- The 400 ml tin is a larger single-container format than many small face-cream tubs.
- Panthenol is listed as an active ingredient, and glycerin as a special ingredient.
Cons
- The fresh fragrance and listed fragrance ingredients may not suit shoppers seeking a fragrance-free cream.
- Feedback is mixed on whether the cream feels greasy or sticky and how quickly it absorbs.

What to know before buying
- The manufacturer advises checking ingredients if you have sensitivities. The listed ingredient names include fragrance components.
Listing details to confirm
The 400 ml volume and 400.0 gram unit count are both listed, while the separate weight is given as 0.41 Kilograms. These are different listing fields, so treat the stated volume as the product's advertised size rather than inferring a volume-to-weight conversion.
Who is it for?
A good fit for
- Shoppers wanting one cream listed for face, body and hands.
- Adults seeking a multi-use cream for dry areas and who prefer a fragranced formula.
- Buyers who want a larger tin for everyday moisturising use.
Less suited to
- People looking specifically for fragrance-free skincare.
- Anyone who needs a cream with consistently fast absorption or a reliably non-greasy feel, as customer feedback varies on both.

Customer feedback highlights perceived moisturising, soft texture, fragrance and size as positives, with some customers describing it as useful for dry skin and winter use. Reports differ on greasiness and absorption, which matters if you prefer a light feel or need a cream to sink in quickly. The listing presents it as a rich, multi-use cream for face, body and hands, but that product description does not establish how it will feel on every person's skin. Overall ratings are predominantly five-star, with a smaller spread across lower ratings, but ratings alone do not explain individual experiences.
Positive themes
- Customers describe the cream as moisturising and say it leaves hands feeling smooth.
- Positive feedback mentions its soft texture, fragrance and larger container size.
Mixed feedback
- Some customers say it is not greasy, while others find it sticky.
- Customer opinions differ on how quickly it absorbs.
