"Loksitan", hand cream: reviews

Remember, as the hero of "Gone with the Wind" Rhett Butler, only looking at the hands of Scarlett O'Hara, realized that not everything is as happy as she told? Yes, our handles can tell us about us much more than we do ourselves: age changes, aggressive exposure to sunlight or low temperature regimes, household chemicals, lack of nutrition, moisturizing - and hands give out not only our age, but our way of life.

But not everything is so bad - there are means that help women to preserve the beauty and youth of the skin. Let's consider more in detail a cream for arms or hand "Loksitan", its structure, kinds and responses of buyers.

Brand History

L'Occitane en Provence - the so-called French brand, which produces cosmetics for the care of the body, face, hair. The brand was founded in Provence in 1976 by Olivier Bossan after he first produced and successfully sold rosemary essential oil. The first cosmetic product produced by Olivier was soap, brewed from natural plant ingredients. Later the production increased to the size of a factory that produces all the necessary cosmetic products: natural soap, cream, masks, oils, scrubs, shampoos, balms.

The first store opened in Provence in 1981, in 1992 - in Paris. Today, more than two thousand L'Occitane stores are open all over the world. The brand has a huge army of fans, even despite the brand's pricing policy. Customers like the stylish design of packaging, quality natural ingredients in the composition and, of course, how the hair and skin are transformed after using cosmetics.

Philosophy of "Loxitan"

"Loxitan" produces natural cosmetics with a minimum amount of synthetic substances. The brand does not use components of animal origin, except for honey and propolis. The main components of cosmetic products grow in Provence: olive, rose, lavender, peony, juniper, almonds. Karite oil, which is an active ingredient in most care products, produces in Burkina Faso.

Oils and scrubs for the body, masks and creams for the face, lip balms, shampoos, perfumes - this is not the entire list of products manufactured by TM "Loxitan". Hand cream for this brand is one of the most popular cosmetics. Natural components, extracts of plants, oils, stylish design - that's why buyers like this hand cream for this company.

The brand often produces limited collections of its best products. They are timed to any holidays or events. Pretty decorated metal boxes with mini-formats of your favorite means and ask on the dressing table. Such sets are very nice to receive as a gift or to give to your relatives. Hand cream "Loksitan" (photo you can see on the page) from the limited collection usually has a unique bright design, which in the future may not be repeated.

Charitable Foundation

In 2006 L'Occitane creates a charitable foundation that supports people with visual impairment. The labels on the packages are always duplicated by Braille. The fund also helps women from Burkina Faso to gain economic independence and make contributions to increasing the literacy of the population. Buying brand products, each of us has the opportunity to help those who need it.

Benefits of Hand Creams

No part of the body so often comes into contact with water, aggressive detergents and cleansers, sun rays, wind and frost, like hands. Of course, every woman should remember that you can not go out in the cold and windy weather without warm gauntlets, without sunscreen in the summer and do cleaning without rubber gloves.

It is unlikely that all ladies do not forget about these important rules, so often experience dryness, a sense of tightness, notice wrinkles on the skin of hands, brittle nails. It is from these problems that hand creams help. They are moisturizing, nourishing and protective. The latter create a thin film on the skin and protect it from the aggressive effects of water and household chemicals. Use it before contact with household chemicals and detergents.

Moisturizers saturate the skin with moisture, preventing dehydration, restore metabolic processes in the epithelium. Apply it during the day and before going out on the street.

Nutritional creams have a more fatty texture, they are saturated with oils and vitamins. They are not very convenient to use during the day, so it is better to apply them at night, and on top you can put on cotton gloves to enhance the effect.

It's time to take a closer look at the products of this brand and find out which LOXITAN hand cream is the best?

A pleasant light texture does not leave stickiness and grease, despite the composition, rich in shea butter.

As in the previous case, not all are satisfied with the price of the product. This cream is very nice to receive as a gift, but not everyone can afford to buy it for themselves.

Gel-cream "Verbena"

Next is a unique product from Loksitan. Hand cream "Verbena" in its consistency more like a gel, and its main qualities - matting and cooling the skin.

• Strengthening of blood circulation in tissues.
• Rid of the skin from inflammation and rashes.

The product is enriched with verbena and tapioca extract, cares for the skin of hands, and also gives it velvety opacity. The fragrance of the gel is universal, fresh, slightly citrus, suitable for both men and women. After use, the skin of the hands experiences a slight "chill" and becomes matte, which is ideal for the summer period.

• The cream quickly absorbs into the skin.
• Hands after using the product become well-groomed and beautiful.
• Stylish and very nice packaging design.
• Limited collections, which are often produced by the company, are very pleased with the fans of the brand.

• Due to the fact that the cream is very quickly absorbed, some users had to apply more funds to distribute it across the surface of the hands. Hence the uneconomic expenditure.
• The presence of silicones and several other components of inorganic origin upset lovers of natural cosmetics. Many consider the production of "Loxitan" (hand cream, shampoo and other aids) to organic cosmetics, which is incorrect, since the brand does not position itself as such.
• The high price of the product again for many is more a disadvantage, especially considering not the most economic expense of a cream.
