No more dry, wrinkled hands with Julia Roberts' natural remedy
Hands are, together with the face and hair, the "business card" which we present to others and, for this reason, they are the most exposed and subject to premature aging. Exposed to the elements and with all the work they do, hands can get damaged and develop wrinkles prematurely.
For this reason, it is of fundamental importance to pay particular attention to your hands, in order to keep them smooth, velvety and young-looking. Each of us has our own beauty routine, but there is a key point for hand care, which everyone must take into account: hydration. This is, in fact, the foundation of keeping our skin looking fresh and young.
We suggest below some useful tips for the care of your hands, as practiced by famous actress, Julia Roberts:
Daily beauty routine
The fundamental aspect of a good hand care routine is, as we have said, hydration. And there are several ways to keep hands soft:
- always remember to protect your hands when carrying out certain jobs, for example when you have to wet them often, when you use aggressive chemicals or when you have to expose them to low temperatures.
- diet can also help you keep beautiful hands: consuming foods rich in antioxidants, vitamins and omega 3 fatty acids helps keep the skin healthier.
- apply a moisturizing cream daily - those with shea butter are excellent - which will help heal any small scratches.
- weekly, you can try Julia Roberts' remedy - an extra pampering for your hands that you can indulge in by simply opening the pantry. Read on to find out what her remedy is:
A home remedy to use once a week
Julia Roberts has revealed some of her beauty secrets, including a natural home remedy that allows her to keep her hands soft and smooth, despite their tendency to be dry.
Once a week, set aside 10 minutes to give your hands a special pampering: fill a bowl with olive oil and immerse your hands completely. This mix, very rich in fatty acids, will penetrate deeply into your skin, nourishing it and keeping it soft. Your nails will also benefit from this, as the oil will nourish them thoroughly, while also softening the cuticles and preparing them for your next manicure.
At the end of the soaking, rinse your hands off thoroughly and don't forget to use a moisturizer.
