Nett Wt:30ml
Scent: Mildly sweet
Price: This was a gift
Texture: White, cream


This was a surprise gift from a friend at work. He just knew what to get for a lady! Hehe. This 30ml tube last about 4 months - because I alternate with my Crabtree hand cream too.

I like that it is non sticky. I wash my hand like 8 times a day at work, and must massage cream on after each wash. Does not make me icky about using the keyboard after the cream. Hands are comfy with this cream too, it does keep dryness at bay. Feels supple.

Now the thing with the scent.. it is not bad, but its not my favourite scent. Smells sweet, if anymore would appear plasticky.. like super sweet vanilla.

The packaging in foil makes it easier for me to use all of the product. Simply roll it with a pen, no wastage! :)
