Daily Habits for Younger-Looking Hands
The biggest improvements usually come from everyday habits rather than occasional treatments.
Moisturize Frequently
Apply hand cream after every hand wash.
Look for ingredients such as:
- Glycerin
- Ceramides
- Shea butter
- Hyaluronic acid
- Petrolatum
Wear Sunscreen
The backs of the hands receive significant sun exposure.
Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every morning and reapply after washing your hands or spending time outdoors.
Daily sunscreen is one of the most effective ways to help prevent new age spots and premature wrinkles.
Wear Gloves
Protect your hands while:
- Washing dishes
- Gardening
- Cleaning with household chemicals
Stay Hydrated
Drinking enough water and eating a balanced diet supports healthy skin throughout the body.
