I've been using Aveeno for years and thought it was good. But H bought me some lotion from Crabtree and Evenlyn and it is *amazing*! It makes my hands and back feel so much better (gets very dry during the winter). Unfortunately, it is pretty pricey and the scents are really strong. Anyone have a good hand cream or body lotion they can recommend that isn't too greasy but is really hydrating for skin?
My hands/knuckles have been super cracked lately. The little 99 cent tin of Nivea Creme seems to work but I have to constantly apply it throughout the day. Then I go to bed and I'm back to square one in the morning

I think Crabtree and Evelyn does have the best hand cream! Some scents are atrong, but I have a scent from there in a white tube with blue writing Tom there spa/ relax line that has no scent. Also a tube lasts forever! I also like that French company, there's is very similar, L'ocentaine.
I love the sample of creme de corps I got but its too pricey for me. I do have Kiehl's Ultimate Strength hand salve that I like a lot and has lasted a while but I only use it at work.
The Bliss Body Butter in Sage and Lemon is one of my favorites. right now I only have a sample but I just bought that Today show deal.
I got a great deal on it recently! I bought 2 $20 groupons for $10 each, then went to the body shop when it was on sale for buy-1-get-1 ($20/tube). So I got 4 tubes for $20 ;D
Bliss Lemon & Sage Body Butter has been my favorite for years and years.
Their hand lotion is also good. I also really like La Mer's body lotion and hand cream.
This, plus CO Bigelow's big tub of lemon body cream.
I feel like v and I are style twins, I always agree with her posts.
I love CO Bigelow's lemon hand soap! But I am not allowed to buy the body cream because I have like 5 years' worth of body lotion stocked up in our apartment already. And sadly, I don't think that's an exaggeration. I am a lotion hoarder.
This isn't helpful because it has been discontinued. But my favorite is St. Ive's Whipped Silk. It is not greasy at all, and absorbs quickly. I bought 8 bottles last year and am using them verrrry slowly.
