Lending a hand Washing up, gardening, tapping the keyboard, fixing things…Hands go through a lot. Look after them with natural hand care that keeps things nourished, protected – and looking younger for longer. Gentle washing Yes, clean hands are necessary for keeping germs at bay, but astringent soaps can dry out hands and make them feel tight, chapped and sore. Instead, wash hands with gentle cleansers such as Billie Goat Soap Hand & Body Wash – its nourishing Goat's Milk & Olive Oil is great for keeping hands moisturised, while the foaming action cleverly cuts back on water usage. Alternatively try Mukti Lemon Myrtle Hand Wash, which is both antibacterial and super gentle on hands. Well nourished So often hands are exposed to the elements. Give them some extra protection with barrier-forming hand creams that won’t wash off with the first rinse. Shea butter, wheat germ, jojoba and rosehip are all great for nourishing and protecting hands against the elements so make sure they feature in your hand cream if hands are suffering. Hands not afraid to get down and do some good ol’ fashion hard work? Enlist Gardener’s Hand Butter pre and post gardening. This emollient cream has heavy doses of shea butter, jojoba and wheat germ oil to protect, sooth and recondition work-worn hands. For a more day-to-day option, try sorbolene and mineral oil-free Mukti Hand & Body Lotion. It’s super nourishing but won’t leave hands greasy. Great nails Nourished and well-conditioned hands are immediately let down if nails are looking a tad daggy. Keep them filed neatly (short and blunt is the current favoured shape) and keep cuticles soft and clipped back. To avoid painful hangnails, dry flaky skin around the nails and brittle cuticles, invest in deeply conditioning oils such as Emma Organics Nail Oil. Dosed with biodynamic avocado oil, organic rosehip oil and olive leaf extract, a daily application of this little gem will protect nails from drying out and keep cuticles looking pristine.
