Brilio.net - When doing outdoor activities, many people focus on protecting their faces from sun exposure and pollution. In fact, other areas such as hands are also susceptible to skin damage due to these environmental factors.
Hands are the most frequently used part of the body, so they are often exposed to sunlight and pollution. As a result, the skin on the hands can lose moisture, become rough, dry, and even wrinkled. This condition occurs because UV rays and pollution accelerate the evaporation of the skin's natural moisture and damage collagen and elastintwo key components that keep the skin supple and elastic.
However, you don't need to worry! Overcoming this problem does not have to be by buying expensive hand cream. You can try a natural solution using ingredients that are easy to find at home. One effective way is to use a mixture of honey, aloe vera, and coconut oil.
The combination of these three ingredients helps lock in skin moisture , repair damaged cells, and provide nutrition to make hands soft and smooth again. This method was shared by the Instagram account @akankshaa_rana_, as reported by briliobeauty.net on Thursday (27/2).

Honey is a natural ingredient that has effective properties in moisturizing the skin. This is because the glucose and fructose content in honey can hydrate and nourish the skin deeply. Honey also contains alpha-hydroxy acids (AHA) which help exfoliate dead skin cells, so it can smooth the skin slowly.

Coconut oil contains fatty acids and lauric acid which are known to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. These properties make coconut oil effective in helping to restore moisture and improve skin smoothness. In addition, coconut oil also has the potential to improve the appearance of the skin thanks to its lauric acid content.
