Brilio.net - Have you ever experienced wrinkles on your hands after doing daily activities such as cleaning the house? This condition is a normal thing that happens to everyone. This condition usually occurs because the skin on the hands lacks moisture, making it easier to wrinkle.
Dehydration can occur due to lack of fluid intake, very dry weather, or the habit of washing hands too often with harsh soap without using moisturizer afterwards. Dry skin will lose its elasticity and easily form fine lines and wrinkles.
Apart from being caused by daily activities, wrinkles on the hands can also occur due to exposure to sunlight. Continuous exposure to UV rays from the sun can damage collagen and elastin fibers in the skin.
Dry skin due to sun exposure is known as photoaging or sun-induced aging. Hand skin that is frequently exposed to sunlight without protection will wrinkle more quickly than skin that is protected.
The next cause comes from natural aging that occurs with age. In this aging phase, the skin loses its natural elasticity and moisture.
Collagen and elastin, two proteins that keep skin firm and elastic, are starting to decrease in production. As a result, the skin becomes thinner and less elastic, making it easier for wrinkles to form.
To make wrinkled hand skin smooth again, the key is to maintain good moisture. Many people rely on body lotion or moisturizer to keep their skin wrinkle-free. Well, you don't need to buy moisturizer. You can get it by making it from natural ingredients, you know.
As done by a beauty vlogger @Naturalbeautyshop. In uploads on his YouTube channel, he uses avocado oil , petroleum jelly and rosemary hydrosol. Avocado oil contains vitamin E, vitamin A, and vitamin D, all of which are important for healthy skin.
Vitamin E functions as an antioxidant that protects the skin from damage caused by free radicals. Avocado oil has extraordinary moisturizing abilities due to its high fatty acid content. It helps hydrate dry skin and prevents the formation of wrinkles.
The sterol content in avocado oil can help increase the production of collagen, a protein that keeps skin elastic and supple. Avocado oil also has anti-inflammatory properties that can help soothe irritated and inflamed skin.
Moisturized, wrinkle-free skin with petroleum jelly and rosemary.Petroleum jelly functions as an occlusive moisturizer, which means it forms a protective layer over the skin that helps lock in moisture and prevents water evaporation from the skin's surface. By keeping skin moisturized, petroleum jelly helps speed up the healing process of dry, cracked skin, and minimizes the appearance of wrinkles. Well, regular use of petroleum jelly can prevent hand skin from extreme dryness, which is one of the main causes of wrinkles.
Rosemary hydrosol contains antioxidants that help protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals and slow the aging process. Rosemary hydrosol has refreshing and calming properties that can help reduce inflammation and improve skin texture.
Although not as strong as oil or petroleum jelly in locking in moisture, rosemary hydrosol can provide light hydration that is enough to balance the skin's moisture levels. Rosemary is known to stimulate blood circulation, which helps increase the flow of nutrients and oxygen to the skin, making it look healthier and fresher.
By using the above ingredients, wrinkled hand skin becomes smooth again. So how do you make and use the ingredients above? For those of you who want to try, let's look at the information below as summarized by briliobeauty.net from the Naturalbeautyshop YouTube channel, Tuesday (14/5).
