Every woman knows that you can estimate the age according to the condition and appearance of the hands. Therefore, we must not forget that hand rejuvenation is a necessary procedure to keep yourself in shape. Thanks to a thin subcutaneous adipose tissue, the skin of the hands ages very quickly, dries and wrinkles appear.
In addition, it is constantly exposed to ultraviolet radiation, cold, windy weather, aggressive chemical and mechanical stress.
Unfortunately, rubber gloves for cleaning are not popular among our women, so household chemicals irritate and damage delicate skin.
It is not always possible to find the time and money to go to a beauty salon, but it is also possible to rejuvenate the skin of the hands at home. Hand rejuvenation is believed to consist of two care procedures. The first block is the prevention of premature aging, and the second is the restoration of damaged and tired skin. Folk remedies used for rejuvenation provide protection, hydration and nutrition.
Prevention of premature skin aging
Preventive procedures aimed at rejuvenating the hands include measures to protect them from various environmental influences. It is quite possible to do this at home.
In bad weather, you should apply protective equipment before leaving the house. You can apply sunflower or olive oil on your skin in cold and windy weather. Prevents redness & cracking
Always wear gloves when working with household chemicals.
It is recommended to spend a quarter of an hour on hand care with a salt bath after cleaning. In the absence of sea salt, essential oils of orange, grapefruit or eucalyptus will do.
