Too Much Time On Your Hands? Here’s How To Keep Your Hands Ageless
When it comes to skin care, our hands often take a backseat to our faces. Yet, hands are one of the first areas to reveal signs of aging. Often, while our faces may “lie,” our hands will show our age. Constant exposure to environmental stressors including UV, frequent washing and sanitizing, and natural loss of collagen make them susceptible to wrinkles, age spots, and dryness. At Alchimie Forever, we believe your hands deserve the same attention and care as the rest of your skin. Here's how you can keep them looking youthful and radiant.
How Do Hands Age?
The skin on the back of our hands is thin and has fewer oil glands, making it prone to dryness, crepyness, and wrinkles. Additionally, hands are exposed to UV, pollutants, and harsh chemicals, which accelerate the aging process. Over time, veins and tendons become more prominent as the skin loses elasticity and volume.
Anti-Aging Tips for Hands
Moisturize Frequently. One of the easiest and most effective ways to combat aging hands is regular hydration. Hands tend to lose moisture quickly, especially when exposed to cold weather, water, and harsh chemicals. Opt for creams that deeply nourish while strengthening the skin’s barrier.
