Sample Sunday- L'Occitane Hand Creams
Happy Sunday!
It's another round of Sample Sunday and today we are going to talk about L'Occitane.
L'Occitane is probably my favorite luxurious bath and skin line. Every time I go to a L'Occitane location I feel like I've been transported to the South of France. I like that they are very open with where and how they source their ingredients. I also admire that their whole production is basically in Manosque, a region in Southeastern France. In Manosque, you'll find the L'Occitane factory and laboratory but also a museum and garden which are all open for tours. The L'Occitane store in Manosque is the largest in France and the prices of products are 10% less than everywhere else in the world. So when in Manosque, go visit L'Occitane.

The two samples that I have today are both hand creams- Amande & Fleurs de Cerisier. I originally had three samples, the third was the original Shea Butter hand cream which I've used up. This is not a sponsored post, I received the samples as part of customer appreciation day.
I love the original Shea butter hand cream. It's non-greasy and super moisturizing so I was really excited to receive the other two to try. L'Occitane has a lot more hand creams in their collection so you can check the list on their website.
or Almond is made with surprise, surprise- Almond Milk. It's got the same feel and texture as the Shea Butter, again non-greasy and moisturizing BUT I am in love with the scent. I am not usually a big scent person in my hand cream or body lotion but this honestly smells like when I bake macaroons. It has a very sweet and almond-y scent. I think I may have found a new favorite, so when I finish my full size shea butter I might have to go and get the full size of Amande and the soap which looks really good. Another thing I have to note is that the scent actually lasts a good long while which is fantastic.
or Cherry Blossom I really can't say much about. If you like the scent of Cherry Blossom, then you might like this. However, I am passing this off to my mom who likes Cherry Blossom. I like some floral scents but this one is just too overwhelming for me.
A really short and sweet Sample Sunday for you guys today. Hope you all had a really lovely weekend, I am going back to binge watching Homeland. As always, thanks for reading!
Until next time,
