Brilio.net - The aging process of the skin does not only occur on the face, but also on the skin of the hands. Hands that look wrinkled definitely make your appearance less attractive, less confident, and of course uncomfortable. Moreover, when shaking hands with other people, wrinkles on the skin of the hands can be clearly felt.
Wrinkles on the hands can occur because the production of collagen and elastin in the skin decreases. The lack of collagen and elastin, which are important proteins, causes the skin to lose its natural elasticity and moisture. So the skin on your hands slowly begins to appear wrinkles and fine lines.
It's not only caused by aging. Wrinkles on the hands can also occur due to sun exposure. Excessive sun exposure without protection can cause damage. UV rays can damage collagen and elastin fibers, causing the skin to experience premature aging.
Apart from natural factors, wrinkles on the hands can appear due to daily habits such as using soap and washing hands with warm water too often. This habit can make the skin on your hands look wrinkled.
To overcome this, you can carry out routine maintenance. Starting from using moisturizer, for example hand body, applying sunscreen, and avoiding bad habits that cause dry skin.
If you have done all these things, don't forget to balance it with topical treatment. As done by beauty vlogger via the YouTube channel @praktisi-deepasahni. By uploading a short video, he uses curd, potatoes and lemon juice, without mixing it with bananas .
Curd which comes from processed milk contains lactic acid. This content is believed to be able to gently exfoliate the skin by removing dead skin cells and stimulating the regeneration of new skin cells.
Then potatoes contain vitamin C and antioxidants which help stimulate collagen production. Its anti-inflammatory properties are believed to help relieve skin inflammation and reduce signs of aging. Even potatoes contain enzymes and substances that help brighten the skin.
Meanwhile, lemon juice contains vitamin C which helps stimulate collagen production and brightens the skin. The astringent properties in lemon are effective in narrowing pores and making skin look smoother. The mild exfoliating properties in lemon are claimed to remove dead skin cells and stimulate the regeneration of new skin cells.
