Hand care & skin – the finishing touch to every manicure
Beautiful nails deserve beautiful hands.
A perfect manicure is only complete when the skin is soft, hydrated and radiant.
The experts at PRO HAAR share the best tips for caring for your hands – every day, in every season.
Why hand care is essential
The skin on your hands ages faster than that of your face.
Daily exposure to water, sun, cold and cleaning agents damages the natural barrier.
Without care, the skin becomes dry, thin and rough – making even the most beautiful nails look less beautiful.
Step 1 – Gentle cleansing without drying out
Use a mild hand soap with moisturizing ingredients such as glycerin or aloe vera.
Avoid sulfates and antibacterial soaps that strip the skin.
Pro tip from PRO HAAR: “Every time you wash your hands, you lose moisture – restore it immediately with cream.”
Step 2 – Exfoliation for smooth, soft skin
Exfoliating once or twice a week removes dead skin cells and makes the skin supple.
Use a scrub based on sugar, salt or ground apricot kernels.
Massage gently in circles and rinse with lukewarm water.
Step 3 – Hydration is key
Apply hand cream several times a day – especially after washing.
Select formulas with:
💧 Shea butter – deeply nourishes.
💧 Panthenol – soothes.
💧 Hyaluronic acid – intensely hydrates.
💧 Vitamin E – protects against free radicals.
At night, you can use a richer cream or mask and wear cotton gloves for maximum absorption.
Step 4 – Protection from sun & cold
During the day, use a hand cream with SPF 15 or higher.
UV radiation causes pigment spots and accelerated aging.
In winter: wear gloves to prevent dryness and cracking.
Step 5 – Massage for blood circulation & relaxation
A daily mini-massage promotes blood circulation and strengthens skin elasticity.
Use cuticle oil or light cream and massage from wrist to fingertips.
It is not only caring, but also relaxing.
Extra care – hand mask at home
Mix honey, olive oil and lemon juice; apply and leave on for 10 minutes.
Result: smooth, hydrated and visibly younger hands.
Common mistakes in hand care
❌ Only use cream in the evening.
❌ Do not apply SPF.
❌ Using water that is too hot.
❌ No care during the winter months.
Conclusion – soft hands, strong impression
Well-groomed hands say more than words.
They reflect attention, class and self-care.
At PRO HAAR we believe: the finishing touch to every manicure is healthy, radiant skin.
