There are multiple factors that can lead to moisture loss in the skin of our hands, resulting in dryness, splits, cracks, and even painful tears. Cold weather, exposure to chemicals, and frequent washing up can all contribute to drying out our hands.

Symptoms of moisture loss in the skin of our hands include:

  • Skin feels rough to the touch
  • Tightness in the skin, particularly when exposed to cold air or washing up liquid
  • Small white flakes or visible peeling skin on the knuckles or between the fingers
  • Bleeding from small cracks and splits in the skin
  • Persistent itching
  • Increased sensitivity

How to treat the moisture loss of the skin on the hands

We use hemp seed oil and seaweed extract in our Intensive Hydrating Hand Lotion and Intensive Anti-ageing Hand Serum, and used together, they give incredible treatment results.

Apply the Intensive Hydrating Hand Lotion after washing your hands to reap the nourishing and hydrating benefits, and apply the Intensive Anti-Ageing Hand Serum before bed, and you’ll wake up with hands that look smoother and younger.

The hemp seed oil and seaweed extract in our formulations are key to their effectiveness. Hemp seed oil contains all 20 amino acids needed to boost collagen and elastin production, while seaweed extract is rich in antioxidants, including palythine, which protects the skin from oxidative stress, cell damage, and premature ageing. Keep these products within reach and use them regularly – carry the smaller sizes in your handbag, car, or keep them on your desk at work for easy access.
