it has a nice slight smell to it and feels so nice to rub on your hands, keeps them moist, would need to reapply every couple of hours or so but thats fine for me. the metal tube also feels really nice and fancy to use lol. def out of my price range tho, but if you want to treat yourself, go for it

Reviews
I loved the moisturizer at first, but I have allergies and when ever I used it I get itchy throat and start sneezing. The cream is very fragranced and it's not very pleasant.
I am having a bit of a love affair with some Antipodes products lately and this is one of them. I do feel the price is up there, however I am only using this on my hands and feel it will last a very long time so for this reason I am happy to pay. I have very busy hands working in retail and a lot of hand washing as well so I really do appreciate a good hand cream. This cream is a rich formula which smells beautiful. Even though it contains avocado oil it is not the least bit oily or greasy. It absorbs so nicely and leaves your hands feeling and smeling beautiful. I also make sure I rub some into my cuticles to keep them nice. The tube is a very attractive pink colour which is easy to find in your hand bag. I take it everywhere I go and share it as well.
I really like this hand and body cream, firstly because of the devine smell of blackcurrant and hibiscus flower. Also because it is so rich and creamy, it feels like a real treat to put it on my skin and my dry legs just soak it up. While it is super moisturising with avocado oil, it doesn't leave a greasy residue. The only thing I don't like is the packaging, it's ok at the start but as you get through it it's not nice to have to squeeze the hard metal tube.
Tips: Apply after the shower especially on extra dry areas such as legs & elbows. It's wonderful for dry hands & you don't need to wear a fragrance with it.
I got this hand cream as a free gift from fly buys. I have started using hand cream a lot recently because I work in a clothing store that has wool items which dries out my hands and this is amazing. It makes my hands feels soft and moisturised without a greasy feel. It smells quite strong but its a nice berry smell so its all good. The tube is rather large and seems to be lasting a long time as a little goes a long way.
I got this hand cream in the Karizma Wellbeing Mother's Day Special. The hand cream right from the first use makes hand feel soft and smooth. Like any hand cream however you do need to apply it more than once during the day to feel that way all day.
I also really loved the smell. It was really interesting that from further away the berry smell was strong and up close the hibiscus smell was strong.
It is an absolutely lovely, natural and non-chemical feeling hand cream. This brand is also organic and made in Wellington which is awesome.
The packaging was also interesting being more metal compared to the usual plastics. I'm not sure if I liked it but I did like that they were doing something a bit different.
When I finish this tube of hand cream I hope to buy another one. I really like this one, but I'm also quite keen to try the rest of the range.
With the flash rosy pink packaging and the fragrance to die for, I instantly fell in love with it the first time I used it. This cream smells amazing. This is the best smelling hand and body cream ever. It smells like berries and blackcurrant and I like to apply it several times a day, not because I need moisturization but I just love the smell. Small quantity of the cream is enough as it spreads very easily on the skin. I found the tube lasted for a couple of months. The consistency of the cream is very thick and rich but still when applied, it doesn't feel greasy or sticky or leave any oily residue. I like its packaging (aluminium tubes and not plastic) as I think its very environment friendly. I recommend everyone to try this shiny pink delightful treat! :)
I loved this hand cream, and personally found the smell is divine! It is strongly scented and a thick cream but I found it absorbed relatively easily. I did need to reapply fairly regularly, particularly when in an air conditioned office. My only complaint is the metal tube packaging - made it difficult to squeeze the cream out and the lip of the tube was rough which detracted from the experience of using it.
Tips: Could be a hit or miss product to buy as a gift given the strong fragrance!
I first discovered this hand cream when I smelt this incredible, rich aroma when visiting my sister. She kindly lent me some Antipodes Joyful Hand and Body Cream so I would stop sniffing her! If I had to describe this moisturiser in one word, it would be luscious. It is packed full of Avocado oil for our poor, hard working hands which means it feels very rich and soothing. It takes only a few minutes to sink in and does not leave your hands feeling greasy.
Tips: A little goes a long way!!
I got this as a gift and I couldn't love it more. The smell lasts for ages and smells absolutely heavenly. Only downside I can think of is its not as moisturising as other hand creams I've used but thats not at all a problem for me and the scent definitely makes up for it.
Tips: Use in morning to smell great all day
