125ml stand up tube. Same pale yellow shade with light rose pink detailing on package, matches the rest of the range. Herbal scent, reminds me of Essano products i have used. (Probably due to the Rosehip Oil ingredient?)
Quite a thick cream. Readily absorbed into my skin. Does have a slightly greasy residue i'm not keen on.
I use a lot of handcream. This isn't the best or the worst I have ever used. I wouldn't jump at repurchasing but i'm not opposed to picking it up if it was on sale.
I was my hands all day long at my job . I’ve only noticed this year my hand have become really dry . I’ve purchased lots of hand creams lately to try and battle this dry hand problem I have . I got mine in my beauty box I got in the last Beauty Vault .
Packaging is in a creamy tube nothing special at all . Consistency is creamy with an essential oil feel to my hands and nails . Scent reminds me of wild flowers with a whisper of citrus . Uplifting but not overpowering. Application is easy soaks into my dry hands . But in a hour or two my hands are back to being dry again .
My hands are really dry . I don’t think my skin suitable for this one . I did enjoy the short term feeling of hydrated hands . I think would suit someone with normal combination skin . I can’t see myself buying this.
When I first opened this, I fell in love with the smell because it smells so yummy. I can't quite put my finger on the scent, citrus of some kind perhaps. I was hoping that it would be a great product unfortunately not. But I always try to find a positive in a product first which you will see below.
Positives: Great price making it affordable for most people and you also get a big tube so it will last you awhile.
It doesn't make your hands/nails greasy which is great because I have been using it at work and I don't need greasy hands/fingers when I'm using computers etc.
Negatives: Sadly it does not feel hydrating on my hands or nails, I actually re-applied thinking I hadn't put enough on. But I had the same result after applying a second coat. My hands also did not feel soft either. I actually felt this cream gave me the opposite effect which is very strange.
Sadly not a product I could recommend to someone if they were looking for one that softens and hydrates.
I will say though that I have extremely dry skin so it may work for someone that doesn't have such thirsty skin and nails as I do.
This hand and nail cream comes in a large 125ml tube, affordable at $10.00. The cream is white and a thick creamy consistency, with a faint citrusy natural scent. Reading the back of the tube, there's a long list of nasties not in this cream and it contains natural ingredients such as shea butter, sweet almond oil, pro vitamin B5, mango seed butter, jojoba, avocado oil, rosehip, wheat germ, and the list goes on. Not tested on animals. I get excema on my hands and found that this cream does not sting my hands when applied, and is very hydrating for dry skin and cuticles. Needs to be rubbed in thoroughly as slightly greasy. I would recommend this cream if you want a really natural product to combat dryness and flaking skin, although the herby scent might not appeal to some.
Tips: Squeeze out a pea sized amount, massage into hands and nails.
