**Review** - BornPrettyStore Hand Cream

Hello beautiful strangers!

I have been gone for sooooo long, but fear not, I am back! And today I have a new review for BornPrettyStore for you all.

I was sent this hand cream to give a whirl, and after using it for one week I am ready to share my thoughts on it. The thing that I love most about this product is actually the packaging. How cute is that little character?! Totally kawaii! Unfortunately you do not get to choose which design you will receive, however I don't think it really matters because they are both just as adorable as each other.


The reverse of the packaging shows (what I assume is) a list of ingredients, however it's not in English. If you are sensitive to any particular ingredients it would be worth contacting BPS prior to ordering to clear up any concerns, however the BPS site states that this hand cream is "made from pure ingredients".

The size of the tube is 50ml, which is ideal for keeping in your handbag or desk drawer. As it is a screw cap, there is no worry that the top will pop off and ruin things, which is always good.




Now, onto the application. The formula of this particular cream is quite watery, and not at all thick and creamy. Applied in a small amount it rubs in fairly quickly (about 30 seconds to be fully absorbed), however if you are more generous in your application then you may find you're waving your hands around for a few minutes to 'air dry'... I personally prefer a slightly thicker consistency for my hand creams, however this is great for a quick 'pick me up' on the move.

One thing that I LOVE about this is that the scent reminds me so much of the original Soap And Glory fragrance. It's light and kind of fruity, but doesn't linger. One thing that I find with a lot of hand creams is that although the fragrance is beautiful, it can ruin activities such as eating lunch as it's just too strong. This doesn't have that problem!



Although I probably wont repurchase this product due to the formula of the cream, I will definitely continue to keep it in my bag and use it all up!
