Here&#8217;s How To Save Them From Cracking"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>When temperatures drop or we have to clean our hands more frequently than usual (something that\u2019s become a norm during today\u2019s coronavirus pandemic), our hands take a beating. They&#8217;re left cracked and dry, in desperate need of hydration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur skin is not smooth like a wall; it\u2019s more like a cobblestone street,\u201d explains board certified dermatologist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.montgomery-dermatology.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Erum Ilyas<\/a>, M.D., M.B.E., F.A.AD. \u201cOur skin cells make up the bricks, and the mortar that holds them together is made up of lipids, ceramides, wax esters, and proteins that protect our skin.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The alcohol in hand sanitizers and surfactants in hand soap can dry out skin, breaking down its natural barriers, Ilyas says. As a result, our hands feel cracked and dried.<\/p>\n<p>That breakdown also affects our immunity. \u201cOnce our skin dries out and the barrier function it serves starts to break apart, it becomes inflamed,\u201d explains Ilyas. This affects the ability of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/probiotic-skin-care\/\">skin\u2019s immune cells<\/a> to protect us from infection and allergens.<\/p>\n<p>As many of us try to sterilize our hands more than ever before, it\u2019s crucial to keep them hydrated and healthy. Here are six dermatologist-approved tips.<\/p>\n<!-- Shortcode [rr-products] does not match the conditions -->\n<h2><strong>1. Apply Moisturizer After Washing<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>After every single time you wash your hands, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/natural-skin-care\/\">apply moisturizer<\/a> to replace the natural loss in the process. Ilyas suggests looking for ingredients like shea butter, cocoa butter, or coconut oil. She likes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/p\/cocoa-butter-blend-12-5-oz-oil\/em-0102\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SheaMoisture Soothing Hydration Cocoa Butter Blend, <\/a>\u00a0which strikes a nice balance between hydrating hands and protecting the skin.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>2. Forget the<\/strong><strong>\u00a0Hand Wipes<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cThough wipes are easy to use when in a bind, like right before a meal or while traveling, they contain preservatives to keep them moist in the packet,\u201d Ilyas warns. \u201cI have seen lots of sensitivities and allergies to these preservatives, so I suggest sticking with hand sanitizers or soap and water.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>3. Choose A Hand Soap That Contains Aloe Vera<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>To protect your skin cells and thoroughly clean your hands without <em>totally <\/em>drying them out with hand-washing, Ilyas recommends looking for a soap that includes aloe vera, which has soothing properties.<\/p>\n<p>One of her go-to\u2019s: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/p\/hand-wash-soothing-aloe-vera-shea-butter-8-oz\/sof0013\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">South of France Shea Butter Hand Wash with Soothing Aloe Vera<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>4. Say No to Fragrances<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Whether you\u2019re using hand soap or sanitizer, avoid products that contain fragrances\u2014especially if you use them frequently.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe more you wash your hands, the harder it is to keep up with rehydrating them,\u201d says Ilyas. \u201cIf you use scented products, your skin may start to develop sensitivities to the fragrance that makes healing even harder.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nice as these products may smell, the scent isn\u2019t worth the price you may pay if you use them constantly.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>5. Wear Gloves When Cleaning<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Many cleaning products can be harsh on your skin, and may further dry out or inflame your hands, says Ilyas. (Same goes for solvents, glues, dyes, and resins.)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHelp your hands out and think about wearing gloves when using these products,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>6. Wear Petroleum Jelly And Gloves At Night<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>To show your hands some extra TLC, coat your hands in petroleum jelly or a thick moisturizer and cover them with cotton gloves at night. This can help restore your skin\u2014especially in early stages of dryness, suggests Ilyas.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>When To Talk To A Dermatologist About Your Dry Hands<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cGiven the concerns today for virus spread, people are using hand sanitizers and washing more than ever,\u201d says Ilyas. As a result, cases of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/diseases-conditions\/dermatitis-eczema\/symptoms-causes\/syc-20352380\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">dermatitis<\/a> (a.k.a. skin irritation) are popping up left and right.<\/p>\n<p>If your skin is red, inflamed, sore, or uncomfortable, or you notice cracks or fissures in your skin, call your dermatologist.\u00a0In this case, a prescription topical steroid or nonsteroidal cream may best help heal your skin, Ilyas says.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When temperatures drop or we have to clean our hands more frequently than usual (something that\u2019s become a norm during today\u2019s coronavirus pandemic), our hands take a beating.
