Hygiene and Care of Hands

You ‘mistreat’ and ‘abuse’ our hands so much in everyday activity, yet they remain our accessory number one. 

Always soften your hands even if you’re doing dishes by adding about a teaspoon of almond oil to the dishwater. This will soften rough skin with the oil sealing the moisture. 

Care of hands by cleaning them your with sea salt lemon solution as this will slough off the dead cells on your skin. 

Using a toothbrush to do this two times a week will surely remove any discoloration while at the same time softening your hands. 

Use warm water to thoroughly wash your hands and follow this with a coarse washcloth rubbing firmly. With the skin being slightly moisturized, apply a mixture of a teaspoon of honey and an equal measure of olive oil then place your hands in small plastic bags. 
From here, place the hands in a pair of cotton gloves for half an hour. Heat generated from this procedure makes sure treatment penetrates. 

You could also soak your hands in warm milk for five minutes to make your nails stronger while hydrating your skin. 

The high calcium ingredients in milk will make your nails stronger while the lactic acid will gently exfoliate dead skin.
