Blogmas Day 17. Protect your Hands



Skin can become very dry in winter (I feel like I've wrote that so many times this month). See posts: 2, 3, 5, 8, 14.

Hands suffer a lot more than the rest of your skin because you are using them for everything you do. Just by washing your hands can dry them out.

By using hand cream frequently (I must admit I don't really like using it a lot) it keeps your hands lovely and soft and also helps your hands to repair quicker if they do become cracked.

The cold weather can make your hands dry and cracked resulting in painful skin. This can be avoided if the correct methods are used.

Its often best to use un-scented/un-fragranced hand creams while your skin is cracked because fragranced/scented handcreams sting if they get in cuts but un-fragranced ones don't (as much).

Do you use hand creams? If so which ones do you like best?
