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 is the best hand cream ever made for my intensely dry, eczema-prone, crazily sensitive hands. Need I say more?

I got a sample of this from Sephora and used it three days in a row, day and night. While it is very rich, creamy, and moisturizing, it has a tendency to stay above the skin rather than get...

I've been looking for a hand cream that moisturises and yet dries quickly, and although L'Occitane's handcream fulfils the former, it fails terribly on the latter. The constituency is very thick...

I love this hand cream! My hands feel so soft, smooth, and moist after massaging this into the skin. I guess the smell is a "love it or hate it" thing, and I'm in the "love it" camp. After...

This is a very nice hand cream, though I'm not wild about the price or the off-putting baby-wipe smell. It absorbs quickly and leaves my hands soft and un-greasy. It's also been wonderful on my...

As with the 100% Shea Butter, the price is outrageous, but the product is so worth it. This hand lotion is much more conveniently packaged than the 100%. It goes everywhere with me. There is a...

LOVE this product! It's so rich and moisturising, works wonders for restoring hands to baby-soft and smooth texture. However, the thick consistency takes a little getting used to, and you gotta...

I got a free sample of this stuff from Sephora. It smells SERIOUSLY of baby butt wipes, and though I enjoy the smale, it's way too intense for me. The consistensy is thick and kind of has a whipped...

My HG hand cream. It is the best hand cream I have found; it leaves my hands feeling really soft, supple, and moisturized without that yucky greasy feel. I love that it comes out thick instead of...

Great product! Leaves my hands so soft. It is a little greasy initially so I use it at night to give it time to absorb.

I really love this hand creme, but, lets face it, I'm cheap. And $21 for 5.2 oz, just doesn't do it for me. As a creme, it feels great on the hands, after it is absorbed in to the skin. The...
