Part 4: Practical Daily Habits to Keep Hands Smooth and Hydrated
If you want to protect your skin barrier and reduce dry, crepey skin on your hands, adopt these simple habits:
- Apply Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen Daily: Protect the backs of your hands with SPF 30+ to prevent UV rays from degrading collagen.
- Use Occlusive Ointments at Night: Slather pure petroleum jelly or ceramide creams onto damp hands before bed to lock in deep hydration.
- Wear Protective Gloves: Put on rubber gloves while washing dishes or handling harsh household cleaning products to avoid chemical irritation.
- Exfoliate Gently with Chemical Acids: Swap harsh DIY scrubs for mild chemical exfoliants like lactic acid or glycolic acid hand creams.
