WINTER HAND THERAPY Winter often means dry, cracked, chapped hands -- a seasonal hazard. Our
hands are first exposed to indoor dry heat and then exposed to harsh outdoor
conditions. Often, your favorite or regular moisturizer seem less
effective. Here are some tips to help your hands this Winter, as well as a
fun bath recipe to try and share with a friend. Who doesn't enjoy an
aromatic bath on a cold winter's night?
Drink
plenty of water and consider using a humidifier to add moisture to
your environment. Wash
Gently. Detergent-laden soaps are drying to the skin, so try a
milder herbal soap. Switch
Moisturizers. In the summer when living is easy and humidity high, a
light moisturizer is fine. However, when winter arrives, you need heavy
duty hand care to soothe and rehydrate. Keep your hand cream accessible --
in your purse, at your desk, in your kitchen, on the bathroom vanity, and by
your computer monitor and television. Apply often. Pamper
your hands with a few home spa treats. Once a week, try our
super-moisturizing treatment: Soak your hands in hot water with a few
tablespoons of baking soda, for thirty minutes. Dry your hands, and apply our
Winter Hand Mask as directed, below. Winter
Hand Mask 3
tablespoon oatmeal 2
tablespoons rose water 2
teaspoons almond oil Crush and
mix all ingredients in a mortar with a pestle. Then, heat mixture
gently -- just to the warm stage, in your microwave. Carefully apply
your mask to your winter sore hands, wrap in cling film, or, a clean towel.
Allow to remain on your hands until cool. Rinse. Stores
very well. Would you like to share our
recipes with others, or print them on your own website? Please feel
