healthy smooth hands in winter!

How to have healthy and smooth hands in winter?

2 essential things to add to your routine -

1. Hand scrub
2. Good hand cream

Hand Scrub
I am a big fan of princess Janet, who is a well known model from Taiwan. After she retired from modeling, she began a second career as a beauty book author.
She recently wrote on her blog a recipe for a home-made hand scrub. I thought it is interesting to share with my blog readers :)

Here it is the recipe -

2 Tbsp of oive oil, 1 Tbsp of honey and 1 Tbsp of brown sugar.
Mix them together and use it like regular scrub on your hands.

In case you want to see her blog entry on the hand scrub, here is the link -

Hand Creams


Here are some of my favorites:


Kiehl's hand cream: Ultimate Strength Hand Salve

L'Occitane hand cream: Shea Butter Hand Cream

Jurlique Rose Hand Cream 

Seacret Select Hand Recovery Cream -

Seacret is known for its hand and nail products. Naturally their hand cream is pretty awesome.  It's also known because its main ingredient is the mineral from the Dead Sea.

I know the Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream is highly rated in many magazines and blogs. However, it is a little too thick in my opinion. If your hands are extremely dry and skin is peeling, perhaps it works for you. 

Now, go show off your pretty and healthy hands even if it's snowing crazy outside!
