It is very moisturizing and leaves my hands feeling soft for a long time.

My only reservation would be that the smell is quite strong. It lasts for a long time, almost as if I sprayed myself with a body mist. Which would be a good thing if I loved the smell and I know some people have been saying they love it but for me its just nice but nothing amazing. (especially because I tend to get bored with smells quite easily) So I suggest you smell it before buying. :)

Having said this I might repurchase it because as said earlier it's very moisturizing, although I would prefer a less scented smell. :)

This hand cream smells AMAZING!!! Absolutely love this stuff! I bought it while visiting Disneyland because I developed an allergic reaction to the handsoap which made my hands extremely dry. I ran into the sephora at Downtown Disney and picked up a little one from the travel size items. Love it!

This is pretty decent hydrating hand cream. I bought the mini size and liked it so in January when Boots were selling off the xmas stock I bought a hand wash and hand food large pump set to keep at the kitchen sink. Let me tell you, the novelty of the over sweet smell wore off very quickly. I can't stand it now, and there is not even a quarter of the pump bottle gone. The scent would be perfect for some 6 year old princess type.

I love this hand cream!
It smells AMAZING and is very moisturizing to my very dry hands. I have very sensitive skin that HATES fragrance but this does not seem to bother it, thank goodness! It is very creamy and not greasy at all and I find a little goes a long way. It leaves your skin feeling nice and smooth and soft. I have the travel size now and I love it so much I'm going to go out and get the full size for at home use and keep the smaller one in my bag at all times!

A little pricey but definitely worth it!!

I love this!
The winter has been very cold this year and I started noticed that my hands were becoming very dry and flakes were appearing on my skin. I usually only care about the dry skin on my face but my hands have been my main concern. I had this product at the back of wardrobe as a christmas present and wished I had started using it as soon as I got it. I'm a big fan of soap and glory so I thought I would give this a go!
After the first use in the morning at 7AM, my hands were not dry at all through the rest of the day. I put this on every morning and I have soft feeling hands all day!
Lovely! WOULD DEFINATELY BUY AGAIN!

Don't know about price as I got this in a gift set. Love the smell and it's naked my hands soft but the softness doesn't last all that long.

It's so funny to read over reviews and see a completely different perspective. Some of the reviews from the product make me think I'm using a different hand cream all together.

I'd been wanting to find this hand lotion for a while after hearing Megan (ciaoobelllaxo) talk about it in one her videos on YouTube. After looking in a couple Sephora's by me, I finally found it in a travel size at store downtown in the Water Place.

I've used in on and off for a while and I think I'm finally starting to get toward the end of my little tube. I think the price is...decent. $5 for a 50mL tube of hand cream seems a tad steep to me. I'd maybe pay $2 or $3 at most.

I don't find this to be greasy whatsoever and it is extremely fast drying. That's my biggest problem with hand creams, especially any from bath & body works. Don't get me wrong, I love that store, but the lotions take forever to absorb. I personally haven't had too many problems with my skin drying, but then again I use this on and off. I have noticed my skin feeling a little drier after consistently using it for a week. But I can't say for sure whether that was from using the lotion or constantly using hand sanitizer. (After contracting mono for a second time last year, I'm extremely careful with germs and sanitation).

As for the scent, I personally love it. It's not too perfumey and the scent fades after a while anyway. It's such a shame that that factor alone effects some people's review on it, but everyone is entitled their own opinion.

Overall I would like to repurchase this and try to use it on a regular basis. I'll definitely update my review in anything changes.

First off, if you don't like heavily scented products, then steer clear from this one. I love the scent of this hand cream though. I always take a tube with me when I go out and reapply it throughout the day when my hands need a little pick me up. It doesn't leave a sticky residue, but then again, I only apply it on the back of my hands, not my palms. Have been loving this product for quite some time now and I'm sure that won't change for a while.

I have about 3 small tubes of this stuff because it was on offer at the time. I really really really don't recommend this. I'm not really a hand cream user (never used it before this actually) but since I wash my hands very regularly I should get a hand cream to ensure I don't contract contact dermatitis. I watched a good review on YouTube so I thought I give it a go.

