The Aromatherapy Co Hand Cream Review

This is a creamy smooth product that soaked in brilliantly in seconds, which is one of my main criteria when buying hand cream. The formula is quite thick and a little goes a long way. The fragrance is lovely, refreshing and not overpowering with undertones of fruit and herbs. I liked the fact that the product is in a tube as its easy to squeeze out the correct amount and its not too large a tube to carry around. Although not classed as a cuticle treatment after rubbing this in my cuticles have improved in softness and my nails have a sheen which looks as if I've had a manicure. I have also used this as an overnight treatment under cotton gloves and my hands felt incredibly soft the next morning.

I am very particular when it comes to certain hand creams and I found this one to be great.

The smell is amazing, very summery and sweet, the cream isn't greasy or oily and absorbs well into your skin.

Even though you do not need to use too much, it is a bit of a luxury item as it is a bit overpriced. Other then that being the only downfall I do love this product!

Packaging is plain enough to be attractive, gives it that green feel and look to it. It's an easy to use tube that has a nice screw top lid so nice and secure for the handbag. The scent is a very strong lavender but it doesn't linger. The cream itself is thick white and oily and easy to squeeze out and apply, only a small amount is needed as its easy to rub around. I get cracks and ingrained muck in my hands and this cream also seams to lift this away with a little bit of extra rubbing around. So for me as a cleanser and a moisturiser it's doing a awesome job and its soothing. I find I do have to wipe off any excess so waste not my arms usually cop the residue. My skin likes this cream and is getting softer, I like to put in on when I'm sitting around so it gets a good chance to soak in. I'd say value for money.

I have recently been given a tube of hand cream (cocoa and vanilla) which is now the second tube of The Aromatherapy hand cream I have tried, and once again I am not disappointed. The packaging is simple with a sturdy screw top which would not leak (a little too large for me for a handbag). The fragrances are very light but both are outstanding! The actual hand cream is easy to apply (not thick and does not leave a sticky feeling). It is readily absorbed leaving the hands really soft and silky. Even after washing your hand still feel gorgeous and soft. I realise it is fairly pricey but the product is extremely good and a little bit of a luxury. To be honest I would find it expensive to use on a daily basis as I reapply hand cream frequently, but it is beautiful!

I am really fussy when it comes to hand cream as I hate my hands feeling all greasy like I have just applied sunblock and the fragrance stays with you for a while, BUT I was happy with this hand cream as soon as I took the lid off. The fragrance was beautiful and as I applied it o my hands it felt lovely and smooth (no yucky gritty bits) and soaked into my hands reasonably fast. The fragrance was so lovely that I really enjoyed it saying on my hands as I went on with my day. This is lovely and moisturising for my hands as I spend most of my time washing them with soap in my job which dries out my hands and this has really helped me to keep my hands feeling soft and smooth.

I'm a huge fan of The Aromatherapy Co products and absolutely loved every range from the company. I've recently came across this beautiful divine hand cream - Lavender and Wild Chamomile - the gorgeous smell makes it almost addictive to apply and the consistency of the cream was brilliant (not too sticky) and keeps my hands moisturized all day long. It's made of 100% essential oils -that's a bonus!!!

I also love the pretty packaging from The Aromatherapy and the size of this tube have lasted me for a good three months. That's not bad at all for only $17.95

This handcream is to die for! Everything about this made me happy... the smell was good, the texture was smooth and i loved the tube it came in! This lasted me for a very long time so I would definitely recommend it to you to try!

I usually don't spend a lot on hand creams so was looking forward to trying this product. I had seen it in a department store and knew that it was a lot more than I would usually pay. I liked the plain packaging - and the 'green' claims of using natural ingredients, no animal testing, recyclable and made in NZ (buying local). The tube has a great screw lid so I was confident in throwing it into my handbag or keeping it in the car. The cream was a nice consistency - not too thin, thick or greasy. It spread really well onto my skin and a little went a long way. I mostly put the cream on the tops of my hands and only rubbed the residue into my palms and I could feel the oils working. I have some cracked skin from eczema and sometimes other creams will sting a bit, but this cream didn't sting at all, in fact it soothed my hands really well. The fragrance was strong at first but was lovely, I kept inhaling the lovely smell. The cream absorbed really well into my skin and my hands felt soft all day, even after washing them It was lovely to put it on again before bedtime and go to sleep with the calming scent.

I like, to start, that the hand cream is not tested on animals and is made in New Zealand. It is a thick white cream and smells oh so of lavender. It gives your hands instant hydration without being oily. If you have any cracks in your skin it does not sting. If you have any dirt on your hands it does lift this off. I have a dry skin and also eczema and this was very soothing on my hands. Yes I like this hand cream very much and would most certainly buy this to indulge in some loving luxury for my hands.
