Incredible!

This hand cream is incredible. It is more like a body butter, but less slick. It has a nice subtle smell that is not overwhelming. It moisturizes without being greasy. It also has improved the quality of my nails and cuticles. I have one by my bathroom sink and one in my purse. Excellent product well worth the price!

so-so

it does not smell that strongly, i do not know what that is all about. i find it is not a particularly intensive moisturizer and i, for one, like almond smells :) and the smell is the best part of the product. the design is annoying - less sanitary than other options and hard to close with slipper hands

Wonderful!

I bought this hand cream because I am a nurse and my hands get dry very easily at work from washing them so much. I absolutely love it. It's just the right consistency and like another reviewer said, it's not like a lot of "butter" type creams where you have to warm it up a bit before you can actually get any on your hands. As soon as you touch the cream, you're able to pick some up on your finger...read mores. It sinks in wonderfully in a few minutes and is extremely moisturizing. You don't need a whole lot of the cream per application, which is great as the jar will probably last you a long time. I actually did not find the scent to be strong at all. I thought it was light and just noticeable enough. It smells delicious to me, so I guess it depends on your taste - give it a smell in the store before buying it.

Great consistency, so-so scent

While I really really love the texture and consistency of The Body Shop's Almond Oil Intensive Hand Rescue, the strong almond scent leaves you kind of wishing for something more - perhaps something other than such an intense almond scent. I can't complain about the thick, non-greasy consistency of this Almond Oil Intensive Hand Rescue, almost like a cross between a body butter and a salve. The c...read moreream is thick enough that you can just run your fingers across the top of it to get just enough on your fingers without having to dig into it! Unfortunately, I checked at my local The Body Shop, and they did not have anything remotely similar in a better scent. The next closest thing was the Hemp hand treatment, but again the scent was less than ideal. If this came in a better scent, I'd give it the highest rating!

can't stand the scent

I just can't stand this one, although I have loved every product I've tried from the body shop. This one has a very strong scent. I suppose I could put it on my feet and wear socks, at least it would be away from my nose. I can't tell you if it works, I couldn't stand the scent long enough to you.
