During the winter season, in any frigid climate, our delicate hands suffer even if they are only exposed for a minute or so... Keeping them moisturized and healthy is a concern for many of us, not mentioning the condition of our cuticles and nails.
From my experience, what works for me the best is applying hand cream very often. That means having a cream handy everywhere I turn: in the kitchen, in the powder room, in my bathroom, on every desk I work at, in my purse and even in my car (just in case I miss all the other opportunities to cream my hands). Same with cuticle oil, try having one small bottle in your purse and condition your cuticles after each hand wash (even in the restaurant, like my good friend Joyce does).
When you get your manicure, ask for a paraffin treatment. It only takes a few more minutes and a few extra dollars, but trust me, it is worth it...
Try all these tips diligently for one week to start, and let me know how your hands feel! I bet they’ll be pleased! After all, our hands are like business cards, aren’t they? They help us communicate an image. So treat them with the care and respect they deserve…
