Lavera Hand & Cuticle Cream 2-in-1 care with Organic Olive Oil and Chamomile – review

I’m currently using Lavera hands & cuticle cream with organic olive oil as a sort of “good night product”. Indeed, with a comfy pyjama, I can’t go to sleep without very hydrating hand cream and a good lip balm. When I wake up, early in the morning, here arrives the moment for the truth…
 
Lavera hand & cuticle cream 2-in-1 care is an organic-based body care product with olive oil, chamomile extract and avocado oil, and it’s particularly suitable for dry and rough skin. It should work at 360° to hydrate and nourish hands and protect cuticles and nails.
 

It promises to leave our hands supple and smooth for hours and hours. Does this Lavera 2-in-1 hand cream a good job?

Lavera hand & cuticle cream 2-in-1 care: product & packaging

The 75ml tube is slim and functional with a solid cap, but the product itself is what interests me when it comes to moisturising my dry skin.
 

Formula and scent 

Lavera hand & cuticle cream has a very light texture, despite it contains so many natural moisturising ingredients like olive extract and oil, avocado oil and shea butter. It absorbs quickly and leaves a pleasant and relaxing after-use feeling, translated into soft skin.
 
Its formulation is extremely delicate and contains no aggressive or commercial chemicals such as petrol-based elements, preservatives, parabens and synthetic dyes. The fragrance is special: it doesn’t smell of olive oil and the chamomile floral note is really lightweight, and hard to recognise. I can describe its scent as fresh and fruity, as it reminds me of apricot.
 
Lavera’s effectiveness is real: this olive oil hand cream leaves my skin immediately smooth and elastic; this sensation lasts very long, I notice it when I wake up (after 6 hours) and even after a wash. My cuticles remain hydrated and healthy-looking. I always wear nail care products, this is why I can’t say a lot about Lavera’s action on my nails.

PROS:

  • it hydrates,
  • it’s non-greasy,
  • delicate,
  • effective and long-lasting,
  • certified vegan and organic,
  • cruelty-free,
  • it’s absorbed quickly,
  • it has a nice fragrance.
CON:
  • distribution.

Lavera 2in1 care hand & cuticle cream with organic olive oil has a shifting price. It costs £4.95 in the UK and is available on Amazon, but it’s also available in other online stores. For example, I’ve found it at Ecco-Verde, a recent discovery, for a lower price. You know what I think: hydration above all and one must take advantage of nighttime to restore it when our skin regenerates… 
 
Do I recommend it? Yes, especially to those who often skip hand creams because dislike having something slippery on the palm of their hands.
