Our hands are our number one tool for work and expression. They are busy most of the day doing something. And they can be quite the focal point for others to look at.
Are your hands looking as healthy as they should? Are you taking extra precautions to make sure they are representing the rest of you to the best of their ability? Let’s explore some different hand creams and tips to keep your hands in tip-top shape.
One of the quickest ways to show someone your “true” age is through your hand. How they feel and how they look is very important.
Have you ever shaken someone’s hand and were startled by how rough and gruff it felt? Or, have you experienced the exact opposite and felt something so smooth and soft you thought they must live in a pair of gloves?
Our hand is our number one tool. And above and beyond any other body part, they are exposed to very harsh chemicals, dirt, and the sun.
Think about how many times we clean our hands in a day just to remove dirt and germs. Our hand are always exposed to the elements and weather conditions.
And the cold, wind and sun, above all, can damage our hands and cause them to age prematurely.
The palms of our hands are much thicker than the thin skin on the back of our hands. As we age, our collagen and elastin are compromised and we experience the loss of fat.
When this happens, the veins on the back of our hands tend to stand out more, our knuckles are more pronounced, we develop spots, fine lines, and even wrinkles.
So, what can we do? Invest in good hand cream or lotion and make you use it several times throughout the day. It won’t improve the structure of your hands, but it can help them look better.
