An undisputable fact is that you can actually tell a woman's age from her hands. During cold winter months, the low humidity that accompanies the cold can create havoc with your skin, and hands and feet particularly need greater care during winter months. Here are 10 handy tips for this winter:
>>u00a0The key to preventing skin from drying is to prevent loss of water from the skin. This can be achieved by applying a rich hand-and-body-lotion after a bath to keep skin supple.
>>u00a0Regular exfoliation with a loofah will improve circulation and rid the skin of dead cells.
>>u00a0Elbows are usually the most neglected part. Scrub elbows daily with a pumice stone and then apply a mix of lemon juice and glycerine on it.u00a0 This will soften them and also help to lighten them.
>>u00a0Make sure to rub oil on the cuticles as they tend to flake in winter.
>>u00a0Use a good barrier cream such as petroleum jelly over hands and wrists and reapply it whenever your hands have been in water for a while.
>>u00a0Try and use gloves when working with detergents or gardening.
>>u00a0Once a week give the hands a good soak in warm almond oil.
>>u00a0Cracked skin can be caused during cold weather especially on the heels.u00a0 Clean out embedded dirt by first soaking feet in warm water to which salt and hydrogen peroxide have been added, then rub with a pumice stone.
