Proper hand and nail care (Part 2)

Proper hand and nail care (Part 2)

In the previous article (read…), we introduced you to several simple daily care rules for the skin of your hands and nails, which are an excellent support at home for maintaining the effect of professional hand-care treatments.

To keep your hands always looking beautiful and healthy, you only need to follow a few care rules.

Use of moisturizing and nourishing creams

The skin of the hands needs to replenish lost moisture with the help of a moisturizing cream. The cream should be applied at least twice a day. If you constantly feel dryness or notice cracks on your hands, the cream should be applied after every contact with water (hand washing). To choose the most suitable cream, it is recommended to test several different options. If it is difficult to find an individual product, you can try using a cream containing urea.

Sea salt hand baths

A sea treatment will soften the skin and strengthen the nails. Simply dissolve sea salt in water and keep your hands in the solution for some time. This strengthening procedure should be done once a week. After any treatment, hands should be moisturized with cream.

Hand masks

After applying a hand mask, the skin becomes firmer and more youthful, and the nails become healthier and stronger. Masks should be applied twice a week.

Mask options:

1. Honey and egg yolk mask for tightening the skin of the hands.
2. Fermented baked milk (ryazhenka), olive oil, and lemon juice mask for nourishing and brightening the skin of the hands.

Hand washing

Hands should be washed with products that have low acidity. Baby soap is ideal for hands, as it gently cares for both skin and nails.

After analyzing these points, we can conclude that hand care does not take much time. You only need to dedicate a few minutes a day: wash your hands with low-acidity products, immediately apply cream afterward, wear gloves when cleaning floors and dishes, and then nourish your hands again with cream.
