Our review

A nourishing hand cream with soybean and grape-seed oils, shea and avocado butters, urea and squalane, scented with lavender oil and a grape-like perfume. Wizaż reviewers mostly like the texture and comfort; the strong grape scent and a moderate effect on very dry hands are the recurring reservations.

Packaging and what the product is

The quoted photo from vianek.pl shows a tall, slim 100 ml tube in lilac and white with a sprig of lavender, labelled “Biolaven Krem do rąk odżywczy – nawilża i regeneruje” (nourishing hand cream – moisturises and regenerates), listing avocado butter, shea butter and urea, with a vegan mark. Biolaven is a line sold by Vianek. The tube has a flip-top cap.

Ingredient analysis

This is an emollient-rich emulsion: after water come Glycine Soja (soybean) oil and Vitis Vinifera (grape) seed oil, then glycerin and Butyrospermum Parkii (shea) butter. Sorbitan stearate, sucrose cocoate and glyceryl stearate are plant-based emulsifiers; stearic and palmitic acids and cetyl alcohol give body.

Urea (a humectant naturally found in the skin) and soy lecithin sit mid-list, followed by squalane and Persea Gratissima (avocado) butter. Xanthan gum stabilises the texture, and benzyl alcohol with dehydroacetic acid preserves it; citric acid adjusts the pH. Lavandula oil and parfum provide the scent.

What to watch out for

The fragrance components declared on the label are limonene, linalool, linalyl acetate and beta-caryophyllene (from lavender oil and the perfume), plus vanillin. People sensitive to fragrance or to lavender oil should test it first. Soybean oil and lecithin are rarely a problem in cosmetics, but those with a known soy allergy may want to note them.

What users say

On Wizaż the cream averages 4.1/5 from 19 ratings (checked 30 Oct 2026). Many reviewers praise soft, smooth hands, a pleasant feel and no irritation, and several use it as a night cream; opinions on texture are split – some describe it as light and quickly absorbed, others as rich and leaving a greasy layer.

The most frequent comment is the scent: an intense grape aroma that dominates the lavender – loved by some, found tiring, artificial or irritating by others. A few reviewers say it is not enough for very dry, rough hands, and one noticed product drying in the cap.

Who it may suit

Normal to dry hands needing everyday nourishing care, for people who enjoy a noticeable fruity scent. Very dry, cracked hands or fragrance-sensitive users may prefer a richer or unscented cream.
