“How To Keep Your Hands Wrinkle-Free”

     Hands are one of the most visible parts of your body and they certainly endure a lot of physical abuse!

     You use them in everyday activity, and yet, they remain the ultimate "accessory." You should give your hands the same attention you give your face.

     Some of the things I have done in the past to ensure my hands remain in good condition and wrinkle-free can be summed up in the following tips.

     Try some of these out yourself and see the state of your hands improve!

     You should always keep your hands soft. Soft skin is less prone to wrinkling because it is moisturized and supple. To keep hands soft while doing chores, add a little almond oil (about a teaspoon) to the dish water during dish washing time.

     There are also soaks of various kinds that you can do from the comfort of your own home to improve the condition and softness of your hands.

     Wash hands thoroughly with warm water, then, using a washcloth (preferably a coarse textured cloth), rub briskly. While skin is still damp, apply a mixture of one teaspoon of honey and one teaspoon of olive oil.

     Next, place hands in small plastic bags and then into a pair of cotton gloves for thirty minutes. The tightness of the gloves and the heat from the plastic will help the treatment penetrate.

     For a Cleopatra-like hand "makeover," warm a cup of milk in the microwave for thirty seconds (until warm, but comfortable to the touch). Then, soak your hands for five minutes to strengthen nails and hydrate skin.

     This particular soak is great because milk is not only loaded with lactic acid, a natural alpha hydroxy that gently exfoliates dead skin, but its high calcium content will strengthen your fragile nails!

     If you don't have time to sit and soak, use this method to slough off dead skin cells. Create a solution using sea salt and lemon. It should be gritty to the touch. Brush it into your hands using an old toothbrush and rinse.

     This method can be used twice a week to soften hands and remove discoloration.

     Bliss has a product that works much like the cotton glove wrap above. Glamour Gloves have a special polymer gel lining that force-feeds dry skin with essential softening agents like grape seed oil, jojoba oil, olive oil and Vitamin E.

     This will keep your hands wrinkle-free over time.

     A lot of people don't realize that what we eat can have a direct effect on the way our skin will treat us.

     For hands that are wrinkle-free and beautiful, you have to eat food that is rich in carotene.

     Some ways to achieve this are:

• add grated carrots to spaghetti sauce...
• add fresh spinach leaves to salad greens...
• enjoy a daily fruit smoothie made of yogurt and fruit...
• chill melon balls in a wine glass with champagne...
• keep fresh broccoli on hand for a pre-dinner snack...
• make fruit a part of every dinner meal...
• add broccoli and fresh spinach to pasta or tomato salads...
• substitute papaya for tomato in salsa recipes...
• look for juices made from fruits high in carotene...

     These are all little dietary changes that can be done to greatly improve your skin's overall look and keep your hands wrinkle-free.
