Twice a month when I get paid, I feel like a millionaire.
On this particular day, I paid $14 for hand cream. I am not even a hand cream person. Aside from my face, I moisturize nothing. When I wake in the morning and find my legs dry and flaky, I reach not for lotion but leggings. Cover those babies up! No one will know!
So gross...I know..
No doubt that this is a wondrous product. The actual lotion is thick, creamy, and effective. It has the same consistency as buttercream frosting when you squeeze it out of the tube, but as it absorbs the warmth of your skin it turns into soft butter. It's also worth noting, I think, that the hand cream is matte, not shiny like most lotions. It looks and feels very decadent.
It takes a while to sink into your skin (I'd say 7-10 seconds) but I noticed that during the week that I used MOR on a daily basis, I had no hangnails (ouch, hate those) and my cuticles were never dry. In November.
The fragrance is subtle and I love that about this hand cream. I already wear perfume/frangrance mist, so I don't like very aggressively scented things that would compete with it. It's sweet but subdued, it's a comforting and luxurious sweetness.
There's another scent that I loved - Basil & Grape - that I think I'll get for my mom for Christmas along with the Fresh Sugar Lip Balm.
I am most definitely enjoying the MOR Hand Cream in Honey Nectar -- do I think it's worth $14? On paydays, yes. On budget-conscious days...I'm not too sure. I only say this because I am not an extravagant spender on beauty products, and hand creams are not part of my beauty necessities.
Have you tried it? What do you think....worth the money?
