Peachy Cream,Big Body Butter.

Advantages: Lovely smell,hydrates your skin
Disadvantages: Doesnt absorb very fast

...'Soap and Glory Peachy Cream Big Body Butter' is a body butter that promises to revitalise,hydrate,soften and smooth the skin. I got mine from Boots for 9.50p for 300ml and now i'm completely obsessed with the range! It really smells of Peaches and Cream and apparantly contains Cocoa Butter,Orange,Lemon,Bilberry Skin Smoothers and Shea Butter....and not forgetting Peach Oil! This is a great list of ingredients,as we all now the softening properties that Cocoa Butter and Shea Butter have. The packaging: The packaging is really eye catching,its a baby peach round sturdy tub,with a blue lid. True to Soap and Glorys style of presentation,the packaging is full of brightly coloured writing,almost similar to that of a newspaper headline. The lid says 'Soap and Glory' in the middle,with a darker in colour shade of Peach saying 'Big...

L'Occitane's Shea Butter hand cream does the job

Advantages: Soothes sore, dry skin on hands very well, and smells nice
Disadvantages: Very expensive, can be a little heavy for some people

...This is a particularly rich hand cream that i'd recomend to anyone who suffers from dry skin. It is a little heavy, and doesn't soak into the skin straightaway, but for those with very dry skin conditions, this isn't a problem, and i've found that it soothes tight, sore skin extremely well. It's rich enought to use elsewhere on the body; particularly the knees, heels and elbows. It smells nice, not too perfumed, and the packaging is reminiscent of days gone by. The tube itself is quite maleable, making it relatively easy to get the last few squirts of the cream out. The Shea butter content is around 20%, and also boasts fruit, leaf and honey extracts. A lovely product that does the job and looks great in the bathroom; my only gripe is that it is pretty expensive at around £16.50 for a large tube (150ml), but you can buy a smaller...

Review of L'Occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream

Baby Nappy Rash Cream in French Disguise!

Advantages: Provided immediate relief from dry hands and absorbs fairly quickly.
Disadvantages: Smells exactly like baby nappy rash cream. A rip off price for such average quality cream.

...What is it? *********** A premium hand cream by the French company L'Occitane. Special Features? ******************* A specially formulated premium hand cream containing 20% of Shea Butter, Linseed extract, Honey extract, Sweet Almond, Coconut Oil, Rapeseed extract, Rosemary extract and Sunflower Seed Oil. Especially formulated to nourish, protect and soften dry hands. What do I think? ***************** Despite it's swanky brand name and claims of French grandeur. I am not fooled. Upon application it provided immediate relief from dry hands which is to be expected. It has quite a thick consistency but does absorb quite quickly into the skin. However, it does leave a slight residue but I don't find that it causes any problems. It appears quite a thick concentrated cream, but I find that that I do still need to...

L`Occitane Shea Butter Foot Cream

Advantages: Really works well
Disadvantages: It is expensive

...I have been using L`occitane products for a while now, basically they are beauty products, they sell foot cream, shaving cream, bubble bath, soap and much much more, there stuff is really good. the one bad point though is that they are really expensive, (I get a discount as my sister in law is a mangeress in one off their stores.) She tends to buy the family birthday or christmas presents from her store, recently she got me Shea butter foot cream as I am always complaining about my sore feet. Sorry I am not sure off the price as it was a gift. Description The cream comes in a silver 150ml tube which in turn comes in a brown box and it has the L`Ooccitane logo on , the lid is a screw on one and is navy blue in colour. There is a slight smell from this cream but it is`nt strong and it is nice. Instructions for use Use both...

palmers cocoa butter stretch mark cream

Advantages: stopped me getting bad stretch marks
Disadvantages: a little sticky

...I found this cream in Superdrug when I was around a month pregnant and started using it straight away. I bought a tube which comes in a box and is priced around £5 for 125g. You can also get a lotion which I tried to which costs £5 for 250ml. The cream kept my skin soft and I didn't ever get itching like it says you can suffer from in pregnancy books. I used this cream on my tummy, hips, thighs and bum. During my pregnancy I did get alot of stretch marks on my bum and hips that appeared red and purple but I carried on using the cream and not one mark appeared on my tummy. Around 2 weeks after having my beautiful baby my stretch marks had already dissapeared. I think that through using this cream that contains cocoa butter, vitamin E, elastin and collogen it helped my skin stay soft and supple enough to stretch...

