I am so enjoying these! I tried the sampler and was quickly back to reorder.

I have been using Candy's products mainly on my hands (and sometimes feets as I wear open sandals 24/7Smile I have been trying everything to get my hands healthy again. I really did'nt appreciate how having pretty hands was important to me until they started getting ugly! Not to mention the hurt of cracking cuticles and such. I needed a quality product that I could afford to use very frequently throughout the day- because I do have to wash my hands a lot and reapply.

so this is my Hand routine....

Almond and oatmeal cleansing cream. I got it unscented, but I actually love the smell of it naturally. I take a bit into hands and add water until it's mushy and then massage to my hearts content. This one I have just started using but so far I love it, skin feels moisturized and renewed. Like a facial for my hands...speaking of which- Candy, can I use this on my face? Has anyone tried?

Body Polish- I think this might be my favorite, although I will have to try the brown sugar scrub to be sure LOL. Apply to damp hands and exfoliate and soften. This works wonders on the back of my hands where I need to exfoliate. After the sugar has done it's job scrubbing, it melts into a really gentle sort of lather- like lotion. Soooo soothing.

Body butter- yum, this is so moisturizing! I like it at night. I found it a little to much for day, however, oddly enough, if I use just a little and wait a bit, and then follow with the "encore", it either creates a barrier or soaks into my skin. Not sure why it works that way, but it does, and the more moisture I can get the better.

Encore- Love love this stuff. I find myself reaching for this a lot during the day.I had to have something that would not be greasy and would soak into my hands. This is perfect!

oh, and the lemon soap came as a gift with my order...thankyou! I have'nt used it yet as I am currently using the other lovely soaps from my first sample order.

The smells of these products are of course something that needs mentioning- Wonderful... Not overly sweet, not too perfumey. And I love that I get to choose and try different scents. I am using coconut, lemon souffle, and peach. I am a good candidate for the monkey farts as I love the tropical scents. LOL!

I couldn't find this site anywhere. I googled Candessence and Candessence.com. Anyone else having this problem? Sad

Yes - you can use it on your face too! lol, that's orginally what it started as, the DIY DHCC from here. I like to 'tweak' things, lol
