Hands
8 years ago by Carie Packard
Je sais que ce n’est pas exactement de saison, mais j’y pense tous les jours, toute l’année, et notamment ces derniers temps…
Quand il fait chaud et moite dehors, j’ai l’impression d’avoir les mains sales à peu près 12 minutes après les avoir lavées. Ce qui fait que mes cuticules sont extra-sèches et que j’ai des petites peaux autour des ongles. Avec le métro, la saleté de la ville, les pauses-pipi… je passe mon temps à me laver les mains et elles sont salement abimées. En plus, la météo poisseuse ne donne pas très envie de mettre de la crème hydratante. Il faut que je trouve une façon de m’occuper de mes cuticules sans avoir les mains toutes grasses ou être obligée de me retenir d’aller aux toilettes.
Si vous avez des recommandations, des astuces ou des produits naturels, je suis preneuse !
Lather up in heavy lotion before you go to bed! My favorite is Body Shop’s hemp hand cream! You can even add some oil or eight hour cream on nails and cuticles and put some cotton gloves on not to stain sheets. Purrfect paws all day long!
Organic, unprocessed coconut oil — you’ll smell like the beach!
I feel you. A rich cuticle cream helps, I like Mavala. Otherwise mini-tube of hand cream in your bag, on your desk, everywhere.
what about this: http://www.nealsyardremedies.com/bath-and-body/body/hand-care/0115.html
The Lotus Wei serums (essential oil and flower essence based) are amazing light but fantastically hydrating.
do you know the brand Mavala? it’s really good. :-)
I’ve heard that facial mists are good for the face, you can make your own one for your hands for gentle cleaning (to keep on your desk) with some soapy water and then wipe off with a cloth/tissue. You can then moisturise your hands and nails with a gentle oil.
Alternatively how about wipes for a thorough clean, when travelling I use lavender disinfectant wipes or baby wipes.

Not sure if you can get this in the States but it’s great.
Trop fascinee par les bagues pour repondre a cet article !
Nice post as always!

OPI Avoplex Cuticle Oil To Go is my miracle for cuticles. I also keep the bottle version of this oil at home so I can slather it on my nails anytime and always, last thing at night.
You have to moisturise regularly. Try the hand lotions from Caudalie or l’Occitane (The Almond range). They are non-greasy and disappear within seconds.
If you really don’t want to lotion up, a tiny amount of shea butter or an oil on damp hands is quite good.
I presume you apply primarily to the backs of your hands and work in the excess into your palms. That’s the best way to avoid any stickiness.
You might try layering on lots of good hand cream overnight and sleeping with cotton gloves on (it helps the hand cream to sink in). Once a week should be enough.

I swear by the Essie Apricot Cuticle Oil! It truly moisturizes your cuticles and skin, plus it smells great! It’s also a great first step for a mani/pedi- Massage the oil in, leave it be for 10 minutes, then you can carefully push back the cuticles and voila!
You can also apply it in between to freshen up your manicure!
As a hand creme (summer and winter) I love the men’s Jack Black Hand Healer (their lip balm is amazing too- how dare the guysjust keep that secret to themselves..). It even keeps your hands moisturized after you wash them!
Or just go for the allrounder: coconut oil. But that I only use that every 1-2 weeks as an intense mask…
Les baaagues! Elles viennent d’où? Gros coup de coeur…
Put the lotion or oil only on the backs of your hands during the day – just put it on the back of one and then only rub the backs of your hands together so your palms stay un-gooped up. I use a light oil and then put on sunscreen the same way. I even try to wash just the palms of my hands through the day so the backs of my hands stay moisturized and sunscreen-ed. Kinda weird, I know, but it usually works pretty well for the most part.
Tu devrais régulièrement hydrater tes mains avec du beurre de karité ou de l’huile de coco !
Why not try Dr. Hauschka Neem Nail and Cuticle Pen? Nurtures those cuticles and keeps them soft. Plus, your hands won’t get greasy. I always have one pen like this in my bag!
