How To Care Of Your Hands
Tips For Beauiful Hands
Nothing will give away your age quicker than the condition
of your hands. You can have facelifts to hide the ravages of time,
but you can't hide the damage to your skin on your hands.
Prevention is the best way to take care of the skin
on your hands. Here are some tips to help hold off the ravages of
time.
- To cover up some of those age spots, try applying vitamin E oil
directly to the spots to fade the discoloration.
- There is also a product that’s been around since Grandma
was a youngster. It’s called porcelana and women have credited
it for removing age spots for decades.
- If you spend hours at a time on the computer, be sure you use
a rest for your wrists. It will help ward off carpal tunnel syndrome.
- Your nails. Press on? Glue on? Paint on? Take your pick; there
are nothing but choices out there. If you have your acrylic nails
done in a nail salon, understand that you do so at your own risk!
If the salon you are using does not replace or sanitize their instruments
(files, nippers, brushes, etc.) between customers, run, don’t
walk for the door.
- When trying out a new salon, arrive early for your appointment.
If you are using a “walk in” shop, make certain you
let someone go before you. Sit or stand where you can “catch
the action.” Pay close attention to how the nail tech prepares
for the new client. Watch carefully to make certain that he/she
is skilled in the trade and does not accidentally break the skin
especially if they haven’t sanitized their instruments. With
the prevalence of AIDS, hepatitis and other diseases, you can’t
be too careful. If you see something that just doesn’t seem
right, get up and leave. Try a more “upscale” shop next
time.
- Do not file the corner of your fingernails. It weakens, causing
them to break and crack.
- If your fingernails are brittle, it may be the soap you are using
or a hand cream that is perfumed. Most perfumed hand creams contain
alcohol which will dry the nails, causing them to become brittle.
- Are your nails cracked, brittle and breaking? Try drinking more
water . . . yep. . . back to the water. At least 8 glasses a day
. . .and that’s 8 ounce glasses.
- Combat dry and brittle nails by increasing your vitamin A and
calcium.
- Have a problem hang nails? Try adding more protein to your diet.
Throw in some folic acid and vitamin C as well.
- If you have white bands across your fingernails, you need more
protein.
- Splitting nails can be reversed. Add some hydrochloric acid to
your diet.
- Add more vitamin B12 to your daily vitamin regimen to help fight
dryness.
- Got white spots on your nails? Try taking zinc.
- You need more liquids if you have cracks or cuts in the fingernails.
- Do your hands feel like sandpaper? Soften them up with a coating
of Vaseline then slip them into inexpensive cotton gloves. Do this
just before bed and by the time you wake up in the morning, your
hands will be silky smooth.
- Yes, they are awkward, but wear rubber gloves while cleaning.
Chemicals in the cleaning products are doing a number on your hands.
