Hi is this fragrance free. Also is it ok to have on your hands when food prepping? Do you gave to apply each time you wash your hands? Thanks

Gloves In A Bottle is a shielding lotion, which means that it bonds to the outer-most layer of skin cells and becomes part of the skin itself. It does not wash off any more than the outer layer of skin washes off. The skin still breathes and perspires naturally as shielding lotions comes off naturally, as the outermost layer of skin cells are sloughed off or exfoliated, well within 24 hours. In order for shielding lotions to work, as described above, they must be applied to clean, dry skin. Their effect may be limited or may not work as described if applied over the top of some other substance or onto skin that is not clean and dry. Gloves In A Bottle is absolutely 100% free from all parabens, phthalates, triclosan, sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) / sodium laureth sulfate (SLES), formaldehyde, toluene, propylene glycol, salicylates, gluten, latex, dairy, wheat, soy, peas, corn, animal products, added fragrance, colorant, peanuts, and all other nuts. It is vegan, dermatology tested and prescribed, hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic (will not clog pores), cruelty free, and every ingredient is on the FDA’s most safe list. It is so safe that is has been approved for hospital use in operating rooms through a series of clinical studies conducted by independent laboratories and hospitals.

What is the dimethicone percentage?

Less than 1%. It is one of the most widely used ingredients in cosmetics. Dimethicone works, most generally, as a skin protectant - it prevents water loss by forming a hydrating barrier on the skin. Dimethicome has a unique fluidity that makes it easily spreadable. When applied to the skin, its known for creating a subtle gloss that feels smooth and silky to touch. It also acts a mild water repellent by forming a protective barrier on the skin, and can fill in fine lines/wrinkles on the face, giving it a temporary “plump” look. There are many different versions of dimethicone. A high percent of skin care product use inexpensive (inferior) versions which have gotten a bad reputation. Gloves In A Bottle has always only used a very specialized medical grade dimethicone that, when formulated with other ingredients, actually bonds to the cells of the outer-most layer of skin. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved its use as a "skin protectant" ingredient in over-the-counter (OTC) drug products. Furthermore, the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel reviewed the data surrounding dimethicone, and assessed it as safe to use in personal care products.

Gloves In A Bottle is a shielding lotion http://www.skincarenet.org/shielding-lotion.html , which means that it bonds to the outer-most layer of skin cells and becomes part of the skin itself. It does not wash off any more than the outer layer of skin washes off. The skin still breathes and perspires naturally as shielding lotions come off naturally, on a microscopic level, as the outermost layer of skin cells are sloughed off or exfoliated, well within 24 hours. After it is absorbed into the outer layer of skin there is a remaining surface residue that does wash off. In order for shielding lotions to work, as described above, they must be applied to clean, dry skin. Their effect may be limited or may not work as described if applied over the top of some other substance or onto skin that is not clean and dry. Once Gloves In A Bottle is properly applied, it rapidly becomes part of the outer layer of skin itself and virtually undetectable, most often within a minute or less. An amount about the size of a pea is usually all that is needed for a normal size pair of hands. Once a matrix is formed between the outermost layer of skin cells, the excess can be washed off. If not, it usually just rolls off. Gloves In A Bottle has been clinically tested and proven to be hypoallergenic and every ingredient is on FDA's most safe list.
