Hand Creams; Dove, Cath Kidston and Sanctuary Spa Comparison
One of my pet hates is dry hands! Every since working at McDonald's my hands have become awfully dry and cracked due to the constant hand washing and harsh chemicals. To revise my hands I began using dove hand cream, which is okay, it takes a few days to gain softer hands but I thought it was time to change up and find something new.
Cath Kidston does a fabulous set of 3 hand creams, each a different fragrance. I purchased these from the store in Leeds for £6, they also sell these online www.cathkidston.co.uk. I must admit they smell beautiful, my particular favourite is the pink rose. I have had these for a few months as use them a few times each day but still have a lot left! They make hands reasonably soft after a few days, but what impresses me the most is the fragrances. If you have been chopping onions or garlic for example and still have the smell knitted into your skin after washing your hands these creams completely illuminate odours!
After finishing two nine hour shifts over the weekend my hands were wrecked. The Cath Kidston creams could not save my hands and the next day in town I decided to invest in something slightly more high quality.
After looking around I came across the sanctuary spa section and found a travel size, 30ml, bottle of hand cream. This was perfect as it was a brand I had heard about, it is the same size as the Cath Kidston tubes so I knew it would last and was only £3!
I cannot lie, this is the best product for reviving dry hands fast! The cream instantly locks in moisture, dries quickly and leaves hands feeling like velvet. I LOVE this cream. I have been using it a few time a day and I feel like my hands are back to how they were before I begun working! The only complaint about this cream is that it does not smell as great as the Cath Kidston fragranced ones- the smell reminds me of sun cream but after looking at a couple of other reviews on this cream many seem to like the fragrance of it, so not too much of an issue.
Out of the three if you're looking for a cream which just add a little moisture, not too heavy and to keep hands young, then Dove Hand Moisture will be great for you. If you're wanting your hands to smell beautiful and gain medium moisture then the Cath Kidston set of three is perfect! One could be left in a handbag, one at home, another at work so they're always accessible!
However if your searching for a fast moisturising hand cream that lasts then sanctuary spa hand cream is the most perfect cream for you. I'm sure there is other more expensive creams out there, however, if you're on a tight budget like myself this is definitely the best product for the price!
