A'kin Hand, Nail & Cuticle Creme - A Review For My Pure

A'kin is a brand I have grown to seriously love over the last few months I love their whole philosophy, organic, paraben, and petrochemical free products, that do the job. It may have escaped your notice or not ;) that it's winter time, and what happens in winter? as well as being cold, our skin dries out, and in particular our handy pandies. That's why I chose a hand cream for one of this months My Pure products.

The A'kin Lavender, Geranium and Jojoba Hand, Nail & Cuticle Creme comes in a cream tube and comes jam packed with moisturising ingredients, such as Shea Butter, Avocado Oil, Jojoba and Botanical Glycerin as well as Vitamin E and Vitamin B5. It has a reasonably thick, creamy texture

which spreads easily and absorbs well with hardly any stickiness or residue, leaving your hands softer and more hydrated

Containing a high proportion of essential oils including Lavender, Geranium, Rosemary and Pettigrain, it has quite a strong, albeit natural smell, it isn't unpleasant but some people might find it a little bit overpowering especially since it has a tendency to linger on the skin.

Despite that though I think this is a good hand cream I'm not a 100% sure I would repurchase but it certainly does the trick in a relatively natural way. A'kin Lavender, Geranium & Jojoba Hand, Nail and Cuticle Creme retails at £7.99 for 75ml. Any questions please let me know x
