Crickets all round… It’s an area easily forgotten.

If you sometimes look down at your keyboard, steering wheel, or phone and think, "I wish I took better care of my hands" – do not panic. You are in very good company. Life gets busy, we wash our hands fifty times a day, they go through a lot – and while we religiously apply our serums, retinals, and SPF to our face, our hands are left to fend for themselves. It happens.

Here’s the real kicker – our hands actually age faster. The skin on the back of our hands is naturally thinner than our face and has far fewer oil glands, meaning constant exposure to the elements shows up there first with wrinkles, age spots and crepeiness. Needless to say, a quick squirt of whatever hand cream is rolling around at the bottom of our handbag may be ill-equipped to undo all of that…

What ingredients should I look for in a hand cream for 40+ hands?

You need targeted actives that have been chosen to specifically address the issues of ageing hands. Inspired by in-clinic treatments, we spent years developing Take Back Time Overnight Hand Concentrate to give you real, visible change at home. First, an L-ornithine lipo-complex acts as an at-home bio-lipofiller, signaling cells in the deeper dermal layers to rebuild lost volume and cushion skin from within. To address stubborn dark spots, we’ve developed the formula with deep delivery alpha arbutin to shut down excess melanin production at the source, while a plant-derived bio-retinoid accelerates cell turnover to visibly break up age spots without irritation. Finally, C-17 signal peptides act as messengers, directly instructing fibroblast cells to synthesise fresh collagen and reinforce the skin matrix. Together, this powerful trio replaces papery, thin texture with firm, plump, and even skin.

Why Use a Microneedle on Your Hands?

The secret to this protocol is the partnership between our active-packed Hand Concentrate and Take Back Time Microneedle.

The microneedle gently, painlessly, creates microscopic channels across the back of your hands. These invisible pathways allow the concentrate’s potent active ingredients to get straight to work where they’re needed most – boosting collagen production to restore plumpness, and disrupting the melanin cycles that cause dark spots.

Moving Hand Care from Your Handbag to Your Bedside Table

A traditional hand cream is great for a quick flash of comfort, but it offers purely surface-level hydration, and the second you wash your hands, it’s straight down the drain. It’s time to move hand care out of our handbags.

This is anything but a traditional hand moisturiser. It’s a global-first, skincare-grade treatment protocol designed to reclaim the night. While you sleep, your skin enters its natural repair mode, giving us an uninterrupted window for the innovative ingredients to target lost volume, dark spots, and structural collapse. We’re taking inspiration from the gold-standard approach you would expect from a clinic – laser, lipofilling, and microneedling – and bringing it straight to your nightstand.

Clinical Results That Speak for Themselves

We like our claims backed up by cold, hard proof. Take Back Time Hand is a global first – a clinically proven, at-home microneedle protocol engineered specifically for the unique structure of hand skin.

In our clinical trials, the 4-week results were undeniable:*

• Smooth crepey, papery skin: Visibly firms, refines, and tightens fragile texture.

• Visibly reduce dark spots: Targets discolouration for a clearer, more even skin tone.

• Restore lost hand volume: Plumps from within to soften the look of prominent veins and bones.

• 24-hour hydration: Up to +124%** immediate increase in skin hydration and 24-hour moisture from a single application*

*12-week clinical study, split-hand design, 32 women aged 45–70.

**Instrumentally tested

Best of all? 98% of women in our trial agreed the microneedling process was completely seamless to integrate into their evening routine.

How to Use the Protocol for Maximum Impact

Two minutes before your head hits the pillow is all it takes:

Prep: Ensure your hands are cleansed and completely dry.

Microneedle: Lay your hand flat. Gently pass the Take Back Time Microneedle over the back of your hands using light, comfortable pressure. Roll vertically, horizontally, and diagonally in small squares for about 60 seconds per hand, avoiding your fingers and knuckles.

Treat: Massage two pumps of the Hand Concentrate into the back of your hands, letting the active ingredients sink right into those fresh micro-channels.

Sleep: Let the formula work miracles overnight while your body rests.

It’s time for something that finally performs in bed…
