Whereas Helping Hands is given a high rating because of the miraculous way it works, Smitten deserves high ratings simply for the way it smells and the overall presentation. It’s like rubbing Marzipan paste all over you but creamier. It’s as thick as the Lush  Helping Hands hand cream, you could stand a spoon in either one of them. And I must say I was surprised at how well it worked. No, it still doesn’t work as well as Helping Hands, but i dont care because it smells heavenly.

Lush 2006 Description: Last year, Mark, our top bod at Lush (he has no official title but we all know who’s boss) asked the Lush forum for a list of beautiful words. Smitten was one of them. The forum members asked Mark for a lighter, daytime hand cream scented with the same deliciously mouth-watering fragrance as Snowcake soap. Fairie’s fair. Now we have a beautiful new hand cream with a beautiful name made with natural oils and butters for a longer term benefit for your mits. (Note to non-mother tongue English speakers: mittens are like gloves but with one big finger instead of the usual four so Smitten is a hand protector pun as well as a lovely name. Just so you know.
