Alpine Silk Manuka Honey Moisturising & Repair Hand & Nail Crème Reviews

I have been using the Alpine Silk Manuka Honey moisturising and repair hand and nail creme for a week.

It comes in a tradition looking hand cream tube with a flip top lid. It's easy to tell what the main ingredient is as it features a yellow label with honey being drizzled over a honey comb. Alongside the main ingredient of honey it is also enriched with almond oil, keratin and vitamins A & E.  It has a beautiful light scent of almond oil and the creamy texture is surprisingly non greasy and dries very quickly which means I am more likely to reach for it when I'm in a hurry.

I found the cream very  moisturising on my dish pan hands. My hands normally have dry patches and cracks near the edge of my fingers and palms but this has helped heal and soften my hands.

Yes I recommend this hand cream.

Seriously I hate hand cream - I wish I could be one of those ladies that takes a tube of hand cream out her bag and elegantly massages it into her hands. But I hate sticky hands, I hate oily hands and I am very particular about how my hands smell. Apparently I have been like this since a baby.

So when I didn’t read the invite properly and found out I was getting a hand cream to try too I could hear the groan escape my soul. Too dramatic?

So the tube looks innocent enough. Yellow - my favourite colour. Proclaims New Zealand product - gotta be good right. Manuka Honey - great!

I go in with a small dot expecting all the horrors of creams before but there is none..... the cream is light, just enough oil to moisturise but it absorbs to a lovely feel. I feel like I can safely touch things without leaving visible fingerprints everywhere. And what is that smell? Marzipan? Honey? Who cares it smells yummy but natural and I find myself sniffing my hands from time to time and smiling.

Am I converted to hand creams? Not unless it is this one and ONLY this one!!!!!!!

This is probably THE best hand cream I've ever used!

It absorbs so quickly and doesn't leave a greasy film - there's no desire to wipe your hands on something else to get off the residue!

It makes my hands feel AMAZING instantly and ongoing through the day. It's not a cream I feel the need to reapply through the day, the hydration lasts.

I've noticed a discernible difference in how my hands look and feel.

The only downside is the fragrance which to me is more almonds rather than honey but hey I liked the results all the same!

I really liked this hand cream. I’ve been doing a bit of googling about Manuka honey and it’s magical properties so I’m excited that it has that in it.

It is a bit thin- a little squeeze and a lot comes out. But it absorbs beautifully and quickly which is great when you are busy and need to keep doing things. No greasy handprints left on surfaces or bits of fluff and hair sticking to your fingers.

It has a nice, fresh scent- you can smell the honey.

My hands feel silky smooth and soft and I have been using it a quite few times a day for at least a week. My cuticles and nails are looking fabulous, better than they have in a long time, so good in fact that I got my rings cleaned because I’m happy to have my fingers out on display and blinging- my hands were looking so great it made my rings look noticeably dull and dirty!

The packaging mentions anti-bacterial properties and I feel like it could be as everyone around me is getting sick but I am fine- I have been using it through out the day- almost like hand sanitizer so here’s hoping it’s because of the magical Manuka honey.

I will continue to use this as I love the results.

I have been using this hand creme for just over 1.5 weeks, during this time I applied the hand creme daily - every morning.

This creme slides on with ease and is very absorbent. My hands feel great. The creme is for nails/cuticles as well, my cuticles are definitely improving, it is just taking time.

During the first few hours of applying this creme, it feels like I have an invisible layer which is locking in the moisture to keep my hands soft and protected.

The aroma is just right, as it is not overpowering.

I have been using Alpine Silk Manuka Honey Moisturising & Repair Hand & Nail Creme for about a week now. I can see that my nails which used to be quite brittle, is now stronger. I can now grow my nails longer, which I couldn’t previously. I also noticed that my hands which started to have fine lines and dry, now look smoother and not so dry anymore. I’m glad I was chosen to be one of the trial team, because it works for me!

The hand creme comes in a squeeze tube with a gorgeous honey picture. The creme is a medium-light texture so be careful when squeezing!

The creme has a strong, rich honey scent and a slight stickiness on initial application; it definitely contains a decent quantity of manuka honey! The smell and stickiness reside after about 30 minutes leaving the moisturized feeling without any greasiness.

My hands are dry and have scrapes and burns so creme has definitely had a good challenge. I have been applying it before bed and once during the day and it seems to be aiding healing.

My hands feel softer and less dry and my nails feel stronger and less prone to breakage.

Great product, made my hands soft and moisturised, smooths out the look of my hands, even had the girls at work using it too, would definitely recommend.

A product that actually made a noticeable difference to the condition of my hands. The skin on my hands dries out easily and I get small cuts and wounds because of the dryness. After a few days of using this product my hands were less dusty looking and they stayed feeling moisturised for long periods. The abrasions were less and my nails were less prone to peeling away at the ends. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the slightly odd smell. I'm not sure what exactly, it just didn't smell like a hand cream should. Something that smelled sort of..Ripe or on its way to stagnant?? Thankfully, the smell dissipated after a time and didn't linger. I have a mutant sense of smell though so it probably wouldn't be a concern for most people. What matters is it does what it says it will. And the tube is large so it will last you a fair while.

Alpine Silk Manuka Honey Moisturising & Repair Hand & Nail Crème is enriched with Sweet Almond Oil, Keratin & Vitamin A & E to help protect & repair your skin.

The Crème is thick and hydrating. It definitely feels moisturizing on the hands. They instantly feel softer and smoother.

However, the first thing that I noticed was the scent of sweet almond oil, it's strong, but also mixed with other scents which muddies the scent.

I haven't seen a change in the cuticles or nails, but will comment below if I do notice a change after using the product for longer.

This does make for a nice gift set with other products in the range like the serum and comes in a standard inverted tube.
