I’m still in the middle of moving house & everything is still packed away in many many boxes that I just can’t face unpacking yet. So I’m working my way through some posts that I hadn’t hit publish on yet.
Working from home & doing a lot of crafting I wash my hands so often and I like to treat myself to a nice handwash & lotion. These are my current duo.
ESPA Zesty Lemon Ylang Ylang & Crushed Tonka Beans Hand Wash 250ml £15.00 – I’ve used a few of these ESPA hand washes now & find them to be a little slice of affordable luxury. They’re hydrating and moisturising. A bottle lasts a very long time and it smells incredible. This scent has been my favourite to date, what I like is that it contains 100% natural Essential Oils and smells zesty but a little masculine. This doesn’t dry your hands out at all and leaves them feeling soft and clean.
Molton Brown Thai Vert Soothing Hand Lotion (now called Lime & Patchouli) 300ml £20.00 – This also has a Zesty scent but also has Patchouli and that makes it smell very comforting & fresh. It feels luxurious and and pampering, the lotion keeps my hands hydrated and feeling silky smooth. I can’t stand when a handcream is greasy so this one is perfect as it is light, easily absorbed and provides hydration that lasts.
These two make a great duo and I have been enjoying using them & their Zesty scent is a reminder that Spring isn’t far away.
What is your favourite handwash / handcream?
Great post, I am obsessed with handcars lol. I try to use hand wash with no sls in but being on a limited budget is not always easy to get. At the mo I am using Organic Surge Tropical Bergamot (it’s actually the shower gel but I love it so much I wash my hands with it too!) my favourite hand cream is Liz Earle Hand Repair, however I’ve been using Dr Organic Lavender Skin Lotion which is a much cheaper option. I have really fallen in love with Dr Organic products, I find I don’t need much of the Skin Lotion so it’s been lasting me ages. Hope you get settled into your new house soon xx
Ooh that hand lotion sounds really, really lovely. I love that it has a pump too, that’s such a genius inclusion for a handcream xx
