Spring is finally here — the sun is shining, flowers are blooming, and the garden is calling. But while we enjoy the beauty of the season, our hands have a lot to handle right now. Whether it’s spring cleaning or planting in the garden, our hands are hard at work around the clock.
The skin on the back of our hands is thin and has only limited ability to protect itself from external stressors, which is why it needs extra moisture and care. And dry, chapped hands aren’t just a winter problem — they can happen all year round.
Daily hand care – a must for beautiful and healthy hands
Our hands are exposed to constant stress every day: water, cleaning agents, and various environmental factors take their toll. The result? They can become dry, rough, and cracked – especially when the skin is left unprotected for too long. But no worries – with the right care, you can protect your hands from drying out and restore softness and comfort.
3 basic tips for your hand care
1. Use a mild soap that cleanses thoroughly without drying out the skin unnecessarily
2. If you wash your hands frequently throughout the day — for example, for work — apply a light hand cream afterwards each time
3. Don’t just apply hand cream at night, but also BERFORE activities that put extra strain on your hands, such as gardening.
Especially during gardening season or spring cleaning, it’s important to moisturize your hands after every contact with water or cleaning agents. This keeps the skin optimally nourished and protected. Even if you wear gloves while working, don’t skip hand care — mechanical stress can also challenge the skin.
Botanical ingredients for beautiful and healthy hands
Nature provides us with plenty of treasures that nourish and soothe the skin. Especially beneficial for hand care are plant-based glycerin, chamomile, wild rose and lavender extracts, and aloe vera. These ingredients not only moisturize but also help regenerate and calm the skin — perfect for soothing hands after a long day of gardening or housework.
