6 Ways to Prevent Dry Cracked Hands this Winter
Our top tips for smooth, hydrated skin all season long.
Winter’s coming for your hands, but we’re not letting dry, cracked skin ruin the vibe. With the right combo of moisture, cuticle care, and smart habits, you can keep your hands soft and your nails thriving all season long. Keep scrolling for our top 6 tips to stay smooth, glowing, and totally winter-proof.
1. Moisturize
Your #1 cold-weather hero? Moisturizer! Leave skin feeling smoother, softer, and hydrated with our Moisture Mission Hand and Foot Cream. Its emollient-rich formula features our signature MoodBloom Scent Technology™ that helps boost your feeling of skin-ner peace.
2. Exfoliate
If you’re already seeing signs of dry, cracked hands, use our Smooth It Out Hand and Foot Scrub to slough away any dry areas, then rinse and pat dry. Immediately add a moisturizer to both hands and massage gently.
3. Cuticle Care
Cuticles need a lil TLC? Try our Glow Up Nail and Cuticle Oil, a lightweight treatment enriched with oils and vitamin E. For a quick, on-the-go solution, keep a bottle of Good as Gold Cuticle Serum in your bag. Its sleek pen design lets you moisturize and soften your cuticles, anywhere, anytime.
Need a more intense solution?
To the Rescue Overnight Cuticle Balm is for you! Perfect for slugging, add it to your bedtime routine and wake up to softer feeling, healthier-looking cuticles.
4. Wear Gloves
Protect your hands from wind and chill (and look cute!) with a pair of nice quality outdoor gloves. When inside, be sure to wear rubber gloves when washing dishes or using chemical cleaners to help prevent dry, cracked hands.
5. Stay Dry
Be sure to dry hands thoroughly after washing, as excess water can cause chapping. If given the choice between an automatic dryer or a paper towel, opt for the latter. The hot air can dry out your hands even more in the winter.
6. Maintain
Dry hands can be difficult to treat if you wait too long, so carry a moisturizer like Moisture Mission Hand and Foot Cream with you at all times! Treat cracks as soon as you notice any symptoms.
Now that your hands are pampered, it’s time to do your mani! Catch our top tips for a DIY manicure at home here.
