Cherry Blossom your winter blues away

You may remember a previous post on The Makeup Case about Natio Hand and Foot Exfoliate where I mentioned my love for L’Occitane Cherry Blossom Petal Soft Hand Cream. I thought why not elaborate on this and let you know a bit more about one of my all time loves. First a little background into the lovely world of L’Occitane, all of L’Occitane’s products are made to recreate the scents and colours of Provence, France. Anyone who has stepped into one of their amazing stores will know all about the beautiful products they produce, from a body & hands range, bath & shower range, face care and make-up, sun care, hair care, men’s range and home fragrances (their candles are breathtaking! You should try the Cinnamon Orange one, delicious) .

Now onto the star of the moment, Cherry Blossom Petal Soft Hand Cream. A vitamin E and shea butter enriched cream that soaks into your skin and makes you feel like heaven. The cream itself is so lightly textured which is great as it never feels like you have applied to much or too little. With the windy season still rearing its ugly head your hands really tend to suffer and are the first part of you to show signs of dryness, a hydrating cream is a must to eliminate this awful thing from going down and luckily Cherry Blossom has it in abundance.

One of the best parts of this product is its amazing smell, I am not going to lie to you, this smell is pretty darn spectacular! Sometimes I find myself applying it more for the smell as opposed to the actual dry skin problem; I have had so many comments on this scent that I am starting to wish it came in a perfume form and I could douse myself in it every morning (sorry boyfriend, I have a problem with excessively spraying perfume that he now counts the amount of squirts I spray).

RRP: $36.95 for 120ml. Available from L’Occitane Boutique’s or you can check out their stockist.
