Ciao!"
John, Chester
"I love this! Bought on the back of a reviewer on the Balance Me website who said they use it at night as it's the only thing that unclogs blackeads. I use a tiny amount, warmed between fingers and spread all over my face at night. It's absorbed easily and leaves no residue. So far, pores seem great the next day. Very soothing too. Great for combination skin AND dry patches too."
Janet, Potters Bar
"I received a tester of this and when using on my hands it soaks in extremely well and is not greasy in any way like some hand lotions which when you touch anything thing after applying you cover it in lotion as well. Has a nice subtile smell which is not overpowering or to strong. "
James, Kirriemuir
"The best hand cream ever. I like because its not perfumed.It helps to keep my really dry hands soft & it helps keep my cuticles soft.I use it every day & every time i have washed my hands.I would recommend this product to everyone."
Karen, Fareham
"Lovely light fragrance, and a little goes a long way so it is quite economical to use. Leaves hands feeling soft and well-moisturised, I will buy this product again."
Lesley, Much Wenlock
"The only handcream I have ever tried which works. Many handcreams claim to be rapidly absorbed or non-greasy and now for the first time it's actually true, the cream soaks straight in making your hands feel like silk, therefore can be used during the day. The smell is a gorgeous subtle natural smell. I will be getting some more straight away to make sure I don't run out, and I will be trying some other Akin products too."
S, Wisbech
"I didn't receive the Free Gift with my order for the Protective Day Moisturiser. I assumed it would arrive eventually but it still hasn't arrived unfortunately."

I have brought this for my mum and she likes it.I also like it because it is unscented.I would recommend this product to anybody wanting an unscented hand cream."
Karen, Fareham
"This absorbent cream feels nice and refreshing to tired hands when first applied. It's gives long lasting moisture and smells great. No draw backs, it's straight to the point and completely caring. "
Paula, Birmingham
"I chose this as one of my products from this months blogging parcel as the eczema on my legs always seems to get worse at this time of year, mainly the backs of my knees. I currently use a steroid cream prescribed by the doctor but obviously this has side effects so I was hoping this would be an alternative.

"As soon as I smelt it I knew it reminded me of another product I’ve had in the past, and my silly brain didn’t click on that it was tea tree (it was The Body Shops tea tree moisturiser I used to use), that is how bad I am at scents. You can read more about it here:

"This is already a favourite! I am very sensitive to hand creams as most of them make my eyes water and sometimes make my hands itch. This one was recommended by my daughter, and now I have half of one of hers in my bedroom upstairs and the new one downstairs, as I can really and truly use it at any time of day, not just at bedtime. It's brilliant!!"
Karen, Glasgow
"I use it daily before leaving home. It nourishes deeply even the chappest hands. I recommend this product to everyone, mostly in winter when our hands suffer more from cold climate. Excellent quality! "

MOOM Foot Care Foot Spa Renewal Cream
"I was thinking it would be a creamy thick lotion that would sort out my dry and cracked feet. Well it’s not that, but what it is I like very much.
Alva Foot Lotion is a light, thin cream that rubs into your feet easily – you don’t need much as it goes a long way. It has a slightly medicated (as in pepperminty, or antiseptic) smell to it, although I know there is nothing but natural ingredients in it, and makes the feet tingle as you rub it in. It’s the manuka oil and other all-natural essential oils doing their work on my tired feet, looking after my skin and helping to sort any problem areas.
I especially liked using this lotion after running. Apart from the action of rubbing my feet stimulating the blood flow (I think the circulation in my feet must be a bit rubbish coz they’re always cold and after exercise I often get pins and needles), the cream felt like it was doing some sort of healing – making my feet feel fresh and ready to walk me around for the rest of the day.

"This is an excellent product. Barrier hand creams help to stop the hands from chapping and drying out.
A must for busy people who have to keep washing their hands."
Andrea, Leeds
"I have a lot of hard skin on my feet and this definitely works. I use it after a bath, massage it in, and then wear little cotton socks for about 15 minutes to make sure it sinks in. Can not be done instantly as it does take a few minutes to be absorbed, but is worth it.Compared to other foot care products, it is excellent quality and it does work."
Karen, Poole
"I have terrible dry hands particularly at ths time of year and at work my hands are often in and out of water. I find this cream is very soothing and has a lovely smell also rubs in easily. Best time to use it is just before bed. Nice to put in a christmas stocking for a trea."

Ruth, Whitland
"I bought this hand cream as a gift but wanted to smell it before i reluctantly gave it away. Unfortunately a small amount of hand cream escaped from the tube which i had no other choice other than to rub it into my parched hands. It smelt lovely and absorbed fabulously into my well receiving hands. I would highly recommend it, but i would suggest if you do purchase one as a gift get your self one at the same time.At this price why not."
Ruth, Narberth
"Wow! well I'd been using so far some gel my dermatologist gave me but it would make me skin completely rigid leaving a very unpleasant feel. This cream treated the dermatitis straight away! after just one application was skin was happier! It doesn't smell great but I don't really care as long as it does what it says on the tin! Really impressed and pleased!"
Barbara, Guildford
"This is a fantastic hand cream - I love it! It's very moisturising without being greasy and since it's fragrance free it's great to use both night and day. I've tried quite many natural hand creams and this is the one I keep coming back to - it's the best!"

