Wow, okay so I picked this up on a whim and I'm glad I did. The balm feels soft on my hands and the scent is light, nothing overpowering. I keep the glass jar on my nightstand and reach for it after washing up.
I picked this up for my sister who has dry hands from work, and she has already asked me where to get another jar. The limited spring blend is a nice change from her usual balm.
Compared to the drugstore balm I've used for years, this one leaves my hands feeling softer for longer. I keep the jar by my desk and apply it after washing up.
Compared to the balm I used all winter, this one feels lighter on my hands and still keeps them soft through the day. I keep the jar by the sink and use it after washing up, and the dry patches I had on my knuckles have settled down. The spring scent is subtle enough that I forget it is there until I catch it.
I've been using this balm for about three weeks now, and it has earned a spot on my nightstand. It comes in a glass jar that feels nice to pick up, and a little bit goes a long way on my dry hands. I use it after washing dishes and before bed, and my knuckles feel softer. The spring blend scent is light and fresh, not heavy or floral. I keep it by the sink and reach for it more than I expected. My only note is that I wish the jar were a bit wider, but that is a small thing.
