description

This iconic cream is truly unmatched. Each tube is enriched with 20% Shea Butter, as well as a blend of almond, honey, and coconut oil for added nourishment. Jasmine and ylang-ylang means fans smell like heaven after. The cream itself is absorbed rapidly, leaving them feeling soft and cloud-smooth with no oily traces.

This hand cream is very smooth and has good moisturizing power. I love the smell and shea butter. The packaging is different. This isn't cheap - $20+ for a hand cream but it lasts a long time...

I think honestly this product gets such high reviews because people *always* equate high-end with high-quality (myself included!). Also, the shea butter component makes it seem like the perfect...

This does such a great job of moisturising very dry hands, but it's pretty greasy so I'd only recommend using it at night. Won't repurchase as it just isn't worth £15.

I like this product and the smell, but it is a bit too oily for me. I have to wait for a while for my skin to absorb the butter before I can type on the computer keyboard again. I would use it...

I've used two tubes of this hand cream. It's actaully more moisturising than other types of hand cream on my slightly dry skin. The moisturising effect lasts longer than other types, too. It's...

Ooo la la, I do like this hand cream! When I first used it, before it rubbed in completely, it felt greasy. The consistency is a bit thick. It takes a while (by a while, I mean longer than...

It smells like baby powder or my grandmother, I can't decide.In spite of that, an HG. A thick lotion that absorbs easily and is super-moisturizing. I do however severely dislike the packaging. ...
