Alpine Silk Lanolin Reviving Hand & Nail Crème Reviews

This is a really good hand cream and has helped to stop dryness on my hands. My hands have been in need of a rich and nourishing hand cream over this cold winter. This hand cream really has made a difference. My hands are softer and hydrated.

This hand cream is nice and not too thick or sticky at all. It goes on smoothly and soaks into skin quickly. Like their other products it has a subtle scent but I find once rubbed in this is hardly noticable (and I don't like scented hand creams and this one I do like!) It leaves my hands feeling nourished and soft especially in a cold and dry winter. A little goes a long way in my opinion. It is easy to get out of the tube and hand size for in the handbag.

This hand cream is lovely. Leaves hand so soft without the sticky residue that comes with some lesser hand creams. My nails feel stronger after using this for a week, too! It's scent is light and quite sweet. I love a nicely scented hand cream, a range with a few options and so probably wouldn't use again. But it would be great if you're not bothered on scent, as this hand cream definitely does what it says it will.

I really struggled with this hand cream because of it's very overpowering scent. It is very floral and the scent lingers a long time after application.

It's a shame as I was so excited to try this due to having really dry hands at the moment due to Christchurch's cold winter.

The moisturiser its self is a thinner consistency that is absorbed in quickly. The type of hand cream you chuck in your handbag to use on the go. My hands did feel nice and soft after using this product.

The packaging is a good size and the sheep on the front is cute or weird depending on your personality.

I won't be using this one again but my workmate is happy to have had it donated to her.

Great hand cream to gift to a friend overseas or for visitors to New Zealand. This hand cream looks as if it has been designed for the tourism market with the sheep and mountains on the tube. Because of the packaging, I would never normally pick this product up but I have really enjoyed this hand cream.

This hand cream contains lanolin as well as vitamin e to boost skin softness and hydration. Which is certainly does.

The smell is quite strong and perfumy, not bad but not the scent I would normally go for. After a few days of use I got used to this scent and now quite like it.

My hands feel very soft after using this cream and stay that way for ages. Over winter I find that my hands are normally very dry. Mild winter or great cream, who knows, but one thing is for sure I don't have the scaly dry hands I normally do at this time of year!

I would recommend this product for anyone looking for a hand cream.

This is a nice simple hand cream with a pleasant scent that absorbs easily and doesn’t give your hands that greasy feeling you sometimes get with hand creams. Comes in a nice sized tube and is easy to apply. I don’t have particularly dry hands but it has dealt well to the winter dryness that I get. I would say for very dry hands you would want something a bit thicker and richer, or to apply more than daily.

This Alpine Silk hand and nail creme is your average nana moisturiser. The dated packaging, a white plastic tube with a tacky image of a sheep, is enough to put you to sleep. It is an inexpensive product, does it’s job, but wool (!) not excite the senses. Very commercial smelling. It is a decent moisturiser, for sure, but you won’t “have a field-day” using it. Sorry- the puns are the most exciting part of this. I didn’t notice any significant change in the condition of my hands or nails.

Firstly we'll start with the packaging, a simple squeezy tube which you'll commonly find your hand creams in, practical and easy to use. The graphics though, like the face cream, scream more souvenir and less bathroom/handbag staple.

The cream itself is a medium consistency, not super runny but not too thick either, it absorbed into my hands quickly. Im a barista so my hands do get thrashed at work and are often dry, this done a good enough job at keeping them hydrated.

A downfall of this cream in my opinion is the fragrance, it has a very heavy floral scent. While I don't mind a bit of fragrance in my hand cremes, I did not like the floral smell.

This is not an item I would purchase again for myself, however it is the kind of item I may consider as a gift (probably for a non-Kiwi!)

I enjoyed the fragrance of this hand cream, it was a bit floral to me but not overpowering. It was nice and thick and went on my hands easily, however it seems to disappear pretty quickly compared to my usual hand cream. It did not have any lasting effects unfortunately.q
