At the end of February, hands are especially tired: months of gloves, hot water, dry air and frequent washing take their toll. The skin becomes rough, the cuticle cracks, and even a good cream does not help.
But there is no need to run to the store for expensive masks. Just two ingredients from the kitchen cupboard are enough, and in the morning you will feel that your skin is as soft as a child’s, your cuticles are soft, without hangnails, and your hands are ready for spring.
What you will need:
liquid honey – 1 tbsp. l.
olive or almond oil – 1 tbsp. l.
cotton gloves or socks
How to do:
- Combine honey and oil in a small bowl.
- Apply the mixture to clean, dry hands, paying special attention to the cuticles and back.
- Massage for 1-2 minutes. This will enhance microcirculation.
- Wear cotton gloves or cut-off socks.
- Leave it overnight.
- In the morning, rinse with warm water. If stickiness remains, wipe with a damp cloth.
Do this 1-2 times a week, and after 10 days your hands will look well-groomed even without polish.
