DHC Q10 Hand Cream
Posted on: May 23, 2010
I got this approximately 50% price off, while I thought this is a good deal, ehh? It had been two years from the manufacturing date, which is going to be expired in a year. As my existing hand creams were finishing soon and I always used up a hand cream in 1~3 months, not a big problem for me anyway.
This hand cream is very nourishing but lightweight, it actually soaks in easily though a little bit greasy in the beginning. The thing is, it smells … strange when I sniff my hand closely, I guess that’s the smell of natural ingredients. Once it fully absorbed into skin, no greasiness but leaves a minimum shiny film and the unpleasant smell is faintly noticeable. This isn’t fragranced, surely I would prefer fragranced hand care.
Despite all those minor gripes, it indeed capable to moisturize skin after hand wash. It lacks of superior moisturizing power for overnight hand care though apply liberal amount would help. I normally add extra serum/oil before applying hand cream in order to boost the moisturizing factor for night care. Amongst the hand creams I’ve ever reviewed here, Skinfood, Caudalie, B&C, this DHC’s is the only one that failed to soften my heel overnight. That might be over-demanding as it never meant for heel, but still, I degrade the rating because of this reason.
This DHC Q10 Hand Cream is retailing at THB350/50ml. For its good ingredient list, initially I thought I’ll only consider to repurchase when there is a good deal, such as THB166 I paid during the mini sales. After realizing drugstore hand cream can perform as good as it with much lower price point, I don’t think I’ll re-purchase then, furthermore I much prefer powdery-smooth finish.
