’t cause any irritation for me, hence the 2* rating. PLEASE consider reintroducing Heavy Mettle alongside Gentle Genius hand cream.

Repairs dry skin!

Originally posted on Pai

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was gutted when the heavy mettle hand cream by pai was discontinued. However, I now use this cream and honestly it does wonders for my skin barrier. I use it every night before bed. It is thicker than heavy mettle but absorbs really easily if you keep rubbing it in. If I ever forget to apply it before bed I notice the difference that my hands are dry the next day. Definitely recommend it works wonders!

Great on eczema on hands

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great for my very sensitive eczema prone skin on my hands. If I have to use an inferior hand wash I know I can rely on this cream to rehydrate, protect and restore my skin. Would really like a hand wash in this range.

Brilliant hand cream

Excellent product. . . . Thank you Pai

Originally posted on Pai

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have recently started using the gentle genius barrier care handcream. Already I have noticed a big difference in the look and feel of my hands. They are now much smoother than they were prior to using this cream and they look much healthier and the rough, hard skin is softening. I will continue to use this product.
