YOUR 4 STEP HAND CARE ROUTINE Washing your hands throughout the day can lead to dry and cracked hands, as water tends to dehydrate the skin and leaves it dry and exposed to the environment. Using anti-bacterial gels frequently can also dehydrate the skin as they contain alcohol. Shea butter’s biggest benefit is that it deeply nourishes and protects the skin.
Your body and face love a good scrub – but your hands need exfoliation too. Once or twice a week, use an exfoliator that's designed for the hands and gentle on the skin, to eliminate dead skin cells and leave your hands ready to soak up all the benefits of a moisturising cream. The Shea One Minute Hand Scrub contains 10% shea butter, sweet almond and grapeseed oils – rich in Vitamin E – as well as essential fatty acids, to help nourish and soften the hands in just one minute.
Another secret to beautiful hands is strong, well-looked-after nails and protected cuticles. Your cuticles are at the base of your nails and they play a protective role – so it's important to look after them. The Shea Nail & Cuticle Nourishing Oil nourishes and softens cuticles, for stronger, shinier nails. It's important to feed your nails too. To keep them really healthy, make sure you eat foods rich in biotin, such as pulses, soybeans and almonds.
