Listen to the box - Good for you!

I can't find a con to this set. It is absolutely amazing and has really surprised me. I didn't expect to fall in love with it, more or less use it a second, third, and fourth time. My hands look so much better than they did a month ago. You wouldn't believe they were mine if you saw them a month ago!

Use

This is a wonderful set to repair dry, damaged hands when nothing else will. If you find your cuticles in need of repair, your nails looking unhealthy, and the skin on your hands feeling dry and cracked, this set is sure to turn the problem around. After only one use I can already notice a difference in my hands and nails which is remarkable for a product that I didn't exactly expect to work for me. In this set you get one tub of smoothing hand & cuticle buffer and a bottle of hand cream. It's all you'll ever need after trying it!

Texture / Consistency / Thickness / Viscosity

Buffer:

The buffer is made up of all sorts of oils that are very thin, yet somehow extremely rich at the same time. Not so much greasy, but very, very penetrating and moisturizing. It is also made up of organic sugars that are a lot smaller than one would find in a body scrub. Very similar to that of table sugar, but seems to dissolve much more slowly somehow. Together it produces a gentle scrub that gets rid of rough dead skin and dirt, without damaging the healthy skin.

Hand cream:

Creamy and velvety! Feels a little bit thinner than most lotions, and you don't need a whole lot to get the job done. Little greasy feeling at first, but penetrates and locks into the skin within about ten minutes or so. Great right before bed or after you've done dishes for far too long.

Taste / Aroma

I personally loved the smell. I wasn't too excited when I read the reviews of others saying that it was unpleasant. A friend of mine told me it was similar to cough syrup, so I got worried. But the minute I opened the box I could smell the raspberry and I fell in love. Reminds me of these sugar cookie bars my grandmother used to make with raspberries and vanilla beans. I don't know how anyone could dislike the scent of milk, vanilla and baked raspberry!

The scent is strong and sweet, and it does linger after use, but it isn't enough to give someone a headache at all. It wears off after a few hours if you're washing your hands a lot. However, if you are not doing that then you can enjoy the scent all day if you wanted to. I applied this hand cream before work and I could still smell it at lunch time at work.

Performance

Buffer:

The performance of this product was great. My hands felt amazingly soft after usage but didn't feel sore or scratched. The oils made a significant impact on my cuticles, nails and ski of my hand. I have used it once last week and once this week. I also used it the week before as I was trying some of my cousin's set. My nails have grown so much stronger and my hands just look transformed. I have always had trouble with my cuticles breaking and peeling, but not anymore!

Hand cream:

I have to order another one of these hand cream tubes to keep in my car because I find myself reaching for this stuff when I'm not home. Once you apply it your hands are good all day. When I forget to apply It I can totally feel it. I don't know how I ever went without it!

Packaging

Both bottles comes in the box shown on the product page. The box is about a centimeter taller than the largest bottle, which is the velveteen hand cream bottle. On the cover are the two products inside portrayed exactly as they are along with some green grass and a tiny cow out in the grass. It's a really cute package and in no way has sexual words/terms, as this is not an item intended for any sort of sexual use.

Instructions are shown on the tub of buffer, but not on the velveteen hand cream. I believe this is because I would think most everyone knows how to use lotion. To use the buffer you simply stir it around a bit to make sure that the oils are distributed evenly, take a spoon* and scoop up as much settled sugar as you can. Rub it into your hands, taking care to focus on cuticles and nails. You do this for roughly 30 seconds, but I prefer to let the oil sit on my hands for about 2 minutes. After that, rinse it off with warm water.

When you are done doing that, pat dry and add your velveteen hand cream. You truly only need about a dime-sized amount, if that. I like to do all this at the end of the day, before bed. I find that once I am done, it is best to put on my spa gloves and let the product do its magic overnight.

The tub of buffer closes nicely and does not leak so long as you wipe it up and close it tightly. It's pretty hard not to with the bottle's medicine-style structure. Really reminds me of the kind of bottle you would get antibiotics in. The hand cream tube closes easily and tightly and you have to physically use your hands to unsnap the cap. Therefore, neither of the bottles leak.

*The spoon was broken when I received it. It was very thin and similar to the kind of spoon you may use to sample some food if you are having a cooking party. My friend's spoon was broken as well so I guess these are just basically going to be broken no matter what.

Experience

I have definitely had a great experience with this set. I love both products and one could say that this set is an essential part of my beauty routine each week. This set makes going to the spa for a manicure a thing of the past. You can have the entire spa manicure experience at home and most likely get results that are just as good if not more than that. I stand by my word when I say that this product is much better than you would have expected. It will surprise you!
Follow-up commentary
This product set is still fantastic. My hands have never looked better and my nails are just so healthy! I absolutely love this set and you will too!
