HABA Hand Serum Aroma Selection

Finishing up the last 30g/1oz. tube of this HABA Hand Serum Aroma Selection trio so here's a quick post. There were Lavender, Citrus, and Rose scents.


True to their name, these hand serums have thin but still creamy texture, are not sticky, and are decently moisturizing. They're a prime example of why I much appreciate a well-named product. In this case, the name tempered my expectations, and thus I wasn't disappointed to find they aren't more moisturizing. They're "hand serums" after all, which are usually thin and often runny to begin with, sometimes in gel texture even, and at least these HABA ones are creamier and more like hand lotion. Anyway, since I knew all that going in, I didn't expect them to suddenly turn into thicker and richer hand creams, especially when the products neither claimed nor marketed themselves that way. So in all, these hand serums are best for spring, summer, and early fall when the weather isn't too cold and dry. They would probably work well in a warmer and more humid environment too.

 - Lavender: nice lavender scent, not too strong.

- Citrus: very faint scent of citrus, otherwise smells like generic soap. I most looked forward to this one but it turns out to be most disappointing.

- Rose: sweet lychee with hints of rose.
