Hi lovelies! Today I have something a little different for you. As some
of you may have seen on Twitter, I am honored to be a part of an amazing
group of ladies called Bloggers Who Bless or #BWB. To find out exactly
what #BWB is about you can check us out HERE and while you're there, go
have look around the site! The posts are always honest and helpful so
it's definitely worth a read. Now and then I will be reviewing products
for #BWB and it may not always be nail polish, nail art or hand care
related but I will always try and make it as informative and
entertaining as possible. So let's get on to my very first review...
After the first #BWB meet up in Cape Town, I got sent an AMAZING goodie
bag which contained 2 gorgeous tubes of Crabtree & Evelyn
Ultra-Moisturising Hand Therapy (Iris and Lavender). I'll admit, this
was the first time I've heard of the brand but that is because I have
been sleeping under a non-beauty-related rock for the past 24 years!
After stalking the internet and the Crabtree & Evelyn website, I was
ready to test this product and man, I was not disappointed!
First off, let's talk about the packaging. Crabtree & Evelyn
Ultra-Moisturizing Hand Therapy comes in a beautiful tube that reminds
me of all those little paint tubes that you always see in art supply
stores and want to buy, even though you have no idea what you are
actually going to do with it! This immediately had me feeling all giddy
and excited because yes, I am that easily excited. It's the small things
in life people!
The actual cream had a bit of a buttery feel to it when I first rubbed
it between my fingers which had me a little worried as I don't like to
use heavy greasy products on my hands during the day but this worry went
away very quickly! After I rubbed the cream in, my hands felt soft,
moisturized, smelled divine and absorbed into my skin with no effort!
I'll admit, I fell pretty hard for this product because it's truly
amazing. In fact, it now is the cream I use before I take my nail art
photos for the blog because it makes my hands look so moisturized
without looking oily. Out of the 2 scents I received, I preferred the
Iris but that's only because I've never been a fan of Lavender scented
products. The only downfall about this cream is the price tag. It is
quite a bit more expensive than the average hand cream on the market but
that being said, it isn't an average hand cream! At the moment I'm actually planning
the heist I'm going to pull when this cream is finished because I
want...no, NEED a lifetime supply of it!
You can keep up with Crabtree & Evelyn via Twitter, Facebook and also remember to go check out their website.
Lots of mad love...
My favorite hand cream is the Rose Water Scent from Crabtree & Evelyn!
