How to take care of your hands in winter?

Hands are, with the face, the parts of the body most exposed to external aggressions. They are constantly solicited, both when at home and when outside, and their skin is subject to multiple attacks. In winter, the effects of the cold are added to this. As a result, the skin of our hands is often damaged and requires special attention.

Here are some tips to care for them and have beautiful hands in winter:

– Wash them regularly with warm water and soap to remove germs and impurities that accumulate throughout the day.

– Moisturize your hands regularly: use a moisturizing and nourishing hand cream every day, especially after washing your hands or being exposed to cold and wind, to maintain their moisture level.

– Avoid putting your hands in hot water or exposing them to cold temperatures for too long, as this can dry out the skin.

– Protect your hands from the cold: wear gloves when outside in cold, windy weather.

– Use gloves when cleaning or exposing your hands to chemicals to protect your skin.

– Scrub your hands: use a gentle scrub once or twice a week to remove dead skin cells and improve the appearance of your skin.

– Use nourishing oils: oils like sweet almond oil or coconut oil can be used to nourish and protect your hands in winter.
