Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream

Photo first shown on my second blog: SpritesVanity, thus the watermark
I recently joined a Bzz Campaign and had the opportunity to try out some Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream.  You can see my review at my vanity table: SpritesVanity.  I wanted to show how the product worked on my hands, though.  While my hands aren't as bad as some people's in the winter (like all of the women in my family!), it definitely helped to improve the skin.

Here, you can see my hand before I rubbed in the hand cream.  I have a blob of the product squirted out by my knuckle so you can sort of see what it looks like.  You can tell that it isn't a cream, exactly, but more of a thick gel.   That is all it takes for me to cover both hands, entirely.  A little bit really does go a long way.

The skin is dry and rather rough.  My hands certainly look older than their age.  Granted, I am a wife and a mother, so I have my hands going through hand washes a lot during the day.  I should protect my hands with gloves, but I don't like wearing them....so my hands take a beating.


This is a photo of my hand after having rubbed in the hand cream.  While the lighting is a bit different, you can see the improvement the cream has had on my hands.  The skin looks more youthful, smooth, and softer.

I have included this picture because it shows the cuticle area a bit better.  While my cuticles are still rather dry, what with it being winter, they're in better shape hand if I weren't using it.  

Is this a mind blowing, life changing hand cream that everyone needs to rush out and buy?  No, not necessarily.  Is it good and worth trying if you are curious?  Yeah.  Some other products I use and really like, though, are the Burt's Bees Lemon balm, Healthy Hoof cream, and even pure coconut oil will do the trick!
