In these strange times we try to adhere to the precautions as much as we can which means we wash our hands a lot more than we normally would. Many researches and studies have shown that continuously washing your hands with soap is the best way to stop spreading germs and diseases. A good hand hygiene is our responsibility to keep ourselves and others healthy.
The best ways to wash our hands
It’s not just about how often we wash our hands but also the way how we do it. A lot of people don’t take the time to properly wash their hands but it is oh-so important. These are some guidelines: always wash your hands with running water, use liquid soap and spread this across your entire hands, nails and fingers! Wash your hands long enough to be sure no soap residues stay behind. Turn off the water using a paper towel and dry your hands thoroughly with a paper towel as well.
Nourish your hands
Because we wash our hands a lot more than we normally would, a lot of people will start to suffer from dry hands, eczema, irritations and small wounds. Making it even more important to use the right soap. Cheap soaps may get the job done but their ingredients are often far more aggressive. Cheap soaps often contain sulphates and chemical preservations, both are aggressive ingredients that do get the job done but dry your hands out a lot as well in the process. Luckily the cosmetic industry came up with plenty alternative ingredients that are more skin-friendly. The nourishing and hydrating handwash by Umami Exclusive Cosmetics contain argan oil. This rich and nourishing oil makes your skin feel delightfully soft and supple again. Moreover, it also naturally restores the skin allowing it to glow like never before.
Extra care
Well, we have given you pretty much all the knowhows and tips you need to properly wash your hands. But it is quite likely that your hands are already dry. To nourish and restore your skin we advise using a hand cream as well. The rich Umami Exclusive Cosmetics hand cream contains allantoin, aloe vera and bisabolol. These ingredients help to restore and regenerate your skin, they also have a mild and soothing effect on sensitive and irritated skin. The best advise is to royally apply cream on your hands before going to bed. By doing so your skin can restore overnight, one or two more applications during the day should be enough.
Take care!
