I bought this at T.J. Maxx yesterday as a birthday gift for a friend. But then I made the mistake of trying just a teensy-weensy bit on myself. Bad move. Now I’m completely besotted, and have decided to keep the hand and body cream for myself.

She’ll never know, right?

What makes this stuff so great?  First of all, how can you not love the packaging? Feminine with a bit of tongue-in-cheek humor. Plain & Thimble is from the same company that brings you Miso Pretty, Dirty Girl and Tainted Love.

Second of all, the cream is super moisturizing without being heavy or greasy. A little bit goes a long way, so use sparingly.

Third and lastly, the scent is a combination of jasmine, chamomile and fresh thyme and has that clean smell vaguely reminiscent of baby powder. I am so in love with the scent that I keep sniffing my hand every two seconds. I probably look like one of those mentally unstable people you encounter on public buses.
