Rules for the care of hands in everyday life
In order to keep the skin on your hands longer and more healthy and young, you need to learn a few rules.
1. Do not skimp on gloves. If your hands come into contact with cleaning agents (cleaning tiles, hand washing, washing floors and utensils) and come into contact with water, you need to wear rubber gloves. Thus, you protect the skin of your hands from chemicals and from corrosion by water. The gloves should be slightly too large to prevent them from squeezing the skin. And before they are put on, you need to pour in a little talc inside the gloves, then they will easily remove. In addition, before putting on rubber gloves on your hands, they need to be lubricated with a protective or greasy cream, because rubber on the delicate skin of the hands has a bad effect.
2. Gloves are a useful thing for life. They work well in the garden, and if you work a piece of soap on your site beforehand, the dirt from your hands will be washed off in two counts.
3. Do not forget about gloves when it's cold outside, and it's not only in winter. In the spring, when
in the street a cold wind, wet weather in the autumn, all this is capable of a delicate skin of your hands to do a disservice. Those who like to walk without gloves in winter, they are waiting for reddening, untidy appearance, dryness, roughness of the palms and skin discomfort, and do not forget about it.
4. Do not buy cheap soap. A good variant of liquid soap with the addition of cream, antibacterial soap, soft toilet. After washing, you need to wipe your hands dry, so that the hands do not have tap water, which pulls the skin.
5. Several times a day you need to lubricate your hands with a moisturizing cream, and this should be considered the norm. If you go out into the open sun, you need to cover your palms with sunscreen, otherwise after a while the skin on the palms will look darker than the color of your body.
6. At night, lubricate your hands with cream with the addition of lactic acid or urea (have the ability to retain moisture in the body). Sometimes you can lubricate your hands with petroleum jelly before going to bed, the next day they will please you with a soft touch and velvety skin.
7. Hands should use a scrub. You can use home remedies, which are always at hand. It can be honey, sugar and salt, added to sour cream, coffee grounds. Do not refuse to take such a procedure for your hands, once or twice a week, it is best to do it while taking a hot bath. Do not forget to do this for the elbow zone.
For dry hands skin
If you have dry, rough skin, use several tips:
1. Make warm baths with the addition of salt or aromatic oils. They will give velvety and soft to the touch. Essential oils well moisturize the skin, and salt removes the upper layers of the epidermis, while opening a smooth, renewed skin. After the baths dry your hands, apply a moisturizing and nourishing cream on them. During the application of the cream, you can make a good massage to your hands.
2. During the massage the blood flows to the skin, the blood circulation is stimulated, the skin feeds on oxygen, the appearance improves. On the hands there are many points, if they are stimulated, you can positively influence the body.
