Wouldn't it be nice...Jurlique Rose Hand Cream Review.

Here's another review post for you all! I received this product as a free sample through a great website called What's In My Handbag. This website is a new way of discovering beauty products. Basically anyone can upload an image of what's in their handbag detailing their favourite products with people like presenter Lisa Snowdon, Harriet Vine who is co-founder of Tatty Devine jewellery, and Lauren Stevenson, PR Director for my-wardrobe.com amongst many others who have uploaded their bags and shared their favourite beauty products. There are also some great beauty articles such as a piece by makeup artist Aly Hazlewood on 'Fingers vs. Brushes' when applying makeup. The topics for these articles are also posted on their Facebook page with everyone able to join the 'Beauty Concierge' discussion.

The sample Jurlique Rose Hand Cream came from the 'Try' section on the WINH website. This section enables you to apply to receive a sample size product from one of the Editor Picks handbags. You aren't guaranteed to get the sample but you instead register for the chance to. I was lucky on my first attempt and was picked to receive the 'Try' of that week!

The product came in really nice, simple packaging
The personalised label was a nice touch!

The sample size product itself
So far I do like this product. The hand cream is really moisturising and it's all natural which is always nice to have in a product! The only thing I'm not that keen on is the smell. Whilst some may love the rose smell it rather reminds me of my Grandmother who used to have rose scented products and pot pourri in her house, so unfortunately it therefore reminds me of an older generation! I've have found though that I've got used to the smell more as I've used more of the product. I also found it a little greasy when first applied, but if you wait quite a while it does full soak into the skin leaving them feeling so soft and smooth. I have also been wearing it at night and I wake up with my hands looking and feeling lovely!

I think it's a great idea of What's In My Handbag and I'm definitely going to keep entering the 'Try' products as I do always love trying new products! I'd also recommend, if you're interested in beauty and by different products to take a look at the website. When you sign up you get your own profile where you can save products you have and products you'd like to try in your 'Beauty Cabinet' and you can upload your own handbags to share your favourite products. I think the whole website is a great concept and an interesting new way of sharing beauty tips and treats! So come join me in discovering great new products on WIMH!

Bye for now :)
