It\u2019s a good idea to wear gloves whenever you are washing the dishes or cleaning your sinks, tubs and showers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Be selective about what you wash with: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bar soaps are great for our body, but not when it comes to washing our hands multiple times a day. Look for hand cleansers that are sulphate-free, contain antioxidants, vitamins and gentler, natural ingredients such as Aloe vera, olive oil or Shea Butter to provide your skin with much-needed moisture.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Always have moisturer with you: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Applying hand cream is a must when taking care of our hands. Make it as convenient as possible so that you never forget. Keep a tube of hand cream next to your sink, your bedside table, in your purse, gym bag, on your desk and even in the cupholder of your car. Wash, pat skin dry and then apply your hand cream while skin is still damp. This is the best way to lock in moisture and get soft, silky skin.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Don\u2019t forget your hands when applying sunscreen: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Make applying sunscreen to your hands a daily ritual, just like applying SPF to your face. The skin on the back of our hands are very delicate and prone to sunspots \u2013 remember to keep them protected when driving, bike riding and even mowing the lawn.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Pamper your hands before bedtime: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A good hand care routine starts at night. Keep a tube of hand cream on your nightstand and apply it before you go to sleep. Add this simple step to your evening routine, and you\u2019ll wake up with beautifully soft and hydrated hands.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Not sure which hand products to try?
