Lush scent and great softness in a small tube, 19 Sept. 2015

Beautifully scented so although appealing to those, like me, who use it often and like perfumed hands, one might suggest that those of you whose hands might be dry due to allergies, dry skin conditions or cracked and sore, then this may not be the best cream for you.

The perfume was the first thing I noticed in this delightfully and prettily packaged product (ideal to be given in a gift hamper I would think) but I use handcream throughout the day. I lose count of the number of times in an average day that my hands are in water either for washing dishes, cleaning worksurfaces or simply just washing my hands so my hands tend to be quite dry though not chapped. In fact I use so much hand cream that I have, of late, resorted to the larger pump containers of body lotion for dry skin. Most tubes of handcream do not last that long with me but you only need a small dot of this luscious cream and once well rubbed in, it leaves them soft and supple without a greasy residue (which...

Brilliant hand cream that performs really well., 17 Sept. 2015

Kaffe Fassett Restore Hand Cream is a deeply moisturising hand cream suitable for dry hands and is especially good for extra dry and sore hands. It's nourishing ingredients have been chosen to soothe and nourish work day hands, hands that spend a lot of time in water and hands suffering from dry skin conditions.

The ingredients contained in Kaffe Fassett Restore Hand Cream include honey and rose, shea butter, vitamins E and Pro-B5, bergamot, orange blossom, musk and oleander all of which are effective in helping skin to hydrate, soften and also in preventing moisture loss in skin. It can be used multiple times per day.

This hand cream's consistency is a fairly thick white cream. When applying a little goes a long way, the cream soaks into the skin well and does not leave a greasy...

The scent really grew on me., 16 Sept. 2015

This hand cream is a Heathcote & Ivory product with Kaffe Fassett branding. This seemed a little strange to me as Heathcote and Ivory are well known perfumiers but Kaffe Fassett is known for his vibrant coloured and textured knitwear and artistic designs, popular in the 1980's - so it is not a name I would associate with body products (perhaps they are trying for a Cath Kidston effect). This is a really large 100ml hand cream and comes in a flower patterned box with standard "metallic" type hand cream packaging inside. The frangrance is Achillea and the tube is light and dark pink striped (the Kaffe Fassett input?). The cream is rich and moisrurised and is very heavily perfumed - so if you don't like very fragranced hands this is not for you. I certainly would not use it on my hand if it had any scratches or abrasions.

The fragrance comprises Bergamot, Orange Blossom, musk and Oleander according to the packet but smells heavily of the bergamot and oleander to my...
