Hand cream is something we usually think about in winter, when the cold attacks us and we have no choice if we want to calm the cracks that have appeared. However, taking care of your hands with a moisturizing cream is important all year round if we want to preserve their natural beauty .

Here are 5 good reasons to apply hand cream every day, all year round:

1. The skin on the hands is very thin, especially on the top . It can therefore crack more easily if its suppleness is not maintained on a daily basis.

2. The skin on the hands does not have a sebaceous gland , so it does not produce a protective hydrolipidic film like the rest of the body. It is therefore necessary to regularly provide it with fatty substances to nourish, repair and protect it.

3. Hands are one of the most exposed parts of our daily lives, even more than our faces: sun, pollution, friction, detergents... We wash them more often, especially at the moment. They are therefore extremely attacked even though their skin is fragile.

4. For all the reasons explained above, the skin on the hands shows more signs of aging . So why take care of your face if it's going to be betrayed by your hands?

Hand cream, the important care for everyday life

5. To apply a hand cream, you don't need to have taken the time to transform your bathroom into a spa, you don't need to have time on the weekend when the kids are at sports or your other half is dozing on the couch. Hand cream is THE ON-THE-GO TREATMENT. You can apply it at any time of the day, at the office, in your car, while waiting for friends at restaurants (when they reopen :))... It's the ultimate little relaxing break, you treat yourself with a relaxing hand massage and enjoy the sweet scent of the cream to escape. If that's not a great reason to adopt hand cream on a daily basis!

There you go, now you know ;)! Applying hand cream every day, summer and winter, is THE BASIS! Depending on the season, you can opt for a light cream that penetrates quickly and is rich in moisturizing substances such as glycerin or Aloe Vera, or a richer cream with shea butter and olive oil to repair, nourish and replenish lipids.

You can apply your hand cream several times a day and to not forget, you can integrate it into your hand washing routine , just after drying them; before sleeping; when opening your computer...

Oh and of course, if we apply a natural hand cream that is healthier for the skin, we also think about using natural soaps and household products to avoid chemical attacks :)
