Hands are one of the parts of our body most exposed to external agents, frequent washing, temperature changes and aggressive detergents. Since the skin on the back of the hands is very thin and poor in sebaceous glands, it tends to dehydrate easily, resulting in roughness, redness and annoying cracking.
Constant hand care is not just an aesthetic issue, but a real gesture of protection of the skin barrier.
Let's find out why hands chap so easily and how to restore softness and deep hydration to them.
The main causes of dry hands
To prevent dehydration, it is essential to understand which factors alter the hydrolipidic film of the skin:
-
Frequent washing and aggressive soaps: The continuous use of unsuitable soaps or alcoholic sanitizers removes the skin's natural defenses.
-
Climatic factors: The winter cold, the wind, but also the summer sun and salt accelerate the loss of hydration.
-
Manual work and contact with household detergents: The absence of protection during household chores or outdoor activities stresses the epidermis.
3 Golden Rules for Hand Care
-
Dry your hands well: Leaving your hands damp after washing promotes dehydration through evaporation. Always dry them by dabbing them gently, even between your fingers.
-
Use warm water: Water that is too hot tends to dissolve the skin's protective lipids, while water that is too cold stimulates redness in the capillaries.
-
Apply the cream regularly: Don't wait until your hands are visibly chapped. Applying a small amount of hand cream several times a day creates a continuous protective shield.
