    I buy this for my boyfriend. he is constantly getting his hands cut up. It doesn't have a very girly smell yet does not smell bad. this product helps his dry cracked hands which are very bad. i have used the product as well and really enjoy it. i have a tube at home and at work it is really nice and lasts a really long time. a little goes a long way.

    This is one of the best products that Body Shop has ever come out with. I have dry skin, which becomes even drier in the winter time due to the climate of the area I live in. And winter is such a challenge to try to keep my hands from becoming dry, cracked and painful. A few years ago, I went into the Body Shop to pick up another hand lotion, one which I love the scent of but honestly, it was not doing the job of keeping my hands moisturized. One of the wonderful sales associates encouraged me to try the Hemp Hand Cream, and to be honest, I did not like the scent of it all when I first tried it. And it did take me some time to get used to it, but once I did, and I noticed the obvious difference in my skin, I was in love with it. It is a little pricey, but it is worth every cent. I also keep a small tube of it in my purse to use throughout the day.

    I am in the health care profession and I wash my hands a lot. My hands were always cracked and painful and never really seemed to heal until I found this moisturizer. I was actually turned on to it by a friend at work. She swore by this lotion. I now use it daily and my hands are soft. The only thing I don't really care for is that it does take a while for the lotion to sink into the skin and the price does seem steep at $18.00. I continue to buy it anyways because I know it is worth it and really does work.

    Works great to soften skin, however I cannot stand the strong smell. I returned it.

    I LOVE the packaging of this product. I feel very "earthy" and natural when I use it. It smells great, not too sweet, or too clean, but just-right. I tend to apply this product just to the backs of my hands and my cuticles because it is a little heavy, but it is really great for the winter (even in Ohio). I found some products can really dry out my hands, but this product makes my hands feel really soft and healthy and it extends the life of any manicure!

    This is one of The Body Shop's best selling products. It's $18.50 CDN for 100 mL.

    A friend of mine bought me this and it took me four months to finish, so that is already a hint that I don't like the product. I really moisturize my skin a lot so if I like a skincare product, you can be sure it will be used up quickly.

    I don't find anything special about this cream. It did not get rid of the dryness or any of my eczema that I have on my right hand (my eczema is very mild now and hopefully, almost gone). And I used this cream prior to bedtime to give it several hours to possibly work.

    The cream is a bit thick like a paste consistency. It can be a bit greasy like most other creams but the main point is that it did not perform any better than any other random hand cream I've tried. And honestly? Why settle for random when it's $20 after tax.

    Also, I started to detest the bitter smell in this cream.

    Verdict: I will not be re-purchasing this product.

    I love this cream!! I have used it for the past six years and I haven't found anything comparable. This cream will heal any cracks or dry areas you have on your body. I work in the health care industry and my hands take a beating, I apply this cream a couple times per shift and it leaves them smooth and feeling moisturized. The smell isn't bad, it's a little unusual, but it's worth it for the benfits of the cream. It is a little more costly than other creams but so worth the money.

    My girlfriend told me about this hand cream, and she tends to be right when she likes certain hand creams.
    It is quite pricey for a tube at $20, but she spotted them on sale for $10.
    That was when I decided to buy my own. It was perfect timing, as the weather was now changing over to spring, and my hands get incredibly dry during weather changes.
    For some people, it is quite greasy, but because my hands get so dry, I prefer it.

    I want to try the rest of their hemp like, the foot cream, lip balm, etc.

    In the summer I work in an office as a file clerk and being around paper all day my hands tend to get seriously dry. Its Hemp Hand Protector to the rescue!

    This lotion is thick and luxurious. It gives my hands the extra nourishment they sometimes crave with the help of community trade organic beeswax and the essential fatty acids found in hemp seed oil.

    It is slightly greasy on your hands at first but soaks in relatively fast. A huge plus is that it doesn't come off when you wash your hands!

    Some have complained about the scent, and the fact that it smells slightly medicinal. While I cannot fully deny this I can say that the scent seems rather mild to me and I find the subtle earthy scent to be quite pleasant.

    Overall, this is an excellent product that is well worth every penny you pay for it.

    I can honestly say I'm totally addicted to the Hemp Heroes boxed set, which is about 35.00$, but of all of them this lotion is by far the best, it's a steal at 10$ and smells amazing. Only downside is that it takes a little effort to get it all rubbed in, it's packed with essential oils, so after the rubbing in, baby's butts would be jealous. :)
