How to have lovely hands

Hey girls, this tips are absolutely for us! We tend to ignore them and focus on some other things instead. Very good example is myself, I do pick my finger nails especially when I am not doing anything at all or while watching TV, which is really a very bad practice isn't it?

Well, I am becoming more aware now on how to maintain them to have a lovely hands, and here's how:

1) Cleanse and exfoliate. Wash with a gentle soap or hand wash. Exfoliate once or twice a week.

2) Moisturise. Use a good hand cream or lotion in the morning and at night, and every time you do the dishes or immerse your hands in water for a period of time.

3) Pay special attention to cuticles. Never pick at torn skin, it is a sure way to painful infections. Soften them with cuticle oil. Needless to say, this is one of my bad habits. I need to stop this!

4) Use sunscreen. Compare your left and right hands, the latter being the one that's exposed to the window while you drive. Chances are your right hand shows more brown spots, darker and drier skin than your left hand. Enough reason to cover both your hands with an SPF15 sunscree - no less.

4) Protect. Harsh chemicals in household cleaners can leave hands dry, cracked and sore. Always wear rubber gloves around the house and gardening gloves if you like pottering outdoor.

Well ladies, I have started doing these little ideas of mine, hope you do too.
