Aesop Resurrection Aromatique Hand Balm | Secondblonde

By Kelly Cakar @secondblonde

With all this extra hand-washing and anti-bac hand gels we are all using regularly there’s now even more reason to use a good quality hand cream. I’m currently using this hand balm from Aesop (which for good reason is one of their hero products) This is my “little moment” hand treatment. It’s so much more than a hand balm. The aromas seem to calm my mind making me feel relaxed.

It’s a beautiful blend of fragrant botanicals and skin-softening emollients that delivers rich hydration to your hands and cuticles. It’s non-greasy formula will make you want to keep re-applying! It’s so seductive I love it and cannot stop smelling the back of my hands when I’m using it. It’s a citrus woody scent. What’s more it can be massage into your feet at night.

The consistency is a medium thickness – I love the aluminum tooth paste style tube making application easy. It absorbs instantly leaving your skin supple and smooth improving the appearance of parched skin. It transforms my 45 year old hands when I use it.

This balm is an investment as it is pricy £21 for 75ml (they do larger sizes) however in my opinion it’s worth every penny.

Here’s the Full Ingredients (the packaging is also 100% recyclable)

Glycerin, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Stearic Acid, Cetearyl Alcohol, Ceteareth-20, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil, Citrus Nobilis (Mandarin Orange) Peel Oil, Glyceryl Stearate, Cedrus Atlantica (Cedarwood) Bark Oil, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Oil, Tocopherol, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Phenoxyethanol, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Oil, Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Seed Extract, Triticum Vulgare (Wheat) Germ Oil, Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil, Disodium EDTA, Sodium Citrate, Daucus Carota Sativa (Carrot) Root Extract, Beta-Carotene, d-Limonene, Linalool.
