Atrixo or Palmers Hand Cream?

I don't normally come to this part of the forums, so hi everyone. 
I was in Boots today and they had a cute little pot of Atrixo Hand Cream (in a yellow pot) and a tiny bottle of Palmers cocoa butter. I think the Palmers was body lotion but it didn't say on it. I was wondering if anyone knew which was nicer for hands? Would the Palmers, being (possiby) a body lotion be more greasy? Does the Atrixo smell nice as it was sealed in store? I'm so indecisive I was late back to the car park and still didn't buy one!

I'm a big fan of Palmers for hands and body. Not greasy at all.0

I love atrixo. Its a nice clean, fresh smell (camomile). It makes you hands feel really soft from the first use! I've used it for years. You can get the big size tubs from Bodycare/Savers for about £2..•

Ah, my pessimism radar was correct - one result each! Thanks for the advice, but I actually ended up getting bot!. Not very money saving I know, but there is only so long you can agonise over such a decision. You should see me when I buy something expensive though!

Can't say whether Palmer's or Atrixo as I use neutrogena, but one thing over the years I have decided is a tube is better as I feel it is cleaner. At work if it is going to be on your desk would always go for a tube as others do tend to use it. Sorry OCD coming out!!!0

If you have dry hands or they are regularly in water, I would go for Atrixo Regenerating treatment, it's fantastic. I wouldn't use anything else and after trying mine, my sisters & friend use it too0
