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.

I bought this product after a sales associate at C.O. Bigelow told me it was the best lotion for the dry patches on my hands this winter. Shea butter is definitely the ingredient that makes this...

I hate this lotion! It made my hands greasy and slippery (like all L'Occitane products). THe tube is like impossible to use. It gets all messed up and then you can't squeeze anymore creme out. God!...

The good side of this creme is that it comes in a purse sized tube for only $8 and has a pleasant, milky scent. However, the reason why I only gave this a three is that it takes awhile to soak into...

I'm sorry to say that this hand cream didn't do much to relieve my very dry hands. It is non-greasy and the huge tube lasts a long time. It just doesn't relieve my hands when they get chapped...

I dunno... maybe I am allergic to shea butter? Maybe my hands weren't dry enough to need shea butter? I used this a couple of days in a row. It was slow to absorb, but when it did, my hands felt...

This hand cream is not as effective as I had hoped. I find that this hand cream moisturizes well at first, but it doesn't keep my hands soft over the long haul. If I apply more, then it just gets...

Very effective hand cream..the shea butter is very moisturizing and soothing. The packaging tends to split though and causes the lotion to ooze out..BUT I would buy it again.

I was able to pick up a small tube of this at Sephora -- very handy to carry around in my purse! This is a very good hand cream, non-greasy, absorbs quickly, and the scent is not too overpowering.
