5.0 out of 5 stars L'Occitane - shea butter hand cream trio, January 2, 2006

I've always loved L'Occitane products, but I couldn't figure out how to share my love without breaking the bank. I bought the trio and dispersed them for Christmas presents so my family could experience them too. They loved them!

5.0 out of 5 stars The BEST for my hands!, December 8, 2007

By 

Phoebe Oh (central Illinois) - See all my reviews

This review is from: L’Occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream Trio (Health and Beauty)

My hands had gotten so rough and became painfully cracked around the knuckles from frequent hand washing and hand sanitizing, but this really softened and healed my skin. It absorbs really well and has a pleasant scent. (I liked it so much I bought a bunch of the little tubes to give as gifts at work.)
This works better than anything else I've tried, and I've tried Neutrogena Norwegian formula, Vaseline Intensive Care, Jergens, Curel, Lubriderm, Eucerin, Aveeno and other common brands.

Pros of the L'Occitane cream:
1. Moisturizes super effectively.
2. Absorbs well without lots of greasiness.
3. Fragrance pleasant and not too strong.
Cons:
1. Price.
2. Lack of UV protection.

The only other hand cream that worked about as well was Ahava (but Ahava is also kind of expensive).

Cheaper alternatives (not quite as effective, but still quite good): Eucerin Calming Creme (which is fragrance free and comes in a nice, large tube) is pretty rich, and Neutrogena Norwegian Formula or Norwegian Formula FAST ABSORBING Hand Cream.

But if you can afford the L'Occitane, then get it.
(I use it in winter when the heat sucks the moisture out of everything, and use the less expensive stuff or stuff with SPF 15 in summer when it's more humid and I'm outdoors.)

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice for a gift-and for yourself, November 2, 2008

I purchased this on a whim with a gift cerfificate. I'm glad I did. This is perfect to keep in your purse or in your desk at work. I'm a teacher and my co-workers and students are always asking to borrow this. So, I'm gving these out as gifts for the holidays. (and by the way, the boys like this as much as the girls). My skin is not very dry, but frequent hand-washing dries them out. This doesn't absorb quickly, so don't use too much. A little goes a long way. My friend has very dry skin and says this shea butter cream and lotion is the only product that relieves dryness and itching. Worth the money.
