Recently I was told that I had the hands of a 17 year old.
I found that quite incredible given that I am not 58; but, I have to admit that my hands do not give away my age. No wrinkled skin, prominent veins or age spots. I have no idea why – it isn’t as if I necessarily pamper them.
I wash dishes by hand every day. I garden and weed with no gloves on. I tend to scrub my shower stall with multiple cleaners and no gloves – so given that I don’t wear gloves or use tools my hands should look a little weathered; BUT, they don’t.
I do have a weekly manicure and I have done so for over 25 years now – I don’t give them to myself but I go to a salon. I also put hand cream on after I wash my hands – I don’t like my hands to feel rough or harsh and I feel that soap and water leave that feeling. And I do admit that I put cuticle crème on my nails every evening.
Thanks to my genes I have young looking hands and hope to keep them that way for many years.
