DRY HANDS SELF HELP


DRY SKIN ON HANDS


Extremely dry skin can be a warning sign of a skin problem called dermatitis 
Hand skin is unique because it's so thick, which means it's also slow to heal. Plus you have to use your hands all day long, even when they are chapped. To heal your hard-working, chapped, cracked, dry, and painful hands, you need the best products for the job and your products need to work synergistically to repair and prevent dry hands.

AT HOME HOT OIL HAND TREATMENT
1 tablespoon of olive oil
1/2 teaspoon of almond extract (optional)
2 small plastic bags
(or plastic gloves if you have access to them)




METHOD:
  • 1.  Put the olive oil ( from pharmacy/supermarket)  in a small bowl and heat in the microwave until warm (about 30 seconds).  You want the oil warm, but not so hot that it would burn your hands.  Stir in the almond extract if desired.  (it makes it smell really good), can also use almond oil.
    3.  Dip hands in the oil until it cools down, you can also reheat and do process again. Then,put the plastic bags or plastic gloves on your hands and leave them on for about 10 minutes.
  • 2.  Rub the oil on your hands, paying special attention to massaging it into the cuticles and any other dry areas.

* posh as it may seem... do wear gloves when doing dishes, your hands will thank you for it.Avoid formulas with synthetic fragrances, preservatives, and sulfates, as these are all drying. Foaming and antibacterial types are also likely to strip your skin of its own natural fats and oils. Choose moisturizing cleansers instead, and be sure you rinse thoroughly.
