AVON SKIN SO SOFT REPLENISHING HAND CREAM - Soft skin. Now there’s a concept. Seems simple enough, yet somehow, moisturized, silky, supple hands can be tough to achieve. Avon’s Skin So Soft Replenishing Hand Cream can help you attain this goal. The light, easily absorbed lotion is perfect for the woman who finds herself constantly washing her hands. These days, with flu season and H1N1 breathing down our necks, who isn’t washing their hands every other minute? Avon’s Skin So Soft lotion has a very pleasant, yet somewhat faint smell. This is not the lotion for greasing up your hands overnight or for curing already extremely dry hands. This little tube belongs next to your computer, in your changing bag/gym bag, or even in your car. It’s light weight allows you to quickly moisturize and get back to what you were doing without leaving you with greasy, sticky hands. I am still a newbie when it comes to Avon products, this is the second one I have ever tried. But, with a winning thumbs up record of 2 for 2, I think I will be trying some more in the near future.

Final Verdict: BOB (Beauty on a Budget) At $3 for 3.4 oz, you cannot beat this budget beauty. Buy a few, you’ll thank yourself later. Available at www.avon.com