Review of Palmers Cocoa Butter

Best hand cream - smooths like silk

Advantages: Great results - only a little required
Disadvantages: Rather pricey

...My 3 year old daughter has had problem skin including atopic eczema from a very young age and in cold dry weather, she gest extremely dry patches on her arms, legs and wrists. We have tried all sorts of creams and medication but nothing has every worked quite like shea butter. This is the best hand cream that we've ever used as it only takes a pea size of the cream to smooth out her skin and calm the redness. The cream helps to reduce the redness quickly. Works like magic for our family and we will be keeping this as one of our regular buys! I have recommended to my families and friends and all I've heard are postive reviews of this product....

THe Sanctuary Body Butter

Advantages: Rich and creamy, quality product
Disadvantages: Smell not for everyone

...products. I think this gives the products quite an upmarket and classy look and makes you think to begin with that they are a very good product. The body butter comes in a tub making it quite easy to get the cream out of tub. The body butter itself is a light cream colour. In the gift pack I received the body butter came in a tub weighing 50ml but you can buy bigger individual tubs of 475ml for £7.99. On first look at the body butter it looks very rich and creamy. When you put it on your skin it is nice and luxurious and goes onto the skin well and soaks in well. It definitely leaves my skin nice and moisturised. All in all, this is a good bath product that I would definitely recommend to everyone....

Review of The Sanctuary Body Butter

All in one miracle cream!

Advantages: many products in 1, saves money, rubs in easily
Disadvantages: expensive on the high street

...MIRACLE CREAM I started using the Elizabeth Arden 8 hour cream because of all the fantastic reviews it had, and I must say it fulfilled all of the expectations I had plus more. It truly is a miracle cream and is affordable. Being the well known brand of Elizabeth Arden you can find it in most department stores and high street stores such as Boots however I would recommend buying it online as you will find it?s a lot cheaper. On the CheapSmells website you can buy a 50ml tube for £11.90, I have seen it not online for prices in excess of £20 so you are definitely better off buying online. You can get the 8 hour face cream in sizes 30ml and 50ml. You can also get the miracle hand cream in 75ml. The cream itself is mainly used as a skin protectant and can help with problems such as dry, flaky skin. But the miracle with this cream is that...

Review of Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream

Shea Butter was great and took away the dryness

Advantages: Definitely relieves dryness
Disadvantages: none

...My wife recommended this product with Shea Butter because of the constant dryness on the bottom of my right foot. Actually, I thought it was some type of condition that I had that would probably not go away. I tried all the normal lotions that my wife brought home but when I tried this for a couple of weeks it was great! First, I would like to say that I am more of a jock and don't really use these type of products but believe me if your husband has that really bad dryness on his feet, this is the product to use! Some of the information about this product is known as a moisturizer and emollient. It is also used for scars, eczema, burns, rashes, and of course severely dry skin. I would rub it in deeply every night and wear one sock and did this for two weeks. After the second week I could really tell the difference and I...

Eight Hour Miracle Cream!

Advantages: Heals and Soothes skin.
Disadvantages: Price, can take a while to absorb.

...Before I bought Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream I had read about it in magazines with lots of Celebrities citing it as one of there "Must have" beauty products. As ever my inquisitive nature took over and I decided to invest in a tube to find out what I have been missing. So of I went to my local Debenhams and asked the Beauty Advisor for a tube of this recommended cream. The Cream cost me £18 for a 50ml tube. I know this is also available at other department stores so it may be possible to buy this cheaper. The eight hour cream comes in an off white box with the Elizabeth Arden logo on the front. The actual tube is white in colour with black writing across the front and a screw top lid. Eight Hour Cream was developed by Elizabeth Arden over 70 years ago. Its intended use is to sooth minor skin irritations and calm chapping...
