I usually buy 2 or 3 large tubes of Alhydran every year when we visit Aruba. This year I started sharing with friends and family who had problems with dry hands. I found that it has been the only thing that works for me so I figured I would pass it along. I ran out before my annual trip to Aruba so I took advantage of a sale and ordered 2 more tubes from the website. When I started using them I noticed that the cream was thicker and a bit different. I figured it was something I would have to get used to if I wanted to deal with my overly dry hands. I just arrived in Aruba and stopped in to visit the Aruba Aloe store where I normally buy my yearly supply. There was a sample tube so I decided to check if it was like the new order I just received. I was surprised that the formula in the tubes found in Aruba is different from what I received back in the US. I will now have to purchase more from here before I return home and throw away what I just got from the website. I'm definitely not as happy as I usually am and I will never recommend people but it from the website.