Lynn, Glasgow
"You know how it is when you find that new beauty product you find you can't live without? For me, that product is A'kin Lavender, Geranium & Jojoba hand and nail creme. I've used so many different brands before, L'Occitane, Udderly Smooth, Aveeno, Molton Brown, Liz Earle, etc, but got so fed up with all the nasties contained in the products. Having tried other natural hand creams I have been so disappointed at the greasiness of them. THIS HAND CREAM IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT!! I have only been using it for a short time but it is fabulous! It is the kind of cream you can wear day and night. It sinks in well and after a couple of minutes is totally absorbed. It also feels like it lasts even after hand washing. I love, love, LOVE it! I'll definitely be back for more."
Jo, Milton Keynes
"My hands get very dry and I've found it hard to find a decent hand cream as they are often greasy or full of chemicals - or both. But this one is fantastic. One application lasts well, it rehydrates my hands and it's excellent value for money, I love it!"

Karen, St. Albans

Susan, Cardiff
"A nice handy size to carry around and seems to do the job. My only criticism is I don't like the smell, it isn't fresh smelling, however I do accept that is personal taste."
Debbie, Okehampton
"Really lovely. This hand cream is one of the best. Now that the weather is getting colder, my hands are becoming more cracked and dry. Thanks to A'kin hand cream it's now soft again, thank you."
Jackie, London
"I found this cream to be lovely. I just love creams that sink in your skin and don`t leave any greasy residue. So five stars for this."
Carolyne, Portland
"I love this hand cream because it is effective (I firmly believe that you shouldn't notice how good a hand-cream is until you stop using it! If you realise your hands are dry and crispy when you stop, then you know it was doing its job well!).
The A'Kin hand cream isn't oily or greasy. It is easily absorbed into my hands and with essential oils and added vitamin B5 and E, it really does help to protect your hands from signs of age.

It's fantastic that its made of only natural ingredients....it has a lovely subtle almondy smell.
Only hand cream i'll ever use from now on. Love it!"
Susan, Romford
"I received a sample of this cream which came in particularly handy. I had purchased a tri-enzyme wash which reacted with my skin leaving it very red and dry. Thankfully I had this sample and put it on my face and instantly, yes instantly, felt a calming effect. I used what I had left of the sampl"
Jill, Cramlington
"I had been using a prescribed ointment for contact dermatitis - since using the Akin Hand product alongside their other products I no longer need the prescribed ointment"
Helen, Peterborough

Debra, Hove
"I have sensitive skin and Akin Unscented Intensive Hand, Nail & Cuticle Treatment is the only hand cream I can use and it smells lovely too."
Zoe, Wales
"I've been using Akin Unscented Intensive Hand, Nail & Cuticle Treatment for a while now and find it invaluable for my dry and chapped hands during the winter months. I especially like the fact that it unscented, as so many other 'natural' handcreams I've tried in the past have strong overpowering scents."
Moira, Cambs
"Akin Lavender, Geranium & Jojoba Hand, Nail & Cuticle Cream is a great product. It smells lovely and absorbs into your skin well and doesn't leave it feeling greasy. It leaves your hands feeling soft and moisturised."
Vivien, Leicester
"My hands are very dry as I wash them all the time. so I'm very fussy about my hand cream and constantly search for any new hand creams on the market, this Akin Lavender, Geranium & Jojoba Hand cream has to be one of the best, it absorbs into my skin very quickly, not sticky at all(unlike lots in the market), smells amazing, will def be repurchasing this product, which says it all."
Bing, Greenwich
"My hands get very dry, especially in winter, and I have searched all over for a hand cream which really works. Akin Unscented Intensive Hand, Nail & Cuticle Treatment does. It simply does the job, where so many hand creams fail. And of course it contains no nasty chemicals to irritate. Although it is called unscented, it has a very pleasant, mild sort of sandalwoody scent from the essential oils it contains."
Beth R.
"Akin Lavender, Geranium & Jojoba Hand, Nail & Cuticle Cream is the best hand cream I have ever used. It is moisurising without being greasy and leaving me unable to open doors. It smells really lovey and pure. I tried the unscented version and really didn't like the smell, but this scented version is just gorgeous."
Carolyn, Ramsbottom
"I was sent Akin Unscented Intensive Hand, Nail & Cuticle Treatment as free gift from my pure, its a lovely addition to my handbag and it gets lots of use! Love it!"
Sarah, Southampton
"This is a perfectly ok handcream that feels nice, and smells quite nice. However, it's not really a 'barrier' cream - doesn't last that long and disappears as soon as you wash your hands. It's ok but I don't think I'd buy it again."
Melissa, Crediton
"I tried this as a sample. It's a very thick cream and I thought it would be greasy but it actually absorbs really well. I wanted to try it for my dermatitis and it's probably too soon to say whether it has made it any better, but it certainly hasnt made it any worse!"
Helen, Ipswich
"A quite ok everyday body cream, especially in winter since it's thick and moisturising. The smell is very strong though so you might want to try another body lotion/cream if you're sensitive to strong smells! I won't buy again because of the smell."
Jessica
"The smell is a bit strange. I think it might be the manuka honey but, it is very rich and my skin does not itch anymore. Leaves my skin soft and silky."
Jackie, London
"poor product for me made my skin come out in pimples and blotches. No good for sensitive skin. No use by date on product so dont know if it had gone 'bad' , or if its just my intolerant skin."