When I first got it I really disliked the scent and didn't run in easily to my hands, and afterwards my hands felt sticky (even though they are quite dry. Not too dry though, just normal). I didn't use it for a while. But one day I figured I should make it more of a routine to take care of my hands so I made sure I used it regularly. It became quite addictive actually! I still didnt like the smell but it didn't bother me. After using it regularly for about a week or so I have noticed my hands have been getting drier and drier. The other day they were really itchy and it almost hurt to move my fingers they were that dry... And recently I have seen some skin peeling off. This obviously takes care of the problem when applied but obviously my hands were never like this before using!! It is definitely this hand cream and a probable ploy to ensure you buy more of it. (I know that far fetched but I'm a skeptical person! Lol) definitely on the lookout for a different hand cream now.

Well yes it smells nice and I buy it because I just love the smell. But in the end I get sick of the smell so quickly. Yes it absorbs to my skin quickly so it doesn't leave that annoying greasy feeling. After a while using this product I find that my hands only get drier and show some allergic reaction.

Another awesome product recommendation by MakeupByTiffanyD. I love this lotion. I usually apply once per day and it definitely keeps my hands feeling soft and moisturized all day long. It is not greasy on your hands and when I apply It sinks into my skin pretty quickly. The smell is eh, but I find that it doesn't linger too long. Would definitely repurchase.

I really like this hand cream-- it smells divine but not overpowering, sinks in fairly quickly and leaves hands soft and pretty, but unfortunately, since I've been using it, my hands seem to be drying out more quickly. Worse, they feel almost tight, like my skin hurts to move. It's actually become quite distracting, which is a problem, since I have to type all day at my job.

I don't want to believe its this lotion because it's fabulous and wonderfully priced for the quality you're getting, but I've really never experienced anything like this before, and while I wash my hands frequently (work for a university where students from abroad are just returning--do NOT want any of that), this cream is the only change I've made my skincare regime right now. Will certainly update with any changes.

Ugh, I cannot get over the smell. Way too perfume-y. The lotion absorbed very quickly but my hands might just be *that* dry. My hands don't feel overly soft. I'll give it a chance, but the smell is getting in the way of me wanting to follow through :/

This has the same scent as the Righteous butter (which I love), but with a slight chemical tinge. The scent doesn't last as long, and the hand cream also feels a bit greasy and doesn't get absorbed into the skin that easily. Overall, it's a decent hand cream but isn't really anything special.

This is so, so , so amazing! Everytime I use this, my hands transform from cracked, dry, and peeling to soft and moisturized. It also smells like Dior Miss Dior Cherie perfume. I can not express my love for this. I honestly want to give everyone in the world a bottle of this.

I am in love with this hand lotion! And that is a lot coming from a hand lotion junkie. My hands typically are only been dry in the winter months until mid last year, since then they are always dry, to the point where the skin can hurt at times. Until, I gave this product a try! The scent is not anything to call home about. It doesn't leave my hands greasy just simply moisturized. I have gotten family and friends hooked on this hand lotion also. Overall, I would recommend and would repurchase this lotion.

I like the scent. But the product itself does nothing to my hands. I have this with me at work. My hands get so dry working in an office. I have to constantly put the lotion on cos I don't think it works. I get paper cuts like crazy.

Maybe this is just a personal experience but this has happened twice now (two separate tubes), when the product is squeezed out of the tube, an annoying dribble of water comes out too? I've tried shaking it before each use but still the same thing happens.
I find this really irritating and something I'd expect to find in a cheaper hand cream.
The product has a nice, but strong, smell. If you're after something a little more subtle then this may not be for you. It has the strong scent that all Soap and Glory products seem to have. Personally I like it, however I can see why others may not.
Price wise, I've never actually purchased this (its always been in Christmas/birthday gift sets) but I think a small 50ml tube is usually around £3ish. I wouldn't pay for this purely from my own watery experiences!
It does leave hands feeling moisturised but I prefer lighter hand lotions, whereas this seems quite thick (it does include Shea butter), intense and almost 'heavy'.
Packaging, I personally like, however I feel it could be more suited to the younger age bracket, rather than the more 'mature' lady looking for a 'classier' lotion.
