Here are some tips for taking care of your hands and choosing the right organic and natural cream to apply daily!
Never without my hand cream!
In winter, it is essential to pamper your hands by applying special care throughout the day. Very often these are creams, the properties of which can vary. A good hand cream must above all be moisturizing and nourishing . Indeed, when temperatures drop, the skin quickly dehydrates and it must be helped to compensate for this loss of water and fat. Also choose a cream with a protective action. to form a kind of anti-cold shield, and restorative to help damaged areas heal. Applied daily, the triple action of your cream will relieve feelings of tightness and make your skin soft, smooth and supple again.
Natural ingredients in my hand cream
To forget your rough hands, you don't need to resort to ultra-sophisticated compositions! Certain natural ingredients are perfect for helping you regain nourished and soft skin. Thanks to its high content of unsaponifiable lipids, shea butter is recognized for example for its restorative, moisturizing and protective properties. The calendula , sought after for its softening and healing properties, is also ideal for application on dry or rough hands. For its part, the honey is known for its healing and antiseptic properties. Without forgetting the natural vegetable oils such as argan, castor or avocado oil, which have a strong moisturizing, nourishing and anti-aging effect on the skin.
What cream for my hands?
Overall, all hand creams quite adequately fulfill their primary purpose of moisturizing and nourishing the skin. However, depending on your skin type, it is in your best interest to choose one organic cream over another, especially depending on its composition.
- A cream for all skin types :the idea is to protect your hands from external aggressions on a daily basis, to make them soft and smooth again. For this, we recommend that you opt for an intense and nourishing treatment, such as Avril Nourishing Hand Cream or CATTIER Dry Hand Cream, composed of a subtle combination of vegetable oils.
- A cream for sensitive skin :sometimes the application of a classic cream is not enough and our hands remain completely dry. In this case, you have to go up a gear and choose a cream specially formulated for the most sensitive skin. This is the case of PAI SKINCARE's organic soothing hand cream, very nourishing and regenerating because it is enriched with vegetable oils of fragonia and sea buckthorn, as well as shea butter. Light and non-greasy, it is immediately absorbed by the skin and restores comfort to the hands, and that, we love it!
- A cream for mature skin :even if it means applying daily care to your hands, as long as it is perfectly suited to your skin type! If it begins to show signs of skin aging, including the appearance of pigment spots, do not hesitate to choose a hand cream to reduce the signs of aging. CATTIER anti-dark spot hand cream targets brown spots to reduce them thanks to the lightening and protective action of sea lily, while moisturizing and protecting your skin without leaving a greasy film.
You will see, once you have found the hand cream of your dreams with a melting and light texture, you will quickly be addicted to the daily ritual allowing you to find the softness of baby skin!
