I’m always one to jump at the chance to try a new beauty product. So when Estee Lauder announced their new private spa collection I was ecstatic. So far I have loved every single product I have tried from the line, but between you, me and the gatepost this one is by far my favorite of the bunch. Now I’m all over Estee Lauder’s Smoothing Feat cream like stink on a monkey (or is it all over me?), never mind that now I don't have a penny to my name.

I was at the end of my rope as far as hand and foot creams were concerned. I had tried everything under the sun, and none were living up to my expectations. I felt as if I was grasping at straws and that I would never find a product that could help out my very dry feet and hands. On a wing and a prayer I bought this Estee Lauder product and have not looked back since.

The Product
Estee Lauder Smoothing Feat Manicure/Pedicure Treatment is a luxurious cream for the feet and hands that is fit for royalty. The cream comes in a handy flip-top tube that sits on it’s lid. The tube contains a generous 6.7oz for the price of $22. The scent of this product is amazing, like a slice of heaven. It carries the same marine scent as the rest of the private spa collection from Estee Lauder. Application of this product is child’s play, simply smooth on your hands and feet at any time, applying before bed produces even more amazing results.

Product Claims
This product makes many hefty claims but I am happy to say that it lives up to all of them, every other product on the market pales in comparison to this one. Here is what Estee Lauder has to say about this product.

“Rich in concentrated emollients, paraffin and a special moisture retainer, it pampers even the driest skin into kid-glove softness.”

“Like a "paraffin dip" spa treatment, it eases away dryness and discomfort.”

Product Performance
If you have never had a paraffin dip at the salon (or at home) you are missing out, far be it for me to force you into it, but you should really give it a try. These treatments can become expensive however, and if you are fortunate enough to own a unit at home you know that even this can be costly. Estee Lauder brought the spa right into my own home, smoothing feat is certainly not equivalent to a real paraffin dip, but it comes in a close second. This cream applies easily, smells great, doesn’t leave a film on the skin and produces amazing results. My feet are no longer dry and cracked, and my hands are softer than they have ever been. When first starting to use this product, I used it nightly before bed, now I use it once every few days as a preventative measure, because after all an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. I noticed all the cracks on my feet and dry skin on my hands and feet were gone within the first 3 or 4 days. Simply amazing, no product has eveb been able to do this before.

No ifs and or buts about it, this product is the best in its class and is a cut above the rest. This is certainly a cutting edge product that deserves to be recognized. Not only does this produce immediate results, but the results are long lasting as well. Let Estee Lauder bring the spa too you.

This is a fantastic product that is a cut above the rest and I suggest it to anyone who is suffering from dry skin on his or her hands and feet.
