I've suffered from very dry hands recently, so I brought a hand cream from The Body Shop to see if that could help my hands.
I used the hand cream a few times and thought it was wonderful. It had such a luxousrious creamy texture and left my hands feeling so moisterised. The lovely rose scent made my hands smell delicious and I really thought I'd found the perfect hand cream.
Then the day after I had used it, tiny red itchy bumps started to appear on the back of my hands. I realised it must have been the hand cream as it was the only new product I'd started using. I stopped using the hand cream, and had to use a special cream to take away the itching. The bumps lasted several days and the itching was unbarable.
Having such a violent reaction to the hand cream knocked my confidence. I was ashamed to let people see my hands as they lookd ugly with the red blotches all over them. It made going to work differcult, and I felt rather down for the days that the allergic reaction lasted.
At £5 it wasn't too much of a waste of money but due to my experience I wouldn't recommend this hand cream to anyone - especially if you have sensitive skin like me.
Have you tried this hand cream? What did you think of it?
