In class we often talk about the "sexy" side of psychology. The things that look great and are new and intriguing to people are ultimately what get the spotlight, and this can be applied in a lot of ways to a lot of different things. It definitely got me thinking about beauty products (naturally) and I realised that a lot of my products that I love don't really get the time of day on here because they are not immaculately packaged or fun to photograph - and I'm sure we've all done this.
One thing that definitely deserves the spotlight is my Palmer's cream. It isn't in pretty packaging, it says in big letters on the front that it's for rough and dry elbows and feet and definitely falls into the un-sexy side of beauty. Regardless of all of this it's one of the best hand creams I've tried, especially if you get sore, cracked cuticles. It works amazingly on any areas that tend to get quite rough as well, such as the feet or elbows as per the packagings suggestion.
This is a very rich formula that does take awhile to sink in, but it really is to be expected with something so moisturising. It also has the classic Palmer's scent which I am completely obsessed with, which is a bonus. If you don't have anything that needs intense moisture, they have lighter creams on the market which would sink in much faster and be better for everyday hand cream needs. I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking to fix any products listed on the tube, as this most certainly will do the trick.
What is your not-so-sexy beauty favourite?
