This is the first time that I have purchased and used this product. I had no expectations when I bought this except for that fact that I wanted something organic and something that had less chemicals lurking in it. I us it mostly on my legs, because they are always so dry, and it works wonders!! It is thick but it is also very creamy and rubs in on the skin well. If you were wanting to use it as a hand cream, I would recommend using as little as possible and not touching anything when you are done. It can be greasy depending on how much you use but I have no problems with it on my legs. It does not have much of a smell at all. If I had to compare it to something, I would say it smelled just a little but like flour. Great product! I will purchase again in the future.
