42ENGLISH's Full Review: Avon : Planet Spa African Shea Butter Hand & Cutic...
Maybe its all the medications I am taking, maybe it is my age, Im not sure, but I have been having big problems with dry skin on my feet and hands. These are parts of my body that I have always babied to keep them young looking so I was really stumped as to their sudden condition. My cuticles were parched and the backs of my hands were becoming flaky, ugh!
I had given Vaseline products a few tries but the petroleum jelly ingredient just sits on the skin and temporarily softens. My Avon rep and I were talking about how great Avon Planet Spa African Shea Butter Foot & Elbow Cream worked for my elbows and I did buy some more but she also advised me to buy Avon Planet Spa African Shea Butter Hand and Cuticle Cream to use on a regular daily basis.
This product comes in a plastic, 2.5 fl oz tube with a flip-top cap. It has the distinct fragrance of shea butter.
Avons Claim:
Improves skin texture for more youthful hands and healthier looking nails. Strengthens and beautifies nails while helping protect them from damage and brittleness.
Clinically and dermatological tested.
My Experience:
Some people cant abide the sickly scent of shea butter but I love it and this product reeks of it. It is thick, white and creamy and glides onto the skin easily. I slather my hands (about a quarter size application), making sure I get between each finger and all the way to my wrists. This product just sinks right in immediately and leaves no stickiness behind. I have noticed a distinct difference in the condition of my cuticles. They are now soft and pliable instead of dry and cracked. The backs of my hands have also improved greatly, no more flaking.
Because this product absorbs quickly, it is great for using at work. My hands are soft and smooth yet there is no stickiness and I dont get this cream all over my computer keys and cup, etc.
My nails are also healthy looking and not as brittle. This is a plus as I can keep my natural nails longer for a longer period, no need for falsies. At $5.50 per tube, this cream is cheap but it sure is effective.
Conclusion:
I had been really stressed about my hands and feet but Avon Planet Spa African Shea Butter Hand and Cuticle Cream took care of business and made my hands soft and smooth again.
My cuticles and nails have also benefitted from the shea butter ingredient and I am really pleased with this buy.
If you have dry hands and dry, cracked cuticles, give this product a try. It worked for me.
