You might have a perfect, glowing face but there is one part of your body that is quietly giving away your age. From wrinkles to dry patches and even peeling skin, your hands age faster than any part of your body.

Here are dermatologist-approved tips to restore your hands’ youthful glow.

Why Exactly Do Our Hands Age Faster?

Most of us do not realize this but the skin on our hands shows signs of aging earlier than other areas.

Constantly washing and using certain sanitizers which also causes the skin to lose natural oils and years of sun exposure cause hyperpigmentation and age spots.

Over time, all of this leads to dull, scaly hands that make you look older than you actually are.

5 Expert-Approved Tips to Fix It

Sunscreen is a must!

Your hands need sunscreen as much as your face does.

This is because sun exposure is a leading cause of premature skin aging. To fix this, use broad spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 daily whether you’re outdoors or in your house.

Use sunscreen with SPF while you drive, walk, or stroll and ensure that you reapply after every hand wash

Strengthen skin barrier through hydration

Your skin needs a lot of moisture especially if it’s already looking dry and wrinkled. Get hand creams that contain hyaluronic acid, ceramides or glycerin to hydrate your skin and strengthen skin barrier.

You can also use hand masks. Apply them at night before you sleep. For better, immediate results, use large amounts of hand cream at night and wear cotton gloves to seal in the moisture before you go to bed.

You would wake up to moisturized, plump skin that gradually appears more youthful.

Fade dark spots.

Dark spots are an early sign of aging and should not be ignored

Ingredients such Vitamin C, niacinamide or kojic acid help fade dark spots. You can also buy retinol-based hand creams to help pigmentation and boost collagen.

Consult your dermatologist for treatments such as laser therapy or microdermabrasion.

Try to restore elasticity and volume.

If your hands are visibly bony or there are visible vein lines, then the problem might be collagen loss.

Retinol-based creams help boost collagen but you should also see your dermatologist for other options that would restore collagen and volume like microneedling and hyaluronic acid fillers.

These procedures will help to stimulate collagen and give your hands a more youthful look.

Go easy on your hands.

While you need to maintain hygiene by washing your hands, you also need to understand that washing too frequently dry out your hand.

Also ensure you avoid harsh soaps as they can dry out your hands easily and use non-stripping moisturizer cleaners so that they don’t also dry out your hands.

Keep a moisturizer in your bag and ensure that you apply it after every wash or sanitizer use.

A simple, consistent routine with hyaluronic acid to hydrate, vitamin C to brighten, and moisturizer to prevent dryness will keep your hands smooth, soft, and supple.

Beauty routines just got more fascinating when Hailey Bieber said she had never had Botox and then revealed to everyone what she did instead.

The founder of Rhode made an appearance on Owen Thiele’s  “In Your Dreams” podcast on Friday to talk about her life lately as a parent, wife to Justin Bieber , and also the outrageous stories she sees online about herself, and of course, everything about beauty.

The 28-year-old style icon, who has previously denied rumours of plastic surgery, told Thiele, “I don’t have any Botox except in my jaw for TMJ, but I have no Botox in my face.”

“I made a commitment to myself that I wasn’t going to do any Botox until I was in my 30s. When I get there, I’ll see if I even want to do it.”

Hailey went on to say that she might follow in the footsteps of her mother, 57-year-old Kennya Baldwin, who has never received any kind of wrinkle-relieving injections. She said, “My mom does nothing to her skin and she looks insane.”

The model is “really diligent” with her skincare routine, which includes items from her billion-dollar Rhode brand as well as favourites from Avène, BeautyStat, EltaMD, Naturium, Cosrx, and more, which is not surprising for a beauty entrepreneur.

She did, however, share a few treatments that she really likes with Thiele during their conversation, indicating that she is not totally opposed to needles when it comes to maintaining the best possible complexion.

“So I love PRP [platelet-rich plasma], which is when they take your blood from your arm and they spin it. I love doing PRP with microneedling. I’ve talked about that a lot,” Hailey shared.

She enjoys receiving PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) injections in addition to having her own plasma needled back into her face. “They take your blood, but it’s called EZ Gel and basically they heat it and then they cool it, and it kind of makes your blood a gel consistency,” Hailey described. “And then you inject it. So I’ve done that, which I loved … I’ve injected my smile lines. I’ve injected it under my eyes.”

Unlike other injectables, Hailey claimed she can “trust” the material because it “is from your own body.”

“I do that a couple of times a year,” she added of PRF injections. “I’ve done light little lasers before [too], but that’s it.”

Hailey’s routine proves that great skin isn’t bought, it’s built through consistency and care. With the right guidance from a dermatologist and a steady routine, anyone can achieve healthy, glowing skin.

Tracee Ellis Ross, an award-winning actress and founder of PATTERN Beauty, has expanded her brand beyond haircare. She recently introduced PATTERN Body Skincare, a collection designed to nourish the skin with the same care her first line brought to hair.

Ross first introduced PATTERN in 2019, the brand stood out for prioritizing textured hair. Unlike many haircare lines, that focused mainly on straight or loose wavy strands, PATTERN was formulated for curls, coils and tighter textures. From conditioners to hydrating shampoos and nourishing creams, the brand quickly gained recognition for offering a full range dedicated to natural hair. Now with her step into skin care, she intends to bring that level of inclusivity to body care.

The new body line includes a dry exfoliating scrub, rich cream, hydrating lotion, body wash, and a nourishing oil. All formulas were made with moisture in mind. Natural ingredients such as shea butter, jojoba oil, and vitamin E are used in all the collections, making the products both effective and gentle.

Each product is also infused with PATTERN’s new “Midnite Amber” scent—a warm and sensual fragrance that’s unique to the body line.

Tracee describes PATTERN Body as a way of introducing self-love into every part of our lives. She said “Body is for anyone who wants to nourish, honor and celebrate their bodies. The collection is about allowing you to slough off with the scrub, a layer that might be keeping you hidden, giving your skin a chance to find inner radiance.” Her message emphasized treating the skin with the same care and respect traditionally given to hair.

The inspiration behind PATTERN Body is to help everyone to feel hydrated, soft, radiant, and above all, be confident in their skin.
