    Another vote for Clarins! I also really like the Body Shop Hemp hand cream. It's really rich, but doesn't smell as good as the clarins one
    Not buying clothes for a year - it's liberating!
  • I also say a big thumbs up from me for the Body Shop but agree the hemp doesn't smell so appealling but the Almond hand cream is wonderful and smells divine :j

    One day maybe I will be debt free :o
  • I have to agree on l'occitane handcream with shea butter its very rich & goes along way( smells delish). I have also used Liz Earle hand repair & while the cream is a lovely texture the smell is too strong for me.( & I love her products & use skin repair everyday!)
  • Boots No 7 hand cream (£i0ish) is lovely and healing and Soap and Glory from Boots and Harrods smells wonderful and is very good, they have a Christmas handwash and hand cream combo for around £8, I also treat myself (I'm a Gran) to Clinique hand cream when there is a Bonus time on, I can't remember when I've had to buy make up as I keep an eye on bonus times.....House of Fraser right now
  • I love the good old Vaseline Intensive hand cream - in pink bottle - especially after washing up - lovely smell too.!!!! but luxerywise, i love the Moisture Glove by Clinique although its frangrance free - it doesn't make my hands dry up later so that i have to keep reapplying- and like frankie55 i;ve hardly bought any makeup too cos of bonus time!!!

    One of the nicest handcreams - and certainly to give as a gift - is the Jeunesse des Mains by Clarins. I had some as a birthday gift and it's really lovely.

    I agree, this is gorgeous. I had a hand massage at a Clarins counter and they used this - it smells lovely and leaves your hands beautifully soft.

    Origins Make a Difference is nice too - I had a sample size tube and it lasted ages.
  • I'm not a Grandma but I love Soap & Glory 'Endless Glove' (£5ish), Liz Earle Hand Repair (£16ish) and my No 1 choice is Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Hand Cream (£20) which smells absolutely gorgeous and is so softening. The Elizabeth Arden one can be quite a good buy if you get it when you get a gift with it- John Lewis are good for this.

    Hope that helps.

    Another vote for Elizabeth Arden!:j It is the best and I have tried loads over the years. Superdrug often have it now as a boxed set and it is very reasonable. I'm sure I paid £9.99 recently for a see-through bag with large tubes of both the handcream and the 18 hr cream, which is also superb and you can use it for anything.

    18 hr cream is the one thing Mylene Klass said she had to take in the jungle! You can use it for sleeking down eyebrows, dabbing on spots, moisturising your skin, for sunburn, as hand cream, as lip gloss and so many things.
  • Figs and Rouge Camelia hand cream is really nice-it's usually about £9-99ish- and Gok Wan was recommending it in an article on best prezzies for under a tenner in Sky Mag :)
    Owing to financial constraints, the light at the end of the tunnel has been switched off until further notice. :(
