I got this hand cream in one of the beauty vaults. I love trying out new creams and as this one is quite expensive, it was something I was looking forward to trying out.
This comes in a simple white tube with not a hug amount going on with the lettering. It looks quite clean and is easy to see whats going on. This is a pretty decent size for a handcream, 100grams.
The actual cream is white and quite thick. It has a pleasant scent which I can only describe as just smelling like lotion. It's not too overwhelming. I only use a small amount, like a baby pea size. It rubs in very easily and absorbs quite quickly too. My hands are left feeling velvety not greasy. I don't feel massive hydration though, I do have quite dry skin and I just don't feel like this gives all of the moisture that I desire. If you had more normal skin or maybe even oily, this might be a really good cream for you. I doubt that I'd buy this at fullprice but if it was in a giftpack or something, I'd use it again.
I received this in the We Love Nails Best Beauty Box Ever. I was into collecting hand creams at the time and this helped persuade me into purchasing the box. This hand cream comes in a nice 100ml sized tube, not bad since a lot of other handcreams are more purse sized. The neutral white design of the tube makes it look good in on any bathroom, bedroom or desk setting. The scent is a neutral pleasant fresh one. The best thing about this hand cream is that it absorbs really fast making it convenient and one you'll have the time to reach for. The ingredients are water, aloe juice, glycol stearate, mineral oil, stearic acid, cetyl stearyl alcohol, isopropyl myristate, glyceryl stearate SE, dimethicone, glycerin, propylene glycol, ceteareth-20, ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate, phenoxyethanol, caprylyl glycol, thriethanolamine, parfum (benzyl salicylate, lilial, hexyl cinamal, limonene, linalool), vitamin B5, elastin, diazolidinyl urea, vitamin E, vitamin A and CI 17200. The cons for me about this handcream are than it did nothing for my nails and cuticles. Secondly, I have really dry hands so I need to reapply this handcream after an hour because of that I used up the large tube in two months. Usually a tube of handcream that's that size lasts me for like three or four months with regular applications. And lastly the price, given the list of the ingredients you'd find that in a handcream that costs much less and I have used more affordable handcreams that have done a better job of keeping my hands moisturized. So I won't be repurchasing this.
Tips: If you have really dry hands I would recommend you have other hand creams on hand to use as this one might not provide enough moisture.
