A'kin Unscented Hand Cream Reviews

Review of A’kin Unscented Hand Cream
By Zainab C

Packaging The A’kin Unscented Intensive Hand, Nail and Cuticle Treatment comes in a handy plastic tube which is practical to carry in a handbag and is also recyclable. However, the packaging of A’kin Unscented Hand Cream does not state if it is recycled or not. The design on the packaging of this A’kin product is not particularly appealing as it looks quite traditional and dated.

Application The A’kin Unscented Hand cream was absorbed quickly, with no sticky after feel which was excellent. I also used it as a foot cream to lock in moisture. The cream left my hands feeling moisturised and nourished but I had to use quite a bit for a good result. A’kin Unscented Hand Cream also made my hands look more youthful and plumped up. When applying the cream there was an unpleasant smell that is sometimes associated with ‘unscented’ products. However, this can be rectified by adding several drops of an essential oil of your choice, if you wanted to. Some hand creams continue to moisturise and protect even after washing your hands, but unfortunately, this A’kin Hand and Nail cream did not as I could feel the cream washing off.

Ingredients Some of the ingredients of A’kin Unscented Hand Cream have some extra information about where an ingredient is from in brackets which is helpful. Most of the ingredients are not organic which may concern some people; however, the ingredients are from natural sources.

Results Overall, A’kin Unscented Hand & Nail treatment is a great multi-tasking product which nourishes and moisturises hands, nails, cuticles and even feet!

Pros: Multi - tasking product
Non sticky or greasy
A’kin Hand & Nail cream moisturises and nourishes well

Cons: The ‘unscented’ smell
All ingredients of A’kin Unscented Hand Cream are not organic
A lot of product needed moisturise hands properly
