MOR Handcream Review

I got the Marshmallow hand cream in a goodie bag and it's my favourite hand cream ever! Firstly the packaging is just gorgeous, like all the MOR products. The pale pink tube, gold lid and logo give it a real vintage glam feel. I have mine displayed on my dressing table with my perfume bottles. The next thing I noticed was the scent. Marshmallow isn't as sugary as you would expect from the name, it's actually quite smoky and sophisticated and very heavy. Using a bit on your hands is enough for people to smell it and compliment you on your perfume! The thing that makes me want to buy this again once it's run out is the consistency. It's nice and thick but not at all greasy and makes your hands feel really soft and lovely for hours. My hands feel better after using MOR than any other hand cream I've tried. I would definitely recommend this as a lovely, luxury product for a good price.

I am hand cream obsessed, it is a must in my handbag at all times. The thing about the MOR hand creams are that they look luxurious, they have a gold cap! They also come in a array of scents - the two I have on my desk now are Snow Gardenia and Marshmallow - Snow Gardenia has to be my fave (smells like sweet jasmine tea). It is probably personal preference but I will recommend steering clear of Lychee, it is seriously sweet and in your face, someone commented that it smelt like they had just walked past the Lush store...

One thing I find with these hand creams are that they are not overly moisturising. The texture is quite thick and rich not greasy though but I don't find my hands are any softer after use. I apply it all day long but I still find myself reaching for my OPI avojuice (which make my hands feel so soft). Maybe I've become immune to it since I use it so often!

Anyways, nice to have when you want a bit of luxury and they do smell very nice. They also make very smart gifts, MOR packages them beautifully with their other products as well otherwise you can get a box set of hand creams.

I was sure I'd tried this at a Sephora when I was overseas - I remember the sample I tried as smelling AMAZING and feeling better than any other hand lotion I'd ever tried. I've been kicking myself for not buying it or taking a photo of it so I could remember the brand!

When I saw the MOR Marshmallow on sale at an online shop I was sure that it was what I'd sampled - I bought it.

It's not what I remember the smell being like (however, I might have just romanticized this lotion so much over the months that I don't actually remember what the scent was *lol*) BUT I do really like the scent of the lotion I bought. It's more of a rose scent to me, but not a cloying rose scent. It is VERY strongly scented, so be warned of that - honestly a little goes a very long way. The good news is that it also only takes a little to make your hands feel very nice :)

The texture is really great - it isn't tacky or chalky like a lot of hand lotion- your hands feel great for hours and hours after you use it and the container is super pretty too!

I got a sample of five different fragrances in this range from my Her Fashion Box subscription and a couple of the frangrances are just amazing! I really like this formula, it is quite creamy but not greasy- it makes my hands feel like satin and it is a product that absorbs well.

The fragrances I have tried and what I think about is below:

Basil and Grape- steer clear, this one made me feel quite ill. It is relatively strong. I had the sachet open on my bedside table and had to move it when I was in my bed because I just couldn't handle the smell

Honey Nectar- this one is okay, good if you like a honey scent (obviously :P). Its not too strong, not my favourite though

Blackcurrent and Iris- Really like this one! Its more fruity than floral. Not an overbearing frangrance, quite fresh

Sugar Rose Tiger Lily- also really nice

Above everything though, I just really love the formula of these products and how they make my hands feel

so this is rather expensive as you buy from boutique stores but wow it smells gorgeous!! and feels so soft. although i feel it takes a little while to dry but soo yummy <3

This handcream smells devine! Also it moisturises my hands & keeps them soft. It obsorbs well into my hands so they are not left feeling oily.

I really love MOR handcreams - they smell divine and the tubes are so gorgeous. The only downside is that they are quite expensive and you can only find them in certain boutique stores (I buy mine from Redcurrant). They moisturise really well and I find that they do make my palms a lot softer when they are particularly dry. The only thing is that your hands can feel a bot greasy, so you need to rub the cream in well and let your hands air dry a bot after using. Also, considering the thickness of the cream, only squeeze out a small amount - a little goes a long way with this cream!

I absolutely love this product! My skin can be quite sensitive to different moisturizers, but as MOR handcream is sulfate and paraben free it is no worries at all! Above all, it is the most gorgeous smelling hand softening cream I have used to date!

Rich and luscious, I find it to be over scented and takes a long time to cool down. Great in winter due to it being a thicker and denser consistency, could not recommend it in summer it would sit on your skin for too long and leave a greasy residue.

I was given one of these hand creams in Blaxkcurrent and Iris in a pamper pack for Xmas. I've never been a huge fan of hand creams as I don't like having a greasy left over feeling, and unfortunately this one is the same. I found it takes quite a bit if rubbing in and still leaves my hands feeling a bit oily. However I have seen results, with my hands feeling softer esp in between my fingers and on the balls of my palms. Also the smell is delightful!! Slightly fruity rather than flowery, and is quite strong (which is a plus for me, but might not be for everyone!). Consistency wise it's thick, cool and spreads easy, so one tube will last you ages.

Overall I would consider buying this again for a winter time at night hand cream, but would consider others more suited to my tastes for daily use.
