All you need is a Helping Hands...

I know, I know... ANOTHER Lush post but I just couldn't wait to rave to the high hills to you all about my latest Lush love.

The unfortunate fire at work meant a week of scrubbing and scraping and washing, and needless to say, my hands too a beating. Working behind a bar, my hands are never at their best anyway, but after all of the hard graft that followed the fire, my hands were a scaly dry mess.

I'd been using my Body Shop coconut hand cream at the time, and while it works well enough, it was doing nothing for my reptile hands. I then turned to Lush, and ventured into the little haven of black pots and picked up the Helping Hands hand cream (£7.75 for 100g). I was instantly sold by the little description "A cream that quickly sinks in, for hands that spend too much time in sinks" - quite apt considering the amount of pots I'd washed in the week previous!

I took no time at all in trying this and within the hour my hands felt softer than they had for a long while and after only a day of using this (albeit a few times that day), the horrific dry patches on my hands were a thing of the past and my skin felt brand new. Your hands are left feeling soft and supple for hours after using this, especially if you use after a shower! The almond oil and the cocoa butter really get to work and make the skin feel divine, and don't even get me started on the yummy smell (it smells like bread and butter pudding, YUM!!) You get so much product for your money too, and I know this little pot will be  lasting me a long time indeed!



Overall, I challenge anyone to buy this product and not love it instantly! It's my ultimate must-have for winter, and I've never known a hand cream to be so nourishing and work as fast! 

Have you ever tried Lush hand creams? Let me know if this worked for you, and don't forget to follow me on Bloglovin if you want to keep up to date with my posts.

Always, Alice x
