Natural Being Manuka Hand and Body Cream Reviews

Review of Natural Being Manuka Hand and Body Cream
By Sandra C.

Packaging: Natural Being Manuka Hand and Body Cream is packed in a recycled plastic tube which makes this cream light to travel. I like the simple packaging and I hope they will change the design so that it is even lighter to carry around.

Scent: When I first squeezed the Natural Being Manuka Hand and Body Cream
on my palm, the smell was extremely strong that I had to quickly rub the cream off. The fragrance is reminiscent of honey but not in a good way. It is so strong that I now cannot wear it before going to bed. I don’t know if it’s my problem that I always find any skincare products containing honey smell disgusting such as L’occitane Honey Harvest face cream. The good thing is the smell does vanish in a while.

Ingredients: There are actually a lot of lovely ingredients in Natural Being Products especially in Natural Being Manuka Hand and Body Cream which contains Jojoba seed oil, olive oil, Manuka Oil which is renounced for its antibacterial properties and Vitamin E is a powerful preservative. No wonder there is no trace of parabens, phenoxyethanol, phthalates and other harsh chemicals.

Result: It is such a shame that the smell destroyed Natural Being Manuka Hand and Body Cream which was packed with so many lovely ingredients in such a reasonable price. The texture is good and the light cream formula was absorbed by my skin quickly without feeling dry for a long time. I had a bad allergy on my legs this afternoon. As this cream is on my desk, so I quickly put this cream on the rash or I would scratch it until it bleeds. It actually calmed down the rash and the itch was gone within few minutes. That is really amazing. I wish they would have a line of unscented face and body cream as I am still struggling if I will put up with the smell and keep using it.


Pros:
Texture is light and was quickly absorbed.
Price is very reasonable.
It is filled with lots of organic and natural ingredients.

Cons:
The scent is awfully strong.
