Are the Bliss gloves worth the $$$?

stylethread · Kenneth Cole

Yes, I have tried them. I do not own them, but I do own a pair of the Bliss Socks (which are the same thing pretty much, just for you feet). I think the only thing that should determine if they're worth the money or not is why you're buying them. If you just have dry hands, yes, they will be a huge help because they really do moisturize. If you're buying them because you just want better hands overall...you're going to be disappointed. I think they're the best of their kind out there if that is what you want. I am glad that I bought the socks...just don't expect too much, thats all. HTH

I showed those to my mom and she was appalled at the price. She said everyone used to wear gloves to bed in her "day and age." She said any gloves will do (soft gloves anyway) and any lotion will work. It's the same with foot lotion. Any old pair of socks will work with your foot lotion at night.

That said, I've never tried them so maybe they have some miracle ingredient in them that make them worth the money.

Bath and Body works makes a near-exact copy of the gloves and socks... for half the price. I have the gloves, and during the winter they're great. During the summer, however, they trap too much heat in my hands I wake up half way through the night and take them off. That said, you're probably just as well off with thin cotton gloves.

i use the burt's bees coconut lotion (which i loooooooove) and i have a pair of my bf's socks that i wrote "Coconut Socks" on, and that's what i use. i just can't imagine spending money on socks that i know i would take off in the middle of the night (i can't STAND sleeping with socks on).

try the bath and body works version for the gloves and you can make your own socks.

I have both the gloves and the socks but I got them as presents. They are helpful to have around but I wouldn't buy them at that price. If you really have problems with dry hands and feet get the BBW version.

Well, I think I will try the B&BW version. $48 is ridiculous. Thanks!
