Moisturising and effective

The packaging is not the greatest since I don't really like the tin packages. They can bend and break, and the lid doesn't screw on particularly well.

However, the product inside it makes up for it. It is so rich and creamy that a little really goes a long way! It's so thick and balmy but still blends really easily and is just soaked up by the skin. It's a real life-changer and hands remain moisturised for a long time, even after washing. It doesn't feel greasy either and plumps up and nourishes the skin.

It definitely smells of lavender but isn't overpowering and is a dream to use. The only downside is the price - it's hard to justify spending $50 on hand cream.

Shea Magic!

I received a small size of this in the Christmas 15' advent calendar. I have used L'occitane products before but not the Shea butter range.

The packaging is a silver tube with a dark blue screw lid. The hand cream comes out fairly easily, so no complaints there.

It is quite a rich cream so you only need a small amount to cover your hands. It smells a bit like lavender and you can definitely notice it once applied to your hands. I really like how this doesn't feel greasy like some hand creams do once applied.

This hand cream is very nourishing on my dry hands. I used this up over the course of a week. My hands have always been sensitive and dry and I really notice a difference in their softness and texture.

I will probably repurchase this cream at some point when I can afford too.

Nourishing Niceness

lovely hand cream, very nourishing with a pleasant smell that was not over powering. The tube is simple and cute. The Cream itself is thick and so you only need a small amount, which can make this more affordable, however I feel there are other hand creams which give a similar result for less $$.

Long Lasting Moisturising Hand Cream

My impressions of this hand cream were that it was luxurious, high quality and expensive.

The hand cream is very moisturising and long lasting in its moisture giving. A lot of hand creams I've encountered don't give a long lasting mositurising feel and need to be reapplied regularly. This one lasts which is good considering the price difference.

The price would be the thing I struggled most with for this hand cream. As a gift it is a wonderful hand cream, but I don't know if I could always justify buying it for myself.

The tube was also interesting. I'm really not a fan of these no frills tubes, I like something more elegant looking and I think L'Occitane could have done a lot more presentation wise.

So all in all a beautiful hand cream.

Instant moisture!

Up until a month or 2 ago I had never heard of this brand. Now it's like why has no one told me I needed it!

My first try was a deluxe sample size of the hand cream that came free with a magazine. Then and there it was instant love and first feel. I have now brought the large tube of this.

The tube is simple and elegant. No frills kind of deal. The cream inside it really thick. You only need a pea size! I have really dry hands and they react to fragrance. I struggle finding a hand cream that can throw mega amounts of moisture in without the greasy feel. Well I have now. My hands feel smooth and look less old when I use this. The gorgeous soft feel lasts for hours. The fragrance is a soft smell. I think it's the Shea I can smell. It's not offensive or floral so 2 ticks for that.

Yes it's very pricy for a large tube, but you only need a small amount. The 2 deluxe sizes has last ages even sharing them around for friends to use.

Magic Mitts

Beautiful, rich and silky - this hand cream glides on like a dream and moisturises skin really well.

L'Occintane Shea Butter is a great product, it feels lovely and luxurious, it has a neutralish scent, and the tube is nice and compact so is easy to pop into a hand bag.

Only downer is that it is an expensive product - definitely a splurge/treat item!

Pricey but worth it!

I was really skeptical about this hand cream as it is very pricey and I have heard mixed things about it. I went into my local L'Occitane and tried the tester then went for a wander around the mall for a couple of hours by the time I was ready to leave my hands still felt great after I had washed them a couple of times tried on shoes etc etc so I went back to get a tube. It is quite concentrated so you don't need much. It smells great, its nice that its not too over-powering which I really like especially with the job I do, my hands are close to peoples face a lot and you don't want the scent to be too offensive. I use this as an over night cuticle cream also and it works great. My partner is a laborer so his hands get a hard time and it is the only cream he has tried that works. Even buy a small tube to give it a go, once you've tried its a must have!

TJ's tips

It feels pretty good on your hands but I find it a heavy cream and the effects of the hand cream don't seem to last that long. Has a nice aroma but feels quite greasy on

Tips: Best a night as it's quite greasy

great product

I know it seems a lot to pay for hand cream, but you will not be disappointed. This tube lasts a long time and it is a great product. I get dry hands over winter and this is my go to hand cream.

Tips: great size to carry in your bag and the packaging doesn't leak or get damaged. I carry one in my bag all year round.
