Show Your Hands Some LOVE

Many of us take our hands for granted. We forget that we use them for almost everything and tend not to treat them very well at all.

I find hands to be as important as teeth and eyes. If you don't brush your teeth they will eventually fall out and if you don't care for your eyes you may just lose your sight.  And with hands, its just wrong not to take care of something that does so many thing for you.


So I'd like to offer you a few ways to show your hands so much needed and deserved TLC.


If Your Hands are Dry: Create a mask

Mix
1/4 ground almonds
1 beaten egg
Handful of comfrey root (optional)( more info about comfrey root below)
1 tablespoon of honey

Coat hands with mixture and put on a pair of old leather or cotton gloves. Wear over night and rinse well in the morning. Repeat for a week. Your hands will feel great.

Brittle Nails

Mix
4-6 drops of Almond extract
1/2 cup of olive oil

Heat until warm. Pour into medium to large bowl. Soak nails for 30-40 minutes. Repeat this for 3-4 days. This will dramatically improve the condition of your nails.


Daily Treatment for Hands 

At home I keep Satin Hands by Mary Kay in all my bathrooms. The 3 in 1 system is great for continued upkeep of one of your most used body parts.
The Hand Softener helps maintain skin’s natural moisture. Use it on hands before washing,
  or anywhere else skin is dry.
 Satin Smoothie Hand Scrub cleanses and exfoliates.

Comfrey root is used to relieve pain from blunt injuries, promote healing of broken bones, sprains and bruises, reduce swelling and edema, and encourage the rapid and healthy regrowth of skin and tissue cells. Because comfrey may contain PAs, which have caused cancer and liver damage in animal studies, and because the root contains it in higher concentration than the leaves, internal use is not suggested.
