Advantages: Moisturisation, Absorbency, Not greasy

Disadvantages: Price and Packaging

I have used Neutrogena facial moisturisers in the past and as I was wondering round Boots I decided to try a different hand cream to my usual Soap & Glory, I spotted a small trial size bottle at 99p and decided to give it a go.

Apparently Norwegian fishermen use it, so if their hands go under such harsh conditions then surely this would be good. I wasn't disappointed, it is a brillant hand cream and I also use it on my chapped elbows giving deep moisturisation.

I bought the non scented version after having a sniff at the scented. I don't particulary like the smell of the scented, it hasn't really been perfumed to smell beautiful but if it does the job then hey ho.

After my small tube at 99p, I bought a big tube of 50ml for £3.27 in Boots, it seems a bit pricey for the amount but it lasts me at least 2 months with 2 or 3 applications a day and I can guarantee it will moisturise my dry worn out hands and soften them.

The consistency of the white cream is fairly thick, so you only need a small bit, trust me, it really goes along way. It is quite easily absorbed and doesn't leave your hands greasy and needing washing. I usually use it on my hands overnight to give my hands an extra boost of nourishment with cotten gloves, my hands feel lovely and soft in the morning. Also it is great for other dry patches of skin around the body - elbows, feet etc.

I don't think Neutrogena isn't really advertised and I like that, it just relys on the sole quality of its products being passed on. I probably wouldn't have picked up if it hadn't been for the trial size pack at 99p, as the packaging is fairly unimpressive but it is what is inside that really counts.

I have eczema but the cream is dermatologically tested and I find it is really kind to my sensitive skin, it is not packed with hundreds of ingredients and I think it is definitely a winning formula!

My boyfriend also steals this because of the packaging, it isn't pink and he has nice smooth hands now, I really am impressed by this product. I would withput a doubt recommendbuying a trial size pack and see how you get on with it.

Summary: You won't regret it!
