Not to be confused with Alba Botanicals, Alba 1913 is a Polish skin care line that's recently made its way stateside. The brand's products have a retro apothecary aesthetic and are made without parabens, artificial fragrances and colors -- plus, they aren't tested on animals. At any rate, their hand cream is definitely a standout. It's got a rich, almost balm-like texture that provides moisture that really lasts -- even through multiple hand-washings. You'll find that you don't have to compulsively apply it on the hour, the way you do with some hand creams.
After applying, my hands feel softer and suppler in seconds -- since the creamy formula absorbs quite quickly. It also has an herb-y scent, thanks to the orange pericarp essential oil and marigold petal extract. All in all, what's not to love? --Rosie Narasaki
