Hand Care

Advantages: SPF, Vitamin E, soft hands
Disadvantages: None

...The Sanctuary Hand Care The Sanctuary range offers a variety of different beauty products, all well packaged and very effective. The Sanctuary began as a Spa in Covent Garden over 30 years ago. Their philosophy is all about providing the time, space and expertise for women to renew that glow. I've never been to the Spa but friends have been and they do say that it is a wonderful experience and definitely a very upmarket product. Their hand care products were actually developed in the London Covent Garden spa. Generally most of the Sanctuary products are packaged in a very distinctive orange colour. 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. However, their range of hand care products come in a cream and green colour packaging. The outer...

Review of The Sanctuary Moisturising Hand Cream SPF15

'Hand & Nail Everyday Care Lotion'

Advantages: great fresh scent, moisturises, nourishes, softens, smoothens hands and strengthens nails
Disadvantages: Larger packs are more expensive but product does the job

...I like to carry a lotion or hand moisturiser in my hand bag to use on my hands when I am on the move or at work especially when I wash my hands after using the bathroom or if I notice my hands have gone dry after a few hours of typing away at my keyboard:) I use my hands a lot while working at the PC at the job so I like to have them moisturised and looked after though I suppose I'd do the same if I did not use them a lot at work; when I am home I like to take good care of them e.g. when I had to hand-wash my dishes before I had a dishwasher that allowed me the little plus of having no chipped nails for at least a couple of weeks or more... 'Vaseline Intensive Care Healthy Hand & Nail Lotion' is one of those products that I will often have in my bag or purse on the move. I buy the small 75ml pack that is also the handy size top...

Review of Vaseline Intensive Care Healthy Hand & Nail Lotion

You've got to hand it to Method!

Advantages: Attractively designed dispenser, thick gel, cleans and leaves hands soft
Disadvantages: Quite expensive for a handwash

...I've been a fan of Method products since picking up their 'Tub Scrub' cleaner a few months ago. I was initially attracted by their unusual and attractive packaging but my interest in the company and their products developed because of their ethical and ecological principles and the fact that they come across as a company that genuinely cares about the products they produce, as well as the consumers that use them. I don't usually subscribe to newsletters from companies online (I have enough junk email as it is) but I was genuinely interested in Method and wanted to find out more about the products that they produce and so I signed up to their email newsletter. Not only have I got more knowledge about the company and their range, which includes handcare and baby toiletries as well as cleaning products, but I also won a free bottle of their...

Review of Method Hand Care Hand Wash

* Raise A Hand If You're A Softy! *

Advantages: Long lasting, absorbs quickly, helps to look after nails as well as hands!
Disadvantages: Overpowering floral scent, leaves skin a little tacky.

...The cold weather is finally here and my hands hate nothing more then the wind and cold weather. I don?t have particularly dry hands but they still need some love! I also find that the hard water where I work (and their newly fitted hand-dryers) leaves my hands a lot dryer then they usually are and feeling a bit tight and not as soft as I like! So, I have been adding hand creams to my desk draw as well as perfumes, lip glosses and everything else I keep there for emergencies! * Vaseline Healthy Hand & Nail Conditioning Hand Lotion * The Vaseline brand has been going for almost 150 years, first producing their most well known petroleum jelly. But for the past 30 year also they have also become experts in the skincare range and a trusted name in the industry. Their Hand & Nail lotion should be somewhat of a little miracle worker...

Review of Vaseline Intensive Care Healthy Hand & Nail Lotion

Healthy hands

Advantages: absorbs quickly, light & non-greasy, not too expensive
Disadvantages: none

...While I was at work I noticed that my hands felt very dry. My nails were also a mess as I had removed some nail varnish the night before and not moisturised them afterwards. So on my lunch break I wandered off to boots to buy some hand cream. I must admit I didn't spend hours making my choice, I scanned the shelf and picked up the first tube that said it was for hands and nails. Then I saw this next to it for 50p less so I bought it instead! The product I ended up with was Vaseline Intensive Care, Healthy Hand & Nail everyday care lotion. It is in a pale pink tube with a blue lid and has the blue Vaseline logo at the top. It claims that it 'softens hands and strengthens nails by 50%'. This 75ml tube cost £1.79 in boots but I got it using my points as I don't get paid for another 4 days The instructions say that for the best...

