My first reaction to this hand cream was “wow, this smells lush!”
The Body Shop Strawberry Hand Cream really does smell of strawberries and cream, absorbs easily into the skin and does not leave your hands feeling greasy. In fact, my hands smelt lovely and felt amazing at the same time.
On application it sat on my hands for just a whisker, then was utterly absorbed. I found I only needed a tiny little bit each time I used it (pea size on the fingertip before applying), so it will last a while. The texture is gorgeous.
It’s fantastic for protecting your hands from becoming dry and sore. Just massage a little into your hands each time before going out into the garden for example, and after washing, or indeed at any time, and as often as you want.
And what about for those little but extremely painful cracks on you thumbs around the nails during the autumn and winter? Lovely!
It is made with cold-pressed strawberry seed oil and Community Trade shea from Ghana, and of course the Body Shop is completely against all animal testing.
In a word – DELICIOUS!
