What to do if your hand lines are deep and rough

Hands are a woman’s second face, which shows that hands can have a great impact on a person’s overall image. However, many people's hands are not good-looking, especially many people have deep and rough lines on their hands. In fact, rough hands can be improved through certain methods. Here I will introduce several methods in detail. I believe that as long as you can persist in using these methods, you can still improve the roughness of your hands.

1. Olive oil, sugar and massage can cure roughness.

As we age, collagen and elastin levels in the skin begin to decline, wrinkles appear, and the skin loses its elasticity. Sun exposure will accelerate the aging process of the skin. In severe cases, it will cause the skin to become rough and hard, and even cause skin cancer. Experts say that rubbing the skin with household olive oil and sugar can help treat rough skin. Rub and massage the back of your hands with 1/4 teaspoon of olive oil and sugar once a week for excellent results.

2. Apply moisturizer after washing your hands at night.

Choose hand care products that contain the same ingredients as your facial moisturizer. For example, products rich in lactic acid (keratin softening and moisturizing effects), moisturizing urea, and natural organic acids that act as keratin exfoliants. These ingredients help keep skin moisturized and soft, says Eric Siegel, a dermatologist in New Jersey. Applying a hand moisturizer after washing your hands at night will help lock in moisture and prevent dryness.

3. Apply hand cream every day to avoid sunburn.

To prevent wrinkles, spots and skin cancer, it is best to use a hand cream with an SPF of at least 25. Hand cream also contains glycerin, a rich emollient, and should be applied several times a day.

4. Repair ointment to protect nails.

In your 30s, your body starts to produce less oil, and your nails become dry and prone to breaking or turning yellow. Experts say that if black spots appear on your nails, you need to be aware of the risk of skin cancer. Applying a repair ointment containing a vaseline base can help repair skin and nail damage on both hands, while also preventing dehydration of the hands, making the nails stronger and more elastic.

5. Wash your hands with warm water to prevent drying.

The skin on your hands becomes dry over time. Excessive hand washing, not wearing gloves, and using inferior cleaning agents can cause the skin on your hands to become rough and dry. Using the right moisturizer can keep your hands soft and not tight, and prevent your hands' natural protective oil layer from being stripped away. In addition, it is best to wash your hands with warm water. Washing your hands with water that is too hot will also cause your hands to dry out.

6. Night cream can eliminate fine lines and chloasma.

Prolonged exposure of hands to ultraviolet rays can easily lead to pigmentation and the formation of freckle-like chloasma. Earlier, people believed that these spots were caused by abnormal liver function, so they were also called "liver spots". Experts say night creams or facial balms containing retinol can help reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and fine lines on the face and hands.
