I love having an assortment of fabulous hand creams at my disposal right before I go to bed, so that I can moisturize my hands and feet and wake up with soft and supple extremities. Lately, I have been testing out some divine and noteworthy hand creams that I am excited to share with you. Happy Hydrating!

1)  Clarins Hand and Nail Treatment Cream ($30)

This is a wonderfully emollient cream that protects your hands from the elements, minimizes the signs of aging, heals dry chapped skin, strengthens your nails and conditions your cuticles. It contains sesame oil and Japanese mulberry which hydrate and nurture your hands. This is a beautiful European style cream that smells divine, feels yummy on my skin and leaves my hands soft and silky for hours. This is my new fav!

2)  La Prairie White Caviar Illuminating Hand Cream SPF 15 ($150)

This is an uber luxurious hand cream that brightens, refines and hydrates your hands while providing UVA/ UVB protection with an SPF 15. What makes this hand cream so special is that it contains white caviar illuminating brighteners which target your age spots and overly pigmented areas. This cream is so much more than just a moisturizer! It really treats those nasty age spots (the ones that give your age away!), protects against future pigmentation, it smells like a high end French spa and it helps your hands look younger. And the silver caviar & white packaging is totally gorg! This is luxury worth the indulgence.

3) Moroccanoil Hand Cream ($28.99)

Moroccanoil came onto the hair scene with a vengeance several years ago with its Argan oil infused hair care products, and now their new body care line is trying to make it’s mark too. This addictive new hand cream contains the antioxidant rich Argan oil that put the Moroccanoil brand on the map, along with cocoa, shea and avocado butters to hydrate, repair and protect your hands. This is another swoon worthy hand cream that smells fresh and sexy, instantly penetrates and leaves my hands supple and hydrated all night long = LOVE!

This wonderfully refreshing and hydrating hand cream contains shea and cocoa butters whipped together with more than 10 natural oils and extracts to treat your hands to this yummy slice of lemon cream pie (almost!) I love the true lemon scent, the creamy texture, the under $10 price and the fact that you can easily find it at your local mass retailer.
