Shea Butter

just got to know about L'Occitane June this year

when Ms. Joyce, my lecturer for F6 and F9 brought me and yan ying

out for lunch to thank us for helping her out

and also gifted us each a Shea Butter Hand Cream from L'Occitane.

(Thank you Ms Joyce :))

err, actually i got to try this hand cream once from Hannah during SAM in Taylors.

i checked it out once then, but did not get it coz it was pricey and i had no income then.

and i NEVER believe in hand creams.

coz nothing ever helped my Eczema.

If you've known me since High school, you'd have known about my horrible Eczema

my hand peels like crazy..

and is super super dry..

my mom always say

"Ling, if someone were to compare my hands and my mom's they would surely say i worked more,

coz my hands were really dry :P"

i also hated those thumbprint machines!

i had to try like 30 times before it'll ever detect my thumbprint or they'll just ask me to return when my skin gets better =="

And and...those who know me knows that i do not use cosmetics

and hence take no notice/interest in cosmetic shops like body shop, L'Occitane..etc.

not until i tried the Shea Butter Hand Cream.

it was so effective i had to do some research on the ingredient that is in that hand cream.
