Soap & Glory: Hand Food

Soap & Glory are anything but modest while making the claim that their hand cream is “the most astonishing hand cream ever.”

It might be a bit bold to consider a hand cream “astonishing”, but nonetheless Hand Food is the best hand cream I’ve ever used.

It does everything it says on the tin, as the Brits would say.

It’s non-greasy, hydrating, and smells like heaven (in my humble opinion).

I tend to cup my hands over my nose every time I put it on just to get an extra whiff of the scent.

It contains various oils such as grape seed, macadamia, sweet almond, and shea.

I’m somewhat confused because it also claims to contain marshmallow. I’m not sure if that’s their cute way of saying it’s white and smells sweet, or if this is an actual ingredient. Marshmallow is essentially whipped sugar, so maybe sugar is used to give this awesome cream its whipped consistency.

I wish this were a little cheaper in the U.S., considering how quickly we tend to go through hand cream. Regardless, I’m reminded of how much I love it every time I use it.
