My poor hands have really suffered since I had my baby back in November; constantly washing my hands and cleaning everywhere with anti-bacterial spray has made them so dry. I have been getting through so many hand creams it’s unreal. This one from Conscious Skincare is awesome.
It’s made entirely with natural ingredients: organic avocado oil, organic shea butter, beeswax, organic evening primrose oil, pomelo seed extract, organic lavender oil and organic geranium oil. It’s free from SLS, phtalates, parabens, synthetic preservatives, colour and perfume.
This hand cream has the texture of a thick whipped mousse and has a wonderful natural scent, it mostly smells of geranium (one of my favourite smells) but it’s not in-your-face or headache-inducing. You only need a teeny tiny dab to totally moisturise your hands. A little bit goes a really long way. It sinks in nicely with no greasy feeling, which is important for me as I almost always need to pick up my baby or his toys or something.
At £14.99 for 50g it’s quite expensive compared to other hand creams however it lasts so much longer as you only need to use a very small amount. And it really works; it’s improved the appearance of my hands so much. You can buy it here: http://www.conscious-skincare.com/product/388/soothing-hand-cream-for-hard-working-hands
Love the rose-like scent of geranium essential oil in a handcream too:-)
ReplyDeleteNice, ethical product!
It's a lovely scent! xx
DeleteOo wow this hand cream is so different from any i've used before. It sounds nice! I like that it is made of natural ingredients. I don't know if I can bring myself to spend that much on a hand cream, though. Ah decisions decisions

Thank you! xx
DeleteLove that this is natural, makes it even more better. I know about the cleaning and the hands getting dried out. It's always better when a little goes a long way, makes the price tag more justifiable to me lo xo
