Chanel La Crème Main review

Overall Score: 83/100

Tested: October 2019

This cream is designed to moisturise, smooth and brighten the skin, claiming to leave the hands softer, protected and with a more even tone. It should also help strengthen the nails and soften cuticles.

Housed in a 50ml, travel-proof tube with a click-shut cap, it has a clean floral scent with aquatic notes.

GHI expert verdict

In our lab test, this hand cream scored a solid seven out of 10. The panel also agreed its formula was pleasant, smooth and silky in texture, gave all-day hydration and generally left the skin in better condition overall. 100% were happy with how their hands felt after using the product – softer, rehydrated and protected from dryness both immediately and with continued use. Its delicate scent and non-greasy formula were also a hit with testers, and it improved the appearance of nails. Thanks to the spill-proof packaging, it was a great travelling companion too.
