Product Rave: Cowshed Hand Cream

You may remember a couple of weeks ago I blogged about the Free Cowshed Hand Cream offer in this month's Instyle Magazine. Well I got my mitts on the magazine today and I can report the Hand Cream is absolutely gorgeous and the perfect size for hand bags! I selected 'Cow Slip' which is a soothing hand cream with essential oils of sweet orange and peppermint. The scent is refreshing yet comforting at the same time and reminds me very much of Christmas, which given it is less than 9 weeks to go is perfect for this time of year ;) The cream is quite thick and rich yet sinks in quickly and leaves the skin well moisturised and soft but is not at all greasy.     

I love everything about the Cowshed brand: their quirky product names, the lovely packaging, the gorgeous scents and most of all the fact they only use organic natural ingredients. Their product range are free from parabens, petrochemicals and sulphates and are suitable for vegetarians. I have enjoyed using their bath soaks and body lotions for years and I would love to try more of the range. The hand cream won 'Best Hand Cream' at the 2011 ELLE Beauty Awards and full size costs £16. You can check out the hand cream and their whole range of pampering products here http://www.cowshedonline.com/ and save 20% entering the code 'INT20'.


What are your favourite Cowshed products? What 'Cow' would you describe yourself as? I am either Lazy Cow or Knackered Cow depending on my mood ;)
