Indigo is a Polish cosmetics brand enjoying continuously growing popularity. The brand offers nail products and additionally body cosmetics. Indigo Seventh Heaven hand cream is a heavily perfumed hand cream of moisturizing effect 🙂. Our testers appreciated the effect, visible hydration, light texture and quick absorption. The cream leaves however an oily layer on the skin, so it is an option for people with time to care of their hands ⏳. Large packaging volume is balanced by medium efficiency. The drawbacks include alcohol content and as many as seven fragrances in the formula 🧪. Seventh Heaven is not a cosmetic seventh heaven, but may work well for lovers of perfumed creams 😉.

Neutrogena cream is a cosmetic that needs no introduction. For many years, the cream was available mainly in pharmacies, while now it can be easily bought in many drugstores and retail chains. It is recognised for its moisturizing effect 🙂. Small packaging volume is balanced by high efficiency 👍. A small amount of cream is enough to rub into your hands. Our testers praised its strong moisturizing effect and high effectiveness for cracked skin. The cream is fragrance free and has a simple formula, but contains a cetylsearyl alcohol, which may not suit everyone. The cosmetic is quickly absorbed, but leaves a slightly greasy film 😓. Since more diverse formulas will work better on a daily basis, we recommend this cream mainly as a temporary aid for dry skin.

- strong moisturizing effect
- high efficiency

Yope is a Polish cosmetics brand focusing on natural ingredients 🌿. Although the brand has entered the market with soaps, it has been expanding its portfolio with cosmetics and shampoos for years. We included the ginger and sandalwood hand cream in our tests due to its popularity. First of all, it is a cosmetic with an intense, spicy fragrance with a noticeable ginger note 🥰. Such intensity will not suit everyone, but it may be seen as an advantage by the enthusiasts of such fragrances. Our testers were quite satisfied with the basic, moisturizing effect of the cream. The effect is noticeable, although the testers reported that the texture could be slightly thicker 🤔. The testers expressed common dissatisfaction with the aluminium tube. Since it is difficult to completely squeeze the cream from tube and at the same time it is prone to cracking, in effect we get moisturized bag rather than hands...🙃 Although the Yope Ginger and Sandalwood hand cream moisturizes well, the formulas with a stronger moisturizing effect be better solutions for very dry and cracked skin 😉.
Benefits
Yope, Ginger and Sandalwood, hand cream
- satisfactory moisturizing effect
- contains natural extracts
- absorbs quickly
Disadvantages
Yope, Ginger and Sandalwood, hand cream
- relatively high price
- difficult to fully squeeze the tube
- consistency a bit too watery

Ziaja hand cream with cashmere proteins and shea butter is a budget offer of an everyday hand cream. You can get it for just a few zlotys and it is widely available in stores and drugstores 🤑. Our testers praised its quick absorption and delicate fragrance. The moisturizing effect is quite gentle, yet sufficient if we use the cream several times a day. The value for money is beneficial 👍, but you have to remember that this is not a cosmetic that will deal with very dry and cracked skin 😞. With medium dryness, Ziaja hand cream will work well, although we are the fans of more intense hydration 😉.

- very low price
- availability
- absorbs quickly
- good value for money
Disadvantages
Ziaja, Hand cream with cashmere proteins and shea butter
