Botanics All Bright Fast Absorbing Hand Cream

Botanics are one of those fabulous little brands that provide extremely purse-friendly, effective products that are pretty fuss-free, and in fairness they probably get overlooked quite a bit which is a shame as their range is extremely comprehensive with products for hair, body and skin, with the facial skincare products offering six different lines, so there really is a lot available and I recommend checking them out.

I just wanted to give a quick review of the All Bright Hand Cream as it’s happily slotted into my manicure routine without so much as a whisper of acknowledgement on here.  It’s a very nourishing cream that feels a little bit like a serum/cream hybrid and it contains AHAs to gently exfoliate skin.  Mostly importantly it absorbs extremely quickly with very little effort; you don’t have to spend ages working it in, and instead you can just apply and go and within a couple of minutes you’re left with soft, film-free hands which is really not bad for £2.49.  I’m rubbish at remembering to apply hand cream so this only really gets a use when I give myself a manicure (or when I’ve had a manicure and I come bouncing home with the best intentions) so I can’t vouch for how long it will last, but you only need a small pump (I’d say around a 5 pence size) so I would hazard a guess at this lasting quite some time.  Available now from Boots – link.
