This product is awesome. I absolutely love the smell and wish it came in a bottle so I could add it to other products I have. At first I thought the jar was rather small but you don't need a lot of the product to make it work. I absorbs very well and doesn't leave a greasy feel. I ended up buying some for my sister to try because she has dry rough hands and she loves it also. A definite good buy and I highly recommend it. :)
I've been on the hunt for the perfect hand cream since Body Shop discontinued an almond oil one I loved a number of years ago, and haven't yet found one that quite compares. I don't know if it's the combination of beeswax and almond oil, but I find that the scent of this product has an overpowering sweetness to it that I find unappealing. It also takes entirely too long to absorb (most likely due to the beeswax), and seems to leave a residue on my hands. The search for the perfect hand cream continues.
the first time i tried this product, i thought maybe the creme had gone bad. it felt just like vaseline + didn't absorb into my skin. i stopped using it because i didn't want to get greasy fingerprints all over my computer. and the smell is just... off.
This is my fave "treatment" hand cream. I only use this at night, at bedtime. It is a very heavy cream that smells great. I don't recommend for day use. Your hands will be oily, but, leave it on overnight while you sleep and it will work wonders. Before I discovered this cream, my hands would crack and bleed from Northeastern winters. No more with this. One jar lasts me the winter.
LOVE the smell of this! I know the texture doesn't allow it to sink in quickly (it is made from beeswax after all!), but if you love anything almond/marzipan scented, you must purchase it for the scent alone!
i really like this hand creme. i love the smell. it reminds me of amaretto. it does take some time to sink into my skin but i dont really mind.

I purchased this product because I am vain and an avid America's Next Top Model viewer (nothing better than vain people watching other vain people being vain and catty, right?). I've never taken much care of my hands because I'm a hands on type of person, particularly in writing, drawing, piano-playing, and DIY fashion; nail polish never lasts unchipped for longer than a day on my fingers and my cuticles are always a mess. Not to mention, some of my fingers are crooked and calloused from holding pens and pencils for too long. Of course, I would freak out when ANTM tells me that hands really give away someone's age, because I treat my hands like crap. I bought this cream in hopes of keeping my hands in good shape. Unfortunately, I don't think it does much on its own. It is greasy and the oils stick to the top of my hand for a ridiculously long time. Once it does die down, my hands don't feel all that moisturized. The smell ruins any perfume I might be wearing on my wrists as well--and it doesn't go with anything. So why the three stars and not the one? Because this product paired with a pair of gloves somehow works surprisingly well; furthermore, this product, paired gloves and washing my hands with honey once a day and rinsing works to at least keep my palms from flaking everywhere and my cuticles from peeling (it's really that bad, folks, and somehow I never thought it'd matter). I wouldn't buy again, however.

I have this two lippies because it DID moisturize nicely, but the downsides of it do not redeem this product despite its moisturizing qualities. This is coming from someone who used to use vaseline on her hands: this cream is thing I have ever used on my skin. It never absorbed and i still have grease marks on my car from when I use it on my way to the grocery store. The smell was so so strong that it made me sneeze and my dad, who was in the car with me at the time, had to open a window because it was such a strong assaulting smell. I get the same moisturizing qualities without the smell and grease from Palmer's Cocoa Butter

Mmmm, I LOVE the smell of this stuff! I am not a fan of most Burt's Bees products, especially with the lemony and mint smells. But I saw this and at first smell, it was love. I get extremely dry hands in the winter and was looking for a good moisturizer. A friend recommended getting a hand salve and I found this at Target soon after. Yes, it can be greasy, but it helps! I apply this to my knuckles and fingers and then apply a lotion over top and it keeps my hands moisturized for hours. Yes, the jar concept isn't the easiest to deal with, but the yummy smell makes up for it! It smells like almonds and cherries.

I love Burt's Beez Almond Milk Beeswax Hand Creme. First of all, it's one of the only really moisturizing hand creams on the market. It's very luxurious. The scent is very strong of Almonds but not for long. They somehow make this cream's scent pretty much disappear once it's soaked in. I don't know how they do it. Every time I use this cream I feel like I'm doing something really decadent for myself. It's like a bit of a high-end cream you'd imagine would cost $100 for the jar. Love the scent, love the moisture it provides. The only reason I'm not giving it a 5 is because it's jar isn't the easiest way to get cream on the hands and also because it's kind of greasy at first before it soaks in.
