The Aromatherapy Co Hand Cream Review

I have OCD when it comes to hand cream. I use it constantly - this was great but the smell was a little to strong for me at the moment while I'm handling new borns.

I love this hand cream! I got it as a birthday treat from Farmer's and I just fell in love that I got another one for myself and a couple more as a gift to friends and family. The packaging is simple yet attractive. It's easy to carry around as it's not too big although a travel size would be handy too. The cream makes my hand soft and silky and the scent is divine. This is my new favorite thing. Seriously.

My first impression of the packaging for The Aromatherapy Co Lavender and Chamomile Handcream was that it was very basic and unappealing. The tube looked like it was an acrylic paint tube that an artist would use. However, I have since realised that the intention was that it was to give the appearance of being simple and possibly natural (but the tube is silver so I am not completely sure). I have found that it is important not to judge a book by its cover though, as I was very impressed by the hand cream itself. I am not overly keen on products that are lavender fragranced and although the initial smell of the handcream on application was very strong, I did like the smell and it became a very subtle scent quite quickly. I loved the rich and thick feel of the handcream on my hands and it really felt like it protected my hands and nourished them. I also liked the thought of the lavender and manuka for healing and preventing scarring. I would definitely buy the product myself, as well as buy it as a gift for someone else.

I have recently been given a tube of hand cream (cocoa and vanilla) which is now the second tube of The Aromatherapy hand cream I have tried, and once again I am not disappointed. The packaging is simple with a sturdy screw top which would not leak (a little too large for me for a handbag). The fragrances are very light but both are outstanding! The actual hand cream is easy to apply (not thick and does not leave a sticky feeling). It is readily absorbed leaving the hands really soft and silky. Even after washing your hand still feel gorgeous and soft. I realise it is fairly pricey but the product is extremely good and a little bit of a luxury. To be honest I would find it expensive to use on a daily basis as I reapply hand cream frequently, but it is beautiful!

I am very particular when it comes to certain hand creams and I found this one to be great.

The smell is amazing, very summery and sweet, the cream isn't greasy or oily and absorbs well into your skin.

Even though you do not need to use too much, it is a bit of a luxury item as it is a bit overpriced. Other then that being the only downfall I do love this product!

I have used these a few times and find them lovely. But the essential oils created a rash under my rings so i discontinued. But the lavender one is great for bedtime.

When I first discovered this product I was a little taken aback by the price. I tried it and just had to have it. Although the smell of thyme is a little overpowering, it makes your hand oh so smooth. Given how little you need to actually use, this cream is value for money.

Loved this hand cream. Was easily absorbed into the hands and made them feel, soft, smooth and smelt divine. Hands still felt quite smooth and soft at the end of a long day!Quite a thick hand cream so a little goes a long way so the tube will no doubt last a long time!

I have used this many time before and highly recommend - a spare is ALWAYS in my handbag!! Love the scent and texture... go on try it!

Orange and Jasmine is my favourite scent - subtle and beautiful. The hand cream leaves my hands feeling soft and supple without greasiness. Has a lovely thick texture.
