Hand-in-Hand: Are your hands clean?


“I have two hands, the left and the right.
Hold them up high so clean and bright.
Clap them softly one, two, three.
Clean little hands are good to see.” 


 

The hands are the most frequently used part of the body; shall we say most “handy”, that means they get noticed a lot. How many times have you been impressed by a pretty face, later be turned off by her dry hands and flaked nails?
Hands are also used to communicate like in shaking hands or waving hi. So not only should you take much care of your face, take care of your hands too. Here are some tips on how to take good care of the left and right.

You must…
1. Trim down your long nails.
Have you seen the almost three-inch long nails of singer Mystica? Growing and maintaining long nails can be hard and very demanding. So why not just cut it?

2. Never bite your nails.
Remember Olive Oyle from the cartoon Popeye? When she gets stressed, she starts to trim her nails by her teeth. Yeah, it’s just a cartoon but sometimes you just can’t help to see somebody doing it. What an unattractive sight, right? Plus it only destroys and leaves your nails ugly. So share the info that you better put an end to this unhygienic practice.

3. Cut nails once a week and do this properly.
Do you know the correct way of trimming your nails? Well, if not, then read on. Your nails must be cut square-shaped, so cut the nails straight across, as if you are following an imaginary line from one side of the fingers to the other.

4. Keep your nails strong and healthy.
Nails are healthy if they are sturdy, firm, and pinkish. To attain this, eat calcium-rich foods and green leafy vegetables.

5. Have a balanced diet and drink lots of water.
Your hands tell various accounts just from the way your skin looks. To keep it well, your diet should comprise an adequate amount of fruits and veggies. Taking at least eight glasses of water is also good to keep the skin hydrated.


 6. Keep your hands clean at all times.
It is very essential to keep them clean for the reason that germ-causing infections are easily spread through shaking hands, touching, and the likes. The nails should also be clean because they can be infected too.

7. Bar soap vs Liquid soap.
Bar soaps play a part in the dryness of the hand. Instead, opt for a liquid soap with a moisturizing formula.

8. Take in a lotion habit.
Securing moisture will instantly make hands smooth, supple, and young looking.

9. Keep your hands away from the sun.
It will prevent skin damage causing dryness, wrinkles, and eventually, premature aging.

10. Wash and wear.
It is very important to wash our hands. But too much washing can easily dry the hands also so you’ll need to apply lotion after washes.
You use your hands in everything you do so better take care of them and your body. Taking proper hygienic processes will lead to healthy and fit days. Everything’s in your hands.
