Hello beauties,
As you all know I am a hand cream fiend and today I have one beautiful offering from L’Occitane, Almond Delicious Hands Hand Cream.
This is a wonderfully hydrating hand cream with a base of sunflower oil, sweet almond oil, Shea butter and coconut oil as well as sweet almond protein that makes your skin feel silky soft without any grease (side note – if it does feel greasy, you have used WAY too much! You need the tiniest amount of this cream!) the scent is that of almond blossom which is beautifully warming and exotic. If you know the smell of the famous shower oil, this is exactly the same.
Almond Delicious Hands is a perfect hand cream for use during the day for me (I prefer the 20% Shea Butter Hand Cream at night) it’s light and without stickiness meaning you can pick your phone up straight after using it as I often do. I switch between this and Liz Earle Hand Repair as my day time creams they are my ultimate favourites and so pleasurable to use as well as functional.
This is a limited edition 150ml size I bought from QVCUK in a kit, it does retail at £30.00 individually so it’s not cheap! You can get a 75ml from L’Occitane directly which costs £16.50. I wouldn’t pay £30 for one hand cream to be honest with you, but as usual I got an excellent deal with the Q which saw another 150ml L’Occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream in and some minis for around £34.00. It is a luxury hand cream but I do think it is oh so worth it!
Till next time,
Lucy xxx
