We give a lot of time and effort to care for the skin on our face. But other parts of the body such as; the skin on our hands or feet isn’t cared for much. As a result, the skin on our hands become dull and rough over time. And now that we are cleaning our hands often with handwash or sanitizer, it is making the skin on our hands even more dry. Also, we face a thousand problems with skin in Winter! So all in all, it's important to take a little extra care for the skin on your hands.
