Youthful - Looking Hands

Have you ever wondered why some ladies look extremely gorgeous that you can't even tell their age yet their hands look aged ?  

This is because the skin on your hands can give away your age (aging signs) Age spots, fine lines, wrinkles and loose skin on the opposite side of your palms and this is one area that you can't hide with makeup. Some simple beauty habits will help ensure you're not lending Mother Nature a hand when it comes to your skin's aging process. Preventive measures are your best bet for maintaining youthful-looking hands.

Anyways there are some ways to make your hands look younger that you would never expect,which is a good thing.

• Moisturize Moisturize Moisturize If this is not a word that caught your attention until this point, let me repeat Moisturize!. Your hands are suckers for a good soaking of lotions, oils, and attention. Do research on what works best for your skin type. Then do it! There are few things better for the skin than paying attention to it, cleaning it gently and moisturizing it deeply. Your hands will say thank you by making you proud every time you show them off.

• Manicures Are Not Just a Luxury A good manicure is a necessary luxury for younger looking hands. Having your hands and nails dipped, snipped, and clipped, massaged, moisturized, and dunked in paraffin wax is not only one of the greatest pleasures in life, it is also the road to happy hands. Just like hair color, make sure the nail colors you choose accent your best traits, not your years. Beautiful new colors come out almost continuously. Just like the men in your life, pick and choose until you find the right ones! lol

• Use Mild Soaps and Shampoos Anti-bacterial soft soap is fine for keeping your hands clean but beware of bar soap with harsh chemicals. Also, stay clear of shampoos containing sulfate. It's drying not only for your hands but also for your scalp and hair. 

• Exercise Your Hands  Your hands need exercise just as the rest of your body does. Make every effort keep your hands and fingers agile. Playing the piano or another musical instrument can help,simply wiggling your fingers and then clenching and opening your fist. (you can buy a "squeeze ball") . You'll be strengthening your hands and making them look a whole lot better at the same time!

•  Eat Your Veggies and Take Your Vitamins Finally, a rough skin on your hands along with brittle nails are often signals that you're not getting enough vitamins and minerals. Supplements can't take the place of a healthy diet, but they can boost your daily intake of the nutrients you need. Heed your hands warning signs that you're depriving yourself of the good nutrition you need for overall health and vitality.
