Keeping hands thoroughly cleansed has never been so important. Now more than ever, washing your hands regularly is one of the most effective methods to keep germs at bay. But, regular washing can begin to take its toll on our skin, leaving hands feeling dry, cracked and in need of a little TLC. With an increased interest in our hand care collections recently, we wanted to provide you with our top tips and expert advice to help ensure your hard-working hands remain cleansed, hydrated and protected whether you're at home or on the go. Step One | Cleanse Whether you prefer the nourishing lather of our triple-milled soaps or the gentle cleansing properties of our hand wash collection, the first step in establishing an effective hand care routine starts with cleansing your hands regularly. Following the recommended NHS Guidelines, apply enough soap to cover your hands and wash for at least 20 seconds in warm water, ensuring to thoroughly cleanse palms, thumbs, in between fingers and the backs of your hands. Once cleansed, dry your hands with a disposable towel and use this to turn off the tap. Did you know? Our Formulas hand care collection contains essential oils of ginger and ginseng, known for their antibacterial properties. Step Two | Protect Regular cleansing can leave our hands feeling dry, cracked and in need of a little TLC. After cleansing and once dry, the final step to protecting your hands lies in the power of a nourishing hand cream to help lock in moisture. Infused with soothing extracts of skin-loving Shea Butter, Vitamin E and Jojoba seed oil, gently massage a small amount of one of our moisturising hand creams into the skin to instantly reveal softer, smoother hands. On the Go? Protect your skin's natural moisture barrier wherever you go with our Hydrating Hand Creams, enriched with active plant ingredients to provide deep hydration that lasts up to 72 hours.
