description

Enriched with shea butter and P.D.O. (Protected Designation of Origin) lavender essential oil from Haute-Provence, this smooth, light-textured cream gently helps to nourish the hands and leaves skin pleasantly scented. LAVENDER. Fields of blue gold lavender grow around Provence, their relaxing scent bursts into the air as you walk through them. One of the first flowers distilled by Olivier Baussan, the founder of L’OCCITANE, the range gives you many ways of bringing lavender into the home.

This is a light creme that I suppose only do the trick for people with less dry hands. The lavender smell is a little to strong in the begging, but it fades out nicely. I really like the fact that...

I received this as a gift. While I prefer it to the L'Occitane 20 percent Shea Butter lotion, I am still not crazy about it. It has kind of a "gel" feeling to it and does not feel soothing. I can...

This is way too expensive for what it does. I've tried C.O. Bigelow's Quince Hand Lotion and loved that for awhile, and thought I'd try something different. This L'Occitane lotion is a little too...

This is a good, light hand cream for when a thicker one might be too heavy. It smells very nice, and absorbs well. It's great to use with another hand cream, for a lighter result but I wouldn't...

Elegant lavender smell and elegant texture. I wanted to like this so bad. Despite these good attributes, this hand cream was not as rich as I would have liked and was not effective for me. I...

I got a little tube of this while shopping for family, and am so glad I did! As other reviewers noted, it's thick without being oily, moisturizes well, and has a delicious lavender scent. It's...

I cannot believe I've never tried this before. Oh my god, it's so light and easily absorbed, without compromising on the fragrance. I have the 30ml travel-size and I'm already looking forward to...

I'm a compulsive hand moisturizer - I keep a tube next to my bed and also in my bag because my hands are rather dry. This is my favourite hand cream of all time, because it absorbs so very quickly...

Smells really good (if you like lavender, of course!), but I agree it's kind of strong - everybody in the room will notice it. It's very lightweight and maybe because of that, it didn't moisturize...

A nicely formulated non-greasy hand cream with Shea Butter, BUT I can't take the overwhelming Lavender. I'll stick with the original non-scented version.
