Can anyone recommend a good premium brand hand cream please,

[Dirtydiana]

for my mum for Christmas.

Thanks

Yes, either clarins or L'occiatane

Jurlique is also lovely. Lancome, Aveda is actually nice but doesn't come in a box. Origins not bad .... I've tried them all!!

Dr Haushkna, Clarins (the ordinary one not the age-control which is too runny IMO) and Aveda top my list!

Clarins. Apply at night and my hands are much better the next day and it does make my nails grow quicker.

L'Occitane definitely, it's the best hand cream I've ever used.

clarins

Another vote for L'Occitane. I'm allergic to the Clarins one although lots of people I know rave about it.

(But... whispers... when you are buying for yourself then Superdrug Essential Hand & Nail Cream is as good as L'Occitane and is 99p)

Clarins is my favourite.
I agree the original one as I didn't like the scent of the others.

Chanel. I use it in House of Fraser when I am waiting for the lift up to the cafe.

Its devine.

Tisserand Essential Oil Rich.

I buy loads of L'Occitane stuff, for me and others, but handcream has to be Tisserand. Smells divine.

depends on your budget, but Davina Peace is amazing and no nasties in it (eg silicones, baby oil, etc)

Thank you all for the recommendations, only use cheapish stuff myself!

If you want an industrial strength cheap version - get the Hemp one from the BodyShop. It's has a unique smell.. But it works. Popular with farmers.

a confused, did you want something cheap or premium in the end?

Miss Foodie, I want something premium. I was looking for ideas for my mum. I googled Davina Peace but couldn't find a stockist.

I think you can only buy online or from harrods - its gorgeous handcream.
all their items come gift wrapped with rose petals!

I will have a search for an online stockist, thanks.

i meant that I think you can only order online from them :)
if you want to see pics I reviewed a whole load of their products and took photos of the packaging: yumetc.blogspot.com

another vote for Clarins. I use the hand and nail treatment cream

Clarins hand and nail treatment or Aveda Hand Relief..

Definitely Clarins (not the age spot one) Really works and nice to use.

I was a sworn in blood Clarins hand cream gal until I tried Nick Lowe handcream, my hands and nails have never looked or felt better Balance Me is also very good.

weleda pomegranate is fab, and weleda skin food

Thanks again everyone, V helpful!

Another vote for Nick Lowe however This Works hand cream is amazing, def better than L'Ocittaine imho.
