AVON Moisture Therapy Soothing Oatmeal Hand Cream

So here I am right after my introduction, wanted to start off with a product that I used. Avon Moisture Therapy soothing oatmeal hand cream for dry, itchy skin. 

First of all, I have an Avon representative in my office who leaves the campaign books in my office cafe. And I am so regular to pick the first copies of those books, whether I buy or not doesn't matter. So, when the situation was like that, one of the campaign book had an exciting offer which is posted in the back cover of it. That was this cream for $0.99 only. And obviously I gave up and had to put an order for it. And it took me around 2 weeks to get it was another story. Anyways, that's how I got his product. 

I've been using this product for quite some time now and I have to say that this cream is now a ritual for me. Everyday I go to office, I switch on my lappa (well that's how my kid refers a laptop, and I got used to it), before the Ctrl+Alt+Delete comes up, run to heat up the milk in the kitchen for my cereal, grab some water, come back to my cube to see the C+A+D. By now, you would have guessed how beaten up my system is :) Anyways, once I am back, I use a generous amount of this cream to soften my dry itchy skin. Here is the before and after pictures. 



The before picture shows dry flakes and wrinkly skin which looks not so good. And the after picture had clearly treated my skin in a right way. Skin looks soft and supple. I've been using this product for around 2 months or so. But you see, I still have some dry flakes in my before picture. Well, I had lot more dry skin before. I didn't wanted to ridicule everyone by posting that :) So it definitely had improved my skin. Coming to the quantity, I reapply the cream 2 to 3 times during my work hours. And still a little bit is left in that tube. So that's a good sign too. I have oily skin on my face and it is really hard for me to keep my hands away from my face. Obviously, I don't want to use oily fingers for that. So that's another one I usually look on a hand cream. If you look at the picture, my after skin looks shiny. However I don't feel it like a oily skin.  This cream gets absorbed pretty quickly. The shine doesn't get transferred to other objects. So no marks on my keyboard or mouse, or even on the monitor for the days I go crazy at work :)

I will not say that this product changes your hands so soft that you yourself cannot recognize it. Well, that's never gonna happen right :) I will have to say its a decent product that you can use it without abusing your purse. I mean I've used it for almost 50 days, 2 or 3 times a day and I still have some cream left in there. And it costs less than a dollar.  Not many products in the market do that for such money.To sum it up, I liked this cream and I use it regularly. So I surprised my Avon representative by ordering another tube of the same moisture therapy line. But I wanted to try other variants too, so I opted for vitamin treatment. However, I had to pay $1.99 this time, this one as well on a discount sale. It is very rare for me to buy a full-priced product. And I always feel an itch when I do so :) See you all pretty soon..
