CORONAVIRUS CARE :: BEST HAND CREAMS TO USE TO KEEP HANDS MOISTURIZED

hand washing

As the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 continues to spread, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has instructed us to wash our hands regularly (and properly) to prevent the spread. We should be scrubbing for at least 20 seconds, use alcohol-based hand sanitizers and washing down surfaces with Chlorox wipes. We have all been practicing high levels of hygiene habits, but with that comes the price of dry and cracked skin. For this reason, I comprised my list of the best hand creams to use to keep our hands moisturized during these days.

WHY DOES FREQUENT WASHING CAUSE DRY SKIN?

The benefits of frequent hand washing is obvious -germs and dirt are rinsed away. However, with that comes the price of losing protective oils in our skin, causing it to dry out and crack. Being a mom, my hands were already super dry from endless washing — but now they have reached new heights.

SERUMKIND BLACK BLOSSOM

Let’s all take hand cream up a notch with Serumkind’s advanced skincare hand serum! I love this Korean Serumkind brand because of its scientifically backed efficacy and potency and this new product of theirs is no different. The Serumkind Black Blossom Hand serum is packed with Black Tulip Powdered Extract (which fortifies the skin barrier and smooths skin texture), Beta-glutan (which makes the skin feel more supple by heightening elasticity) and Acetyl Octapeptide-3 (which helps reduce the appears of wrinkles and promotes youthful skin). And the smell is divine as there are hints of rose, magnolia and jasmine that you love reapplying!

WELEDA SKINFOOD

At $9.89 a pop, what’s not to love? My friend Ali Brooks introduced me to Weleda — and she’s now our favorite mutual friend. Weleda feels like LA MER by Creme de la Mer, but super affordable and with an almost perfect Amazon score (with over 6,000 reviews!).

COCONUT OIL

Also on my list of the best hand creams to wear during the day is not a cream at all, but good ol fashioned coconut oil! It’s a super-effective (and anti-aging) moisturizer and you can find it at any grocery store!

SEOULFULL SKINFOOD

Seoulfull’s primary ingredient is watermelon seed oil – which is super nurturing for dry skin. It protects and moisturizes with antioxidants, minerals, and unsaturated fatty acids. Slather up! You can buy online or purchase at The Kimpton Hotel’s GBK Brand Bar which was recently written up in Forbes.
