Hi everyone!<\/p>\n

So as a nail blogger, I think it’s pretty important to keep hands nicely moisturised. I know if I don’t, mine become really dry and nasty – to put it short I can’t stand not having hand cream at my desk or in my bag. Today, I’ll be reviewing a hand cream I bought on a whim from Rose Rose Shop: The Saem Snail Hand Cream No.2 Lily. The other scents available are Freesia and Cherry Blossom.<\/p>\n

It comes in a cute little snail-shaped 40ml jar, with different colors indicating the different scents. This hand cream is scented, but I personally don’t find it too strong. It comes with a hygienic seal over the top (yay!) which is something which is really important to me in jar products. It has a very thick gel texture, however it sinks in quickly without being greasy. A lot of snail mucin products seem to have that quick-absorption benefit.<\/p>\n

In addition to having snail mucin, it’s formulated with Niacin, an ingredient known for lightening skin hyperpigmentation. It’s also alcohol, paraben and mineral oil free (if that matters to you). I personally think it’s unusual to have a jar product that’s paraben free – jar products are easier to contaminate by dipping your fingers in, compared to a tube or pump dispensed product.<\/p>\n

For me this is ideal to keep at my desk – I prefer tube packaging for a product I would bring everywhere with me. I also find this is sufficiently moisturising for my hands, but if you are someone with particularly dry hands, you might need something a bit more heavy duty.<\/p>\n

Are hand creams important to you? Do you think you’ll ever try any snail mucus beauty products? Let me know in the comments!<\/p>\n
