Healthy hands are happy hands, and as thankful as we are for hand soaps, sanitisers, and household cleaners right now, continuous usage can leave our skin feeling rough and dry! While cleansers and antibacterials make things squeaky clean, they also strip your skin of its natural oils, which can result in extremely dry hands and cuticles.
Protect your hands
Disposable or rubber gloves are key right now, if you can still get your hands on them. When possible, use them when cleaning, and put on a really great hand cream several times a day, especially before bed. In addition to this, I would suggest using a hand soap to clean hands instead of hand sanitiser. Most hand sanitisers contains alcohol that will dry out the hands faster.2. Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize!Treat dry hands at the very first sign of dryness. Large cracks or fissures can be difficult to treat if you wait too long, so keep your supply of hand cream near you at all times - the ProSpa Protective Hand and Nail Cuticle Cream will keep your hands moisturised, even after a couple pf hand washes.3. Don't Forget the CuticlesYour cuticles and nails are equally sensitive to drying out from dry weather, soaps, and household cleaners, and having dry cuticles makes nails more susceptible to the possibility of bacteria entering your nail beds. Yuck! Make sure to nip any hangnails that might currently be fraying to prevent them from continuing to tear, and massage Nail & Cuticle Oil into your nails once a day to help alleviate dryness.4.