Review of Vaseline Intensive Care Healthy Hand & Nail Lotion

Rich moisture leaves my hands soft and my nails strong and shiny!

Advantages: Low price, works well, smells good, lots of it
Disadvantages: There aren't any really

...Avon Care Rich Moisture Glycerine Hand and Nail Cream I bought this hand cream from Avon a few months ago and am a happy customer. As I am an Avon representative, some of you might know this if you have read any of my other reviews before, I get discounts on some of the products, and as this was one of them and I had never really tried a hand cream before I decided to give this one a go. I'm glad I did because since using this my hands seem softer and my nails are definitely stronger and more shiny. How do you use this? The hand and nail cream is so easy to use. All you have to do is rub a little bit into your hands. Don't wash them straight away after putting this on because you will wash off the cream and it won't be able to work. I use this about three times a week, I don't use it that much because I don't think I...

Intensive Care for Hands

Advantages: Lovely smell, refreshing, cheap, clears up dry patches
Disadvantages: None!

...My hands are quite dry from repeated dishwashing and housework, and my usual hand cream wasn't clearing up a couple of annoying dry patches I had. So off to Boots I went, to find something better. And there it was! Looking all pink and girly: Vaseline Intensive Care Hand and Nail Lotion. And even better it was only £1.49, but even better than that.....It was on Buy One Get One Free! Well, for that price if it's awful at least I haven't wasted too much money! Looks and smell: I bought the 75ml tube as opposed to the pump action bottle shown in the picture as that was all there was! The tube is a girly shade of pink and has a flip lid which it stands on. On the front of the tube, there's the usual two-tone blue box with Vaseline Intensive Care written inside in white. Under this it says: 'Hand and Nail Lotion, Softens hands and cuticles...

Review of Vaseline Hand & Nail Lotion

Soft hands for cheap

Advantages: Lovely bottle, smell & works well
Disadvantages: none

...I bought this about a week ago and have been using it at work every day. The office I work in can be quite warm and I deal with a lot of papers so my hands get dry really easily. Also because it has been so cold this winter I?ve started to get little red sore patches on the tops of my hands. I got this from Boots for £2.90 for the 200ml bottle. The reason I chose this one was because Vaseline is a name I recognise and trust, and also I found the pink packaging cute and it caught my eye. Packaging? It is a tall bottle with a slightly unusual shape where it is quite wide but thin the other way. It is baby pink with a blue lid. It has the standard blue Vaseline logo on the top and ?Healthy Hand & Nail? written beneath this in pink. The lid is easy to click on and off, and you just tip it upside down and squeeze gently to get...

Review of Vaseline Intensive Care Healthy Hand & Nail Lotion

Vaseline Intensive Care Hand and Nail Lotion

Advantages: Softens hands, smells nice, small handbag sized tube, cheap
Disadvantages: None really

...upright on it's lid, and the lid is sheer and a flip-top one so you can't lose it! There is the typical Vaseline Intensive Care navy log at the top, with navy writing. It isn't particularly stylish, but I'll overlook it because of the quality! This claims to 'soften hands and cuticles and strengthen nails'. It contains milk proteins and AHA (I don't have a clue what it stands for), which sounds impressive! You only need a small blob for both hands. You squeeze the tube to get the hand cream out, so it's easy enough to control the amount you're squirting out.It has a light, sweet, soapy fragrance to it, that isn't overpowering but is pleasant and won't clash with your perfume or body spray. It fades after a while anyway. The hand-cream is pink in colour and neither thin or thick, just right. It's light and easily absorbed. Some hand...
