Just the other day I was thinking, “Hey, isn’t it about time for some kind of revolutionary change in skin care?” Since revolutionary skin care changes are a relatively frequent phenomenon, and I’m pseudo-psychic, it was a pretty safe bet, but I didn’t know quite how drastic the change would be. This is not your mother’s hand lotion.
Fact is, you’ve probably never used a skin care product that works quite like Gloves in a Bottle. Okay, it’s not really gloves—but you probably figured that out. It’s a liquid (at first) that bonds with your skin, making it impenetrable. Impenetrable skin keeps drying irritants at bay and prevents sunburn and hangnails. It also maintains your sense of touch at an all-time low level, which will freak you out at first.
Best of all, the gloves do not need to be removed, ever. In fact, that’s impossible, as they’re both invisible and waterproof. What happens is that the gloves erode with time; the ad copy says they come off with exfoliated skin cells. Sooner or later you’ll notice your hands aren’t gloved, and that’s when it’s time to apply more. When you do, remember: a little goes a long way. If you're thrifty you can probably get fifty pairs of gloves from just one bottle!
