I don’t know what it is with me and hand creams. They seem to attract me so easily. I mean, I’ve only got two hands but tubes and tubes of creams which I’ll never be able to finish (simply because I know I’ll keep buying more). As I was wiping down the dresser, and doing a bit of spring-cleaning, I came across these hand creams (most of them unused). Seriously, it’s telling me to stop buying any more.
Aesop Resurrection Aromatique Hand Balm Tube – some restaurants in Melbourne stock this, together with its handwash, in their restrooms. I tried this out at one, and absolutely love it. This has a permanent spot on my nightstand.
Yuva Intensive Hand and Nail Cream – a free gift from a facial I had at Pure Indulgence.
L’occitane Cherry Blossom Petal-soft Hand Cream
Aveeno Intense Relief Hand Cream
Crabtree & Evelyn’s Hand Therapy in Lavendar (x2), Rosewater, La Source and Gardeners. The small tubes were gifts. I really like the Gardeners Hand Therapy; it’s even great on cracked heels.
Burt’s Bees Hand Creme in Beeswax and Banana
L’occitane hand creams in Shea and Cherry Blossom
Are you a hand cream junkie too? What’s your favourite?
That’s a lot of hand creams! I can understand the addiction. Albeit mine’s with gel eyeliners 😀 I ought to use more hand cream (Dr recommends) but I don’t. should make it a habit. *sighs*
I tend to “forget” to use handcreams. I like the C&E Gardener’s Hand Therapy too. I think I’d use hand creams more if I can find a good unfragranced one 🙂 btw that’s a LOT of creams
Hehehe, I love hand creams too. I have a Lime & Eucalyptus one from Crabtree & Evelyn Distillations, as well as the Hand Therapy in Summer Hill. From L’Occitane I have small tubes of both the Cherry Blossom hand lotion (x2) and the Verbena, and I have a set of three balms from the Etsy seller littleflowers. I also have under my bedside table, one set of C&E 60 seconds mini hand therapy set as well as 4 full tubes of the Hand Therapy in La Source, Gardener’s and Summer Hill (these make my favorite presents to supervisors so I stock up whenever they’re on sale for $7) and a big tube of L’Occitane’s Cherry Blossom petal soft hand cream.
I am the laziest when it comes to hand creams! So i never finish any of those that I have 🙁 lucky you, I always ended up washing my hands just minutes after I applied hand cream 🙁
I have lots of hand cream too but not as much as you have 😉 C&E, L’oocitane, Boots No 7, etc….and like you, I can’t seem to stop getting more. But lately, I managed to make myself use up some of my hand creams and bath/body products before opening new ones from my stash. So no buying anything new for now.
And wow! Some restaurants actually have Aesop hand cream in their restrooms. I think in KL, it would have been long gone. 😉
i like Crabtree & Evelyn, L’ocitane too, i also have too many handcreams. 😀 lately i’ve liked the stuff i got fr korea as well, fr innisfree and hanskin. 😀
You must try Jurlique hand creams, they smell great and are really moisturising.
Wow that’s alot of hand creams!! Seeing your pictures reminds me how much i longed for the L’Occitane cherry blossom and the C&E Rosewater hand creams!! MUST RESIST until i finish both current tubes i have now!! 😀
I used to be a handcream junkie but I stopped buying hand creams for quite a long time already. Now only use the Lavera one when I’m out and when I’m at home, it’s the steam cream. Not sure if the addiction will come back anytime soon…
Wow, that’s a lot of hand creams! I wash my hands like 30 times a day so a hand cream is a must for me or my skin would get very dry and chapped. I don’t have a fave hand cream though, I like to try always new stuff.
Yes, I am a handcream junkie! Though I don’t have as many as you do. My current fave is Gold Bond Ultimate Healing. 🙂
i quite like handcream too…but not as many as yours 😛 and i agree that i too never finish one handcream, always get new one, chuck old one aside. hehehe
currently i dont have a favorite, just using whatever is on my desk or bag. LOL.
I’m not as junkie as you. LOL. I like L’Occitane and C&E. Jurlique’s rose hand cream isn’t bad either.
Though they smell nice, I find Burt’s Bees ones aggravated the excema on my fingers.
My all time favourite is GROWN, it’s THE hand cream that I would buy over and over again!
Can’t live without handcream! L’Occitane’s Shea Butter is my all time favourite. I also like Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream for cold and dry winter days.
what? no handcream from Boots in the list? 😀 I love their green tea & soybean hand n nail cream…absolutely brilliant!
