I agree with a lot of the previous comments on this product. It is a great hand cream. I use this at night because it comes in a tub form, which makes it hard to carry around in a hand bag. However, MB has promotions that you can sign up for on the website and they occasionally have specials where you recieve three 2 oz samples of products. So, in the last promo I got this in a bottle. They should offer it in this container for travel I think.
I have used so many different hand creams and lotions and this one does work and has helped my cuticles also. The scent is nothing special really, not strong enough to offend anyone.

Review: Simply put, I love this stuff. I used to work at a juice cafe, and this saved my hands from all the harsh cleaning chemicals and time in the dishwashing sinks. It's a very rich but light hand cream with a pleasant perfume-y scent and soft pink color. My favorite things about this hand cream - things that set it apart from the others - are how quickly it sinks in and how long-lasting its effects are. Most hand treatments I try result in greasy handprints all over doorknobs, magazines, or any other amusements I use to distract myself while the lotion absorbs. Mario Badescu's cream soaks in within a minute, which won my heart at once. It makes your hands very soft and leaves them feeling moisturized even after you've washed them.
The price is a little steep ($8 for 4 ounces), but it's so thick that you only need a little bit at a time. I've had this tub for a month and you can see how much is left. I like Mario Badescu's packaging because I think it's retro-kitsch, but some people think it's ugly or boring - just a matter of personal taste. The tub itself is easy to close even with lotion on your hands. I also like the scent, but even if you don't, it fades pretty quickly and won't interfere with any perfume you're wearing. The nice thing about MB is how generous they are with samples: you get three with every order, and a bunch of free ones if you fill out their online questionnaire.
I've given this to a friend who is a nurse and has dry hands from washing them so often, and now she's addicted too. Simple but effective, this hand cream is one of my very few HG products.
Would I buy this again? Yes.
Would I recommend it? Already have!

Based on the reviews here, I bought this cream and I am glad I did. I usually have dry and parched hands since I do not like wearing gloves at all. I had worries about my pre-matured hands but I have found a solution at last after trying almost everything, both high end and cheaper products.

This cream si a real blessing and I am so glad I found it.
I have tried hundred of hand creams but none satisfied me...until I found Elasto-Seamollient. This smells heavenly and moisturizes the hands very well.
I would definitely buy this one again and again.
I finally found a product that I would buy forever (this never happend in my case...I always swith them as I am so capricious). :-)

This hand cream is a real find. ( Courtesy of MUA of course :-) ) I give it 3s for packaging and price because it's not as expensive as other specialist brands and because though the tub could be more glam. - it is clean, sturdy and practical. Most importantly, the cream itself is luxurious to use --- a light peach colour and a light, pleasant scent --- a little goes a long way --- it absorbs quickly and easily --- and my hands are smoother and more hydrated than ever! Even in the freezing temperatures and snow we had recently. HG.

Woah. This is a miracle product. I have 2 children in diapers and between the constant hand-washing, bathing, cleaning and not wearing gloves, etc, my hands were almost a clinical problem. Not only were they dry, cracked and bleeding from cracked skin, but they were so chafed that fabric would get snagged on the rough skin on my hands while doing laundry - I had to wear gloves folding clothes or I'd rip the fabrics! I'm usually frazzled with the kids and don't have time to wait for a greasy creme to dry, and light formulas usually do nothing for me.
I got a sample of this in a swap and within a day, the healthy color has been restored to my hands (they were seriously grey!). My hands feel like satin. This feels luxurious to put on and there is not a hint of grease. I forgot how important nice hands are - I feel much prettier overall since I do not have to be embarrassed of my cracked, grey old lady hands.
I thought all hand cremes pretty much did the same thing, btu this one really stands out.

This stuff is the BEST. I am very tough on my hands--gardening, laundry, dishes, home repair, you name it. I bought this after reading reviews here, and I'm thrilled. It's a thick cream, and you only need to use a small amount to get great results No constant reapplying, as I've had to do with other hand lotions and creams. It lasts a long time, so I think the price is very reasonable for the usage you get. Best of all, it sinks in quickly so you can get on with your day. Love, love, love it, and have recommended it to many friends.

Love this hand cream. It's super moisturizing, may be greasy at first but after a minute this stuff melts into your hands. Smells great too.

This cream is wonderful. I have three children, one of whom is still in diapers, so I do a lot of handwashing everyday. By the time winter comes, my hands usually look like those of a very old woman. But with this cream, my hands look and feel great. I no longer have dry patches in between my fingers and wrinkly skin. The cream has a good consistency - not too greasy, but doesn't just disappear either.

Got this because of it's good reviews. Have been using a Aveda product that I love but hate the high price. This makes my hands so soft. I work in health care so my hands get a lot of abuse. I have used it on my feet and elbows too. It goes on heavy but soaks in fairly quickly. It stays a little greasy for a while but soon soaks in. Took one lippie off for that. I think would be a problem to use a lot during the day b/c of this. I would like it to be in a tube though. I used it before bed last night and my hands were so soft when I woke up.

Love thins hand cream. It's so moisturizing that I actually use it on my feet - works wonders! I also like the smell -- I find it soothing.

best hand cream EVER. I am extremely tough on my hands, and they certainly look older than my 25 years, but using this a few times a day...they turn so supple and young looking. I love this stuff so much. I wish it came in a tube so I could take it with me in my purse, but I'll live.

I received a sample of this and it is nice, thick luxurious cream for frequently washed hands. I'm gonna buy the full size and keep it on my kitchen counter =). On the best thing about this is the fragnance is VERY minimal so I can put this on frequently without the smell from getting overpowering.

i love this stuff! it smells amazing, very light and fresh, and it sinks right in and moisturizes well without being greasy at all.

I received a large sample of this in my MB order. I have to say I thought"just what I need another flipping hand cream"
But when I tried it I was amazed at how good it was. Truly unique on the market in that is sinks right into the skin but provides moisture over a long time. No longer do my hands look flakey and dry and I only need to apply it at night.
I am going to place a MB order soon just so I can get more of this!
Their packaging is pretty spartan looking, but I would rather see them invest in their ingredients they way they do.
For anyone looking at MB I suggest adding this to your order. It will be a must have item for me now.

I love this cream for all the reasons other reviewers stated: affordable, moisturizing yet light with an inobstrusive fragrance. However, I dislike the fact it includes parabens which is a known carcinogen. For that reason, I might re-purchase but it makes me lean toward the more expensive Dr. Hauschka hand cream.

I received a sample of this with my last order. It's a nice hand cream that leaves my hands soft and not greasy. While I'd probably order this in a full size, it's not an HG by any means. I'm also not a big fan of the packaging -- I'd like this better if it came in a tube.

I got this hand cream(even though I have about 9 others) because of all the great reviews. And let me tell you that I just love it. I use it at night and wake up with beautiful soft hands. It is pink, smells great and did I tell you you get a huge jar for $15. It is just great, sinks right into the hands. I am so happy I got this hand cream it is one of my faves.

My HG hand cream. Smells and feels wonderful, absorbs quickly and you get a huge jar.

I like this product! It isn't to greasy (as long as you don't put too much on) and it has a nice little smell. I like to wear perfume and I really hate strong smelling lotions, but this one isn't overpowering. I wish it didn't come in a jar, but I have a MB sample container and I just refill it when it gets low.
