The Original Lady Lamb -

I think I have a bit of a hand cream problem – I’ve got way too many! I seem to have them dotted around the house as well as one in each of my bags but I do use them all so I feel it’s justified! Lots of them absorb at different rates and they all smell different so I’ve got one for every occasion, whether I’m in a rush and need it to sink in quickly or I need some intense moisture for winter hands.

Anyway, the latest addition to my collection is the Lanolips Rose Balm Intense which contains more than 95% natural ingredients, including lanolin which is a natural substance coming from shorn sheep’s wool. The balm has a light, delicate scent and actually sinks in surprisingly quickly seeing as it is ‘intense’. It just leaves my hands feeling slightly tacky for a few minutes after applying rather than leaving them greasy which is nice. It is really great at moisturising and I also like using it to keep my nails and cuticles in good condition.
