Remember when I reviewed the EOS lip balm some time ago? I STILL keep one in my purse. Aside from being super moisturizing and keeping chapped lips at bay, I just love the spherical awesomeness of that balm. I got a chance to test drive the balm’s big sister…a hand lotion! Let’s take a closer look to see if it’s worth your pennies.
Like its sibling, the pebble-shaped hand lotion is designed to fit in your hand, which it does perfectly.
It’s paraben-free and includes oat, aloe, shea butter and Vitamin E and Vitamin C. And just like the balm, you can get it from Walgreens, Rite Aid, EvolutionOfSmooth.com and Drugstore.com. My thoughts? It’s not as absorbent as I would have liked for it to be. It was a wee bit watery and wasn’t thick enough to tackle my super dry skin.
I realize that this isn’t the lotion’s fault. I mean, I have SERIOUSLY dry skin and need super creamy lotions. Still, for $3.99, I’d definitely scoop these up for Mama Clumps and mildy ashy friends and family members.
Whatcha think? Have you grabbed one of these yet?
Not the biggest fan of scents but I’ve really grown to love thees hand lotions. They leave my hands soft but not greasy unlike most hand creams but I don’t think it’ll be enough during the winter time.
Totally agree. My winter-time hands are the driest!
I love the round shape and small size of the bottle but I, too, would love to see a creamier formula. I pried the bottle open (using my very handy letter-opener) just to test out my theory – yes, it’s refillable… so I’ll be recycling the bottle using the EOS body lotion. It’s slightly thicker and has the same cucumber scent as the hand lotion.
I didn’t even think about re-filling it with something else. What a genius idea!
They also have them at Ulta, which is nice because if you use one of their $3.50 off $10 coupons, you basically get it for 50c and that is pretty fab.
Score!! Thanks for sharin’, Cinnie!
I was in a store in Langly, Wa. and tried the Holistic Honey Lotion from Made from Earth. I fell in love with the smell first. I have a sensitive nose and thought I smelled like a Pez! I made everyone smell me and they agreed, it smells wonderful! I love the way it feels on my skin, it sinks into your skin real quick and my skin is immediatly softer. I am a lotion fanatic and use lotion at least 6-9x a day at work due to many bathroom visits. I wish it was a little less expensive, but well worth the cost in my opinion:)
