Beauty APPLYING CRÈME AFTER EVERY HAND WASH? TRY IT! We wash our hands multiple times a day. Wash, dry and go. Some may wonder - should I use lotion after each wash? The answer is fairly simple - if you want to there’s no harm. You may worry about using too much product or making what you use less effective, but these effects are rare. Additionally, because you’re using lotion or etc. more frequently, you can often use less. If your skin is naturally extremely dry, applying cream or lotion after each wash can be beneficial. It also depends on how often you wash your hands and what you do afterwards. If you decide to give extra moisturizing a try, always have a travel size moisturizer in your bag, apply a thin layer on 30 C O S M O B I Z M A G A Z I N E the back of the hand after each wash and gently massage. Any residues can be distributed in the palm of your hand. Another expert says that yes, in any case we should be applying hand cream regularly, especially if we don’t always use mild and nourishing cleansing products - and in the worst- case scenario when we use a traditional soap bar. Soap removes lipids from the skin, which should be counteracted by a suitable moisturizing product. Text: beautypress.com
