Fabulous Hand Cream
Often found in boutiques, this particular brand of hand cream is unsurpassed in quality; I always have a tube of this brand in my purse.The scents are pleasant, not overpowering and on-point; lavender smells like lavender, sandalwood like sandalwood, even lilikoi smells like passion fruit.Cream applies easily, although at first glance it appears to be greasy/waxy. That is not the case as the cream absorbs easily into the skin and does not leave a greasy residue. Long lasting, it doesn’t feel heavy or the need to, as with some hand creams to wipe off excess with a tissue.Yes, this brand may be more expensive than other hand creams, yet worth every penny as it works as advertised and through the years, remains a high quality product.Highly recommend, will purchase again!

Gardenia and Rose🌹
I mainly bought for the better ingredients! I’m an avid label-reader and this doesn’t have the toxic chemicals that most commercialized products have. Small tube, yes- but not a shocker since it tells you the amount in the description. Plus, I don’t mind paying more as long as it’s good quality (and the French are known for this).This definitely feels like a luxury hand cream. You can visually see a softening of your skin right away.I ordered two: Gardenia & Rose. Gardenia was too strong for me. Initially smells of the floral, then dries to a powdery finish. If that’s what you’re going for, you might like this scent. If you’re sensitive to smells/fragrances like me, you might get an instant headache with sinus irritation. Rose scents can be very touchy sometimes, and I was afraid it might be musky or give old-lady vibes. Not the case, thankfully! The scent is very feminine. It is noticeable, but subtle. It goes on and finishes the same. I have a pretty keen sense of smell, but realize it’s all individual preference, as well as people’s individual body chemicals, that either make or break a fragrance. For me, I returned Gardenia and kept the Rose.Next on my list is to try White Grapefruit and Fresh Rain. It’s portable and pretty; toss one in your purse, on your night stand, in your car, in your office desk, etc.

simply wonderful!
I absolutely love this scent, and the lotion doesn’t leave your hands sticky, which is super nice. My only complaint is that I wish they sold it in a larger bottle for my guest bathroom. This is a new staple.

Just not moisturizing
Smells good and it’s the right thick creamy texture you would expect for a hand cream. Doesn’t leave a greasy after feel. The only reason for the 3 star review is that it’s not moisturizing. We’ve used it for about a month now and it hasn’t made our hands any better. We always have to use something else to supplement.
