So, I present you hand Balm "Protection against cold" from Yves Rocher.
Why such choice?
My problems with skin of hands began not yesterday. Within fifteen years I worked in medicine, and talc for gloves, disinfectants and alcohol made the dirty deed: skin of hands constantly dries, is shelled, happens, pulls together it up to pain.
It is clear, that I tried a set of means for moistening, food and restoration of skin of hands. Something works better, something – not really, and still I am in search of "magic" means.
Having seen on the website Yves Rocher hand Balm "Protection against cold" and having read responses, decided to get it, hoping that the effect by all means will be. But … However, about everything one after another.
About packing
This means is not in a tuba, and a round jar with a cover that in itself is not especially habitual for the cosmetic products intended for care of skin of hands.
The design of a jar is sustained in warm colors, it is pleasant to look at packing. The cover is turned off, cream is protected by a foil.
On a reverse side of capacity there is a sticker in Russian on which summary of means is stated: the method of application is specified and components of plant origin are stated. Here – information on the producer and the importer.
What guarded me at once? First, what here is told about structure very briefly, secondly, that the means expiration date is not specified. Or rather, there is an inscription "Is suitable to: see packing", but how many I did not twist a jar, so found nothing!
About structure
The short list impresses because in it only vegetable components are specified. I will not be engaged in their transfer as all is visible in the picture.
But there is also other party of a medal rather of structure. The complete list of ingredients is hidden behind a sticker on a jar cover.
And here, alas, picture not so iridescent. Yes, there is a lot of vegetable components, but also there is enough "chemistry". Only parabens three pieces! Here from Yves Rocher I did not expect it in any way!
About means
Hand balm "Protection against cold" represents quite dense oily weight. He reminds me house oil or the thickened sour cream – both color, and consistence is characteristic. Only the aroma of a coco and still some perfumery fragrance say that it – not "natures a product".
By the way, the aroma behaves quite strange: being in a box, cream distinctly smells of a coco, but it is worth beginning it to rub, the aroma "is stratified", there is a mix of smells, pleasant which you will not call. It lasts while you apply means to skin, then the coco returns. The smell of cream is pleasant not to all: my family begins to show discontent when I use balm.
About action
Balm is rubbed not at once – it is necessary to make efforts.
Long it is not absorbed: skin looks so as if it is broken off by a thin oil film. I do not know, glycerin or karnaubsky wax is guilty of it, or both of them, but the fact are the fact. Naive, I thought that time means carries the name "Protection against Cold", it will need to be put before going outside. But it is impossible to make it: because of oiliness not to put on either a glove, or a mitten! And the feeling of a film disturbs. For this reason I decided to be limited to drawing means for the night.
The result did not impress: skin is not nourished and not moistened properly. In the morning it begins to dry and "demand" putting cream. For me it is a nonsense: with the former cream bought for 50 rubles it was not!
Alas, but "Protection against cold" from Yves Rocher I can tell nothing good about hand Balm. And in my opinion, so high cost – 390 rubles for 50 ml – it does not justify at all!
