Utterly adorable packaging, the banana is the length of my hand about half the size of a medium banana and squishy. Very easy to unscrew the top and dispense the cream which comes out in a thin line. The cream itself is very thick, becoming wet as you rub it in. It melts into the backs of my hands but doesn't completely sink it.
It smells like banana candies, and I only smell it if I sniff my hand closely. The smell fades after a while and isn't as strong or as lasting as I would prefer because it is just so nice. As a hand cream I prefer something more milky/lotiony. This does not disappear into the skin and is not super moisturizing. It's OK. I would repurchase for the smell and packaging alone. This is a great, inexpensive gift idea for anyone who likes bananas.
