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 stuff is quite amazing, it absorbs quickly and leaves my hands feeling soft not greasy afterwards. Being a frequent hand washer, L’Occitane lasts through maybe 2 hand washes, it’s not that...

This hand cream smells great. I don't find it moisturizes very well though. In our harsh Canadian winter I need something that protect my hands better. I find this cream can get a big greasy. ...

Great for winter! Apply it before you sleep. Really moisture the hands and greatly reduce fine lines on it.

I would much rather shell out cash for the Aveda for a hand cream for my purse. This stuff feels good going on your hands . . . and then you need more 1/2 hour later.

This cream didn't do anything special for my hands besides sitting there on top of my skin. Actually, most products with a high content of shea butter don't agree with my skin (foot cream from the...

I got this free. I am not crazy about the smell. One day, I went to an African store and I bought tons of Shea butter for $2. Since then, for me in my mind, L'Occitane is ripe off. Anyways,...

I just bought a small travel-sized tube of this from Sephora for $8. I thought even if it wasn't the greatest, I could still keep it in my purse and eventually use it up. Well, I do like it! The...

Works better than most but still not moisturising enough as my hands are generally quite dry. You need quite a bit of it for it to work thoroughly but it does absorb very well. Wish the smell was a...

I agree with the "you didn't really pay that for a hand cream did you?" philosophy when it comes to this product but the way I look at it is this: your hands show your age and I want to stay as...

The only thing about this hand cream is that people look at me like I am insane when I tell them how much I pay for it. Whenever I am asked for lotion and I pull this out my purse, every single...

I have the driest hands on the planet and this works fairly good. My hands do not feel dry but still I don't feel they are totally moisturized. My nails look better after a few nights' uses though....

I love the scent. Reminds me of Floris "Bouvardia" eau to toilette. This is my HG hand and foot cream. There's nothing else like it. Price doesn't bother me... because it works!

Shea butter hand cream is very moisturizing and lasts for quite a while! I wash my hands many times throughout the days and this takes care of any dryness. And I love the scent! A definite repurchase!
