Beautiful Hands All Winter

The winter months are upon us. The gloves go on, but don't forget to ready your hands and nails! The cold of winter can dry out your hands and cuticles. You might actually develop a buildup of dried-out dead skin cells on your hands and cuticles. So restore and condition your hands and nails with an exfoliating solution. To get those hands silky-smooth, incorporate a 10-day hand reconditioning plan into your daily beauty ritual.

 

Steps to Silky-Smooth Hands and Cuticles

  • Exfoliate your hands every other day in the shower for two minutes per hand. Use a scrub that contains alpha hydroxy, beta hydroxy, or glycolic acid.
  • Invest in a quality cuticle cream to massage into the cuticles. Make sure you do this gently. Torn cuticles can get infected.
  • Saturate the hands twice daily in a cream that moisturizes and exfoliates at the same time. To get this result, choose a moisturizer that contains mineral oil and glycolic acid.
