have you ever had a product so good there’s just never going to be an alternative?
lord have I tried to find one cheaper on my current budget but it’s no way, absolutely not.
this one ticks all my boxes in clean beauty. it is functionally perfect, vegan, organic, sustainable and smells like omg 😨
picture this. the year is 2020. lockdown was a nonsense I had been stuck in this post-millennial transience (aka no home) and ended up on my dads sofa. nightmare guys. anyway so lack of bed and privacy aside, I got stuck back into bodycare as nomadic life can sometimes rob you of the time and funds to properly look after yourself.
i had always wanted to try products from aveda but hadn’t quite managed to justify it to myself. but 2020 was the year. I didn’t even have my own freaking bedroom and I needed something so comforting.
let me just show you the before and after:
my crusty hand before
are you serious????
look I have poor circulation and I have nice hands but they dry easily. in winter they crack and recently I sustained chemical burns from a bad ecover washing up liquid. so the skin is in poor shape and it’s very sore. most perfumed creams hurt.
this one smells like spiced oranges and it’s gentle. the cream is thick and a little tacky but overall not greasy.
so I first discovered their foot cream which, maybe you can’t see a difference but I do. daily putting on this cream out the shower has a hugely positive effect on my mental health and it helps to prevent cracked heels. my foot transformation isn’t as dramatic as the hands because they aren’t quite so hardworking but, you can see the skin is smoother.

after
when I say my skin feels soft, fresh and buttery I mean it.
the foot relief cream has a botanically herbaceous and peppermint scent and it just feels like you’ve given your feet the best ever treat.
one of life’s little luxuries I hope I don’t ever have to be without and I stock up every sale to make sure this is the case.
when I say these are must haves I mean it!
you’re welcome
