Atrix Medicated Hand Cream Jar

Japan's most trusted medicated hand cream — KAO Atrix Medicated tube formula has protected Japanese working hands through cold winters and repeated washing since the Atrix line launched in the 1960s. As a certified quasi-drug product, this tube contains active pharmaceutical ingredients that go beyond cosmetic moisturising to actively treat rough, chapped, and cracked skin. The dense, non-watery cream creates a sustained occlusive barrier that locks moisture in while active ingredients accelerate the skin's repair cycle. The tube format makes it easy to dispense a precise amount with one hand — a practical choice for kitchen workers, nurses, and anyone whose hands are in water repeatedly throughout the day. The fragrance is minimal and fades quickly, making it workplace-friendly. A staple in Japanese medicine cabinets, trusted by dermatologists and pharmacists alike.
