My Trusty Little Sunflower Cream Review

First developed over twenty years ago by Salisbury District Hospital My Trusty was originally a moisturising cream for patients recovering from burns and plastic surgery, but works fantastically for dry skin conditions. I was send a bottle to test for 3 weeks and I must say I was very impressed with the simple packaging design. 

 The My Trusty® sunflower cream formally launched in 2013, followed swiftly by a lavender scented version to give the cream a modern twist for a broader audience. My Trusty® body butter was launched in 2014 and the cocoa and shea butter contents led it to win a silver award in the best new body care category at the Pure Beauty Awards in November 2014.

The pump top to my bottle caused a few hiccups, not ideal for handbag carrying, so in the future I would definitely buy a flip top version for that purpose. The unscented version does smell quite cloying and similar to a nappy cream, but that fades quickly so I never found it to be a problem. The product is quite thick but vanishes into the skin quicker than anything I've used before and has instant results. I use it quite frequently, but I've found that I need to use it less often as it builds up a barrier to the water. 

 I live in Scotland and the toll of our delightful weather and constant hand washing in my work leaves me hand dried out and frankly a mess. I have tried many brands over the years but so far My Trusty has actually helped my hands become soft and smooth again.