"Early days but really hoping this product helps my hands as i suffer with hand dermatitus."
Kimberley, Leeds
"Really lovely. This hand cream is one of the best. Now that the weather is getting colder, my hands are becoming more cracked and dry. Thanks to A'kin hand cream it's now soft again, thank you."
Jackie, London
"I found this cream to be lovely. I just love creams that sink in your skin and don`t leave any greasy residue. So five stars for this."
Carolyne, Portland
"I love this hand cream because it is effective (I firmly believe that you shouldn't notice how good a hand-cream is until you stop using it! If you realise your hands are dry and crispy when you stop, then you know it was doing its job well!).
The A'Kin hand cream isn't oily or greasy. It is easily absorbed into my hands and with essential oils and added vitamin B5 and E, it really does help to protect your hands from signs of age.

"I received a sample of this cream which came in particularly handy. I had purchased a tri-enzyme wash which reacted with my skin leaving it very red and dry. Thankfully I had this sample and put it on my face and instantly, yes instantly, felt a calming effect. I used what I had left of the sampl"

Zoe, Wales
"I've been using Akin Unscented Intensive Hand, Nail & Cuticle Treatment for a while now and find it invaluable for my dry and chapped hands during the winter months. I especially like the fact that it unscented, as so many other 'natural' handcreams I've tried in the past have strong overpowering scents."
Moira, Cambs

Vivien, Leicester
"My hands are very dry as I wash them all the time. so I'm very fussy about my hand cream and constantly search for any new hand creams on the market, this Akin Lavender, Geranium & Jojoba Hand cream has to be one of the best, it absorbs into my skin very quickly, not sticky at all(unlike lots in the market), smells amazing, will def be repurchasing this product, which says it all."
Bing, Greenwich
"My hands get very dry, especially in winter, and I have searched all over for a hand cream which really works. Akin Unscented Intensive Hand, Nail & Cuticle Treatment does. It simply does the job, where so many hand creams fail. And of course it contains no nasty chemicals to irritate. Although it is called unscented, it has a very pleasant, mild sort of sandalwoody scent from the essential oils it contains."
Beth R.
"Akin Lavender, Geranium & Jojoba Hand, Nail & Cuticle Cream is the best hand cream I have ever used. It is moisurising without being greasy and leaving me unable to open doors. It smells really lovey and pure. I tried the unscented version and really didn't like the smell, but this scented version is just gorgeous."
Carolyn, Ramsbottom
"I was sent Akin Unscented Intensive Hand, Nail & Cuticle Treatment as free gift from my pure, its a lovely addition to my handbag and it gets lots of use! Love it!"

Pippa, Godalming
"good alternative to steroid cream"
Pamela, Lutterworth
"Not too keen on the smell, but good for dry hands."
Rebecca, Leeds
"nice but after reading the ingredients, it gave me the impression that the product is not that natural after all?"
Kagan, Istanbul
"This is a perfectly ok handcream that feels nice, and smells quite nice. However, it's not really a 'barrier' cream - doesn't last that long and disappears as soon as you wash your hands. It's ok but I don't think I'd buy it again."
Melissa, Crediton
"ok"
Emma, Newton Abbot
"I tried this as a sample. It's a very thick cream and I thought it would be greasy but it actually absorbs really well. I wanted to try it for my dermatitis and it's probably too soon to say whether it has made it any better, but it certainly hasnt made it any worse!"
Helen, Ipswich
"Good value for money."
Claire, Bishops Stortford
"The cream has a nice consistancy on your hands, just very small."
Kimberley, Leeds
"A bit greasy"
Darren, Solihull
"A quite ok everyday body cream, especially in winter since it's thick and moisturising. The smell is very strong though so you might want to try another body lotion/cream if you're sensitive to strong smells! I won't buy again because of the smell."
Jessica
"Lovely hand cream and easily absorbed"
Jane, Tongham, Farnham
"The smell is a bit strange. I think it might be the manuka honey but, it is very rich and my skin does not itch anymore. Leaves my skin soft and silky."
Jackie, London
"* As a face cream
* People with dry skin which is caused by winter.
* Did not remove redness "
Mia Andrea, Oslo
"Did not think this did any good to my hands as they are very dry."
Viv, Midhurst
"poor product for me made my skin come out in pimples and blotches. No good for sensitive skin. No use by date on product so dont know if it had gone 'bad' , or if its just my intolerant skin."
