Protect + prevent: The anti-ageing treatment for your hands
When we think about skincare, we often focus on our faces ~ cleansers, serums + SPF to keep us looking youthful + radiant. But what about our hands? Hands are one of the first areas to show signs of ageing because they’re constantly exposed to the elements, especially the sun. Over time, this exposure can lead to dryness, thinning skin + the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles + age spots. The good news? You can start protecting your hands early + prevent the visible signs of ageing.
For those in their 20s + 30s, taking a “protect + prevent” approach to hand care can make all the difference. Instead of waiting until your hands feel dry + dehydrated later in life, why not start now with products designed to penetrate deeply into the dermal layers + shield + nourish your skin ~ like our Triple Ceramide Hand + Body Serum, available in a convenient 50ml travel size pump, perfect for hand + body use.
Why hands show the first signs of ageing
Hands are exposed to the sun more than any other part of our body (besides our face) + we don’t always think to protect them with sunscreen. Over time, sun exposure can break down collagen, leading to thinning skin, dark spots + a loss of elasticity. Combined with everyday wear + tear from washing, harsh weather + the natural decline of collagen as we age, hands are especially prone to showing early signs of ageing.
Protect now + prevent later
The key to youthful-looking hands is starting a hand care routine early. While it may not seem important in your 20s + 30s, starting a preventative routine now will help protect your hands from the elements + delay the visible signs of ageing. Here’s why hand care is essential:
- Collagen depletion: From the age of 25, our collagen levels begin to decline, which leads to thinner skin + more visible veins on our hands. Keeping collagen levels up through topical treatments can help maintain skin firmness.
- Sun exposure: Hands are frequently exposed to UV rays, which break down elastin + collagen. Protecting your hands early with nourishing creams or serums can slow the effects of sun damage.
- Daily wear + tear: We wash our hands often + with that comes moisture loss. Using a product with the power of ceramides + collagen can help replenish the skin’s natural barrier + lock in hydration.
