Awesome Stocking Stuffer That’s Environmentally-Friendly, Affordable and Has a Heavenly Smell

Some things in life are just such a gift!

Such is the case with STEAMCREAM, an innovative hand, face and body cream that is not only very affordable but also vegan, and comes in a variety of attractive recyclable metal tins you will love to give (and get.)

I was provided with a sample and I love it. The cream is steam-infused during the manufacturing process to create a rich, hydrating feeling and the SMELL! It smells fantastic.

It reminds me of my favorite cream that eventually went scentless (and I stopped using shortly thereafter). My friend Jo tried it and says it reminds her of the smell of her father’s shaving cream from her childhood.

STEAMCREAM was started in Japan in 2007 and now is distributed in the United Kingdom and North America. The natural “traceable” ingredients include oatmeal (to help with inflammation), almond oil, lavender oil, jojoba oil, cocoa butter and a variety of essential oils.

It is suitable for all skin types and the best news – it’s 2.6 ounces so you can take it on the plane with you when you travel! That and it’s only $18.00.

STEAMCREAM is packaged in recyclable, reusable tins designed by hip young Tokyo-based artists Takayuki Totsuka and Hiroyuki Takahashi.. Tin designs are limited edition (1,800 units) giving STEAMCREAM an ever-changing image. Irresistibly collectable, customers can re-use the aluminum tins once the cream is finished as storage for jewelry, earphones, stamps, spices, change or paper clips, or put them in the recycle bin (please, no!)

The cream is never tested on animals and there is a helpful “use by” sticker on the bottom of the tin to help you remember when to throw it out – if it lasts that long.

Here is a little more about the unique steam-infusing manufacturing:

“The power and energy produced by bubbling steam melts and fuses the ingredients together at a speed that defies most traditional cream-making methods. The force and intensity allows the ingredients to emulsify instantly, producing this beautifully textured light and glossy cream. The resulting loose emulsion enables the cream to break down immediately on contact with the skin for maximum benefit and absorption,” from a recent press release.

It is available through some select retail locations in New York, California, Virginia and Michigan and on-line at www.steamcream.com so order soon for yourself and your friends and family – come on and spread some holiday cheer!
