Dry & Ageing Hands

Our hands are constantly exposed to environmental stressors including UV rays, frequent washing, household cleaning products and changing weather conditions. Over time, these daily exposures can lead to dryness, roughness, pigmentation, thinning skin and the appearance of fine lines, making the hands one of the first areas to reveal visible signs of ageing.

Because the skin on the hands has fewer oil glands than many other parts of the body, maintaining hydration and protecting the skin barrier is essential for keeping hands looking and feeling healthy.

 

How to care for dry and ageing hands

A nourishing hand cream should become part of your daily routine, particularly after washing your hands. Look for ingredients such as ceramides, hyaluronic acid, shea butter, peptides, vitamin C and antioxidants to replenish moisture, improve skin texture and support firmer, smoother-looking skin.

Daily SPF shouldn't be forgotten either. The backs of the hands receive significant UV exposure throughout life, making sunscreen one of the most effective ways to help prevent premature ageing and pigmentation.

Dry, ageing hands are often associated with dry skin, pigmentation & dark spots, fine lines & wrinkles and dehydrated skin, so protecting the skin barrier while maintaining hydration can significantly improve the appearance of the hands.

Explore targeted skincare solutions from trusted professional brands including Pevonia, Phytomer, Vie Collection, Hubislab, Medicalia and Naturys, carefully selected to nourish dry hands while restoring softness, comfort and a more youthful-looking appearance.

 

Why do my hands look older than my face?

The hands are exposed to sun, weather, frequent washing and environmental damage every day, often without the same level of care as the face. Regular use of nourishing hand creams and daily sunscreen can help reduce visible signs of ageing.
