Brilio.net - You may have felt rough skin on your hands. Usually rough hands are also accompanied by a skin texture that forms wrinkles. Rough hand skin conditions make some people feel uncomfortable. Apart from aging, rough hand skin is also caused by daily activities that require you to work physically.
Then another daily habit, namely washing your hands too often, can remove the natural oils on the skin, thereby triggering irritation. Apart from that, cold and windy weather conditions, as well as low air humidity can cause the skin to become dry .
To make hand skin smooth again, many people rely on body lotion. Not without reason, using this body lotion is quite practical and has effective benefits for treating dry skin. Apart from using body lotion, there is another alternative method, namely using a mask made from natural ingredients.
These natural ingredients are recommended by a doctor named Arsalan Aspires. By uploading a video on his YouTube channel @ArsalanAspires, he uses two ingredients, namely eggs and pure honey. These two kitchen ingredients are known to have benefits for skin beauty, especially in softening rough and dry hands.

"You can even mix olive oil and sugar. Olive oil functions as a good moisturizer, it can keep your hands supple and hydrated," said Doctor Arsalan in his video, reported by briliobeauty.net from his YouTube channel.
According to Doctor Arsalan, eggs can help bind tissue to the skin. The presence of fatty acids, zinc and vitamin B2 in eggs can tighten the skin and soften the hands. Egg yolks also contain various important vitamins and minerals, including vitamin A, vitamin E, and selenium which help repair and rejuvenate the skin.
Meanwhile, honey contains natural humectant properties that can help draw moisture into the skin, making the skin on your hands feel soft and smooth. The anti-inflammatory properties in honey can help reduce inflammation of the skin.

Honey and eggs are claimed to brighten the skin
Honey and eggs are foods that are believed to brighten dull skin. Not without reason, honey and eggs have a number of ingredients that make your hands glow.
Honey contains natural enzymes that can help brighten the skin by reducing the production of melanin (the pigment that gives the skin its dark color). The antioxidant content in honey helps fight damage caused by free radicals which can cause premature aging and make skin look dull.
Meanwhile, eggs contain vitamin A, vitamin E and selenium. These ingredients help repair, rejuvenate and tighten the skin. The presence of amino acids in eggs can fade hyperpigmentation, so your skin looks bright.
