Les Mains Hand Cream Gift Set

This is a fine hand cream. It works well (it's a little greasy but not horrible) and it smells great (Bal d'Afrique is an amazing scent, though it fades quickly). However, its packaging is annoying (comes in a pressurized tube that basically pushes out lotion unless the cap is securely on) and it's insanely overpriced–something that I wouldn't mind if it weren't for all the negative aspects. I know you want to get this b/c it's Byredo, but trust me, Maison Margiela's hand cream is 100x better (and no this is not sponsored at all). Save yourself the headache and skip this product.

I don’t know who shipped the product, but my hand cream came opened and used. It didn’t come in any packaging and did not have a protective seal at the nozzle. It already had dents and the bottom of the hand cream was bent to push out more cream. Very unsanitary. I smelled it in store a while back and would’ve loved to try it. The picture you see is exactly how it came in a big cardboard box.
