But dont worry, Ive got you covered.
Heres a guide on how to look after your hands and nails after spending time under the hot sun.
The skin of our hands is thinner and has less oil glands than any other part of the body.
Your nails can also stand a tough time especially if you work outside most parts of the day.
Exposure to water and sand can make them frail or even break ut.
Well, guess thats why they need some tenderness, love and care as well, dont they?
And the first thing that is very important to know about post-sun care is simply about water.
After your hands have been outdoors all day, they are really screaming for attention in terms of hydration.
Avoid products with unpleasant chemicals such as parabens and fragrances such as flowery scents.
This aids in locking in the moisture on skin and your skin will remain smooth for the entire period.
Put a bottle of hand cream somewhere, for instance by the side of the bed.
It is best applied before going to bed.
You will wake up with smooth and moisturized hands in the morning prepared to face the new day.
Your skin will thank you!
The one thing to remember here is that it must be gentle.
you could make a super simple scrub with just two ingredients: sugar and olive oil.
Wash with warm water and you shall be left with smooth silky skin.
Jojoba beads or ground walnut shells are some of the contents you should consider when choosing the scrubs.
These are usually finer and less harsh to the skin especially if one is experiencing fragile skin.
From sunscreen, saltwater and sand, your nails arent spared after a whole day outing.
Especially use those which contain vitamin E, jojoba oil or almond oil.
Sunscreen, Always!
If you are like me, probably not as frequent as we are expected to do it.
Im also a big fan of hand creams that come with SPF.
Its a simpleway to keep your hands softand protected at the same time.
They will completely be rejuvenated and soft to the feel.
Choose those containing water retaining ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, aloe or shea butter among other natural elements.
Put them on, lie down for 15-20 minutes and let it do all the work for you.
This will enable you to avoid having brittle nails that keep on breaking.
Just wait and see, they will be grateful to you for that!
