Washing My Hands with it...Sabon Lavender Apple Liquid Hand Soap

I feel a little strange doing a hand wash post, but I feel this is a product that doesn't get much thought given to its importance.

You may not be consciously aware, but whether you're shaking someone's hand, making a gesture, giving or receiving something, your hands draw more attention then you know. Your hands are one of the first parts of your body to show aging. So, the first line of defiance is investing in a good hand wash that will thoroughly cleanse, without stripping away moisture.

Sabon's liquid hand soaps are glycerin-based (glycerin cleanses, helps to restore hydration, and retains moisture), enriched with chamomile (chamomile soothes, and promotes cell regeneration), aloe vera (aloe vera moisturizes and fights aging), as well as being SLS and Paraben free.

I wash my hands a lot, not in an OCD or germaphobic way, but often. This hand wash leaves my hands feeling cleansed, hydrated, and silky smooth. I love, love, love, LOVE the scent of Lavender Apple; it's one of my favorite fragrances from Sabon. After washing my hands, I can't help cupping my nose, and smelling my hands...now, there's an awkward visual for you.

I adore all things Sabon, and shopping there is truly an experience. The store's exterior, interior, and product packaging makes you feel as if you've stepped into a luxurious, Edwardian Apothecary. If you've never been to one of their stores, it's a must!

The SA asked me if the hand wash was a gift, which I jokingly told her it was a gift to myself. So, while I was distracted making my purchase, she went ahead and wrapped the bottle all cutely.

Sabon's Liquid Hand Soap contains 200ml, and retails for 2,160 yen.

What hand wash do you use?

Looking gorgeous one lipstick at a time.
