Question

How can a man have soft smooth hands and fingernails?

any advice? ladies

Answer 1

Lotion is a good start.

Wear gloves whenever you need to work on something to avoid getting callouses.

Answer 2

First, I would get a manicure just to clean your hands up and get you off to a good start.

After that, using a good hand lotion daily (and every handwashing) should be good.

Arbonne makes an EXCELLENT Aromatherapy sea salt scrub that will leave your hands soft and smooth for hours and hours.

Answer 3

First you should stick with the basics and just use some lotion every day(but not to much, cause that might not work as well).But if that doesn't work you should call your docter for advice

Answer 8

1/2 cup warm milk, 2 tsp sugar, 2 tsp plain yogurt and a few drops of lavendar essential oil. Soak your hands/fingers in this mix for about 5 minutes. Then do a scrub, nail/cuticle care, massage and polish.

Gloves are also the ideal tool to keep your hands soft and supple indoors.

Purchase a pair of very thin, unlined cotton gloves (if you can't find them at a store near you, try www.camillebeckmanonline.com), along with a super-rich moisturizing hand cream. Avoid any creams that contain mineral oil, since they will not actually penetrate the skin. Instead, seek out ones containing emollient natural oils like coconut, almond, hemp and olive.

Before going to bed, slather on a layer of cream on both hands, being sure to reach between each finger and knuckle, as well as the entire palm from top to bottom. Carefully place the gloves on, making certain you are not removing the cream with the gloves as you slide them on, but rather, covering the cream with the gloves and keeping it in place.
Upon awakening, remove the gloves and wipe your hands in a clean towel to remove the excess cream. Your own body heat, held in by the gloves, helps to allow the cream to do its magic and keep them as soft as can be. By doing this several times per week (or even daily for those more prone to winter-rough skin), you'll lock in moisture, and keep away the dryness, with silky smooth hands. (And, don’t forget to get yourself a new pair of ultra-warm gloves for outdoors, too!)
