How to Fix Dry Hands

Come winter, and our hands wither and wrinkle at light speed thanks to dropping temperatures combined with the dehydrating effects of soap and hot water. Sometimes this may escape your notice, overshadowed by the need to tend to your face and neck. Don't make this mistake. To fix dry hands, devise a committed regimen that combines intensive moisturization along with these golden habits: taking care to cleanse gently, staying away from hot water, and investing in a good pair of cotton gloves to lock in moisture overnight (they'll keep you toasty, too). Ahead, some product recommendations that will help you fix dry hands in a jiffy. Have a look. (Pssst, you may also like this list of the best hand creams!)

Here's How to Fix Dry Hands

  • Slather on coconut, olive or almond oil

    Nature's Absolutes Virgin Coconut Oil
    The number one solution to fix dry hands is oil, and it's lying in your household cabinet. If not, invest in our recommendations: top grade coconut oil, olive oil or almond oil to deliver intensive hydration to your hands. Choose from Nature's Absolutes Virgin Coconut Oil, Soulflower Olive Oil and Dabur's Badam/Almond Oil for hair + skin. If you need more convincing, you can use these babies for all-over hydration. Our advise? Slather on as much as you can, then put on cotton gloves to seal all the moisture. You can do this overnight, or on a lazy afternoon when you're reading a book. The result – soft, supple hands all day long (Staying in to pamper yourself? Here's how to do it.)

  • Or try non-greasy hand creams for intensive hydration

    The Body Shop Almond Milk and Honey Hand Cream
    While oil's a great way to fix dry hands, it's not always practical. Naturally, you don't want to leave stains and grease on everything you touch, and roaming around in gloves all day is simply not logistical. So for daytime, or when you're running chores, we recommend these intensive hand creams that deliver ultra-hydration on application. Choose from Body Shop's user-approved Almond Milk & Honey Hand Cream, the dermatologist-recommended Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream, the Vaseline Intensive Conditioning Hand Lotion and the Khadi Herbal Saffron Shea Butter Hand Cream.

  • As a last resort, try petroleum jelly!

    Vaseline Blueseal Pure Petroleum Jelly
    If all else fails, turn to OG Vaseline Petroleum Jelly to fix dry hands. Here's the science of it – petroleum jelly is an occlusive moisturizer, which means it helps prevent water loss by forming a physical protective barrier on the outermost layer of your skin, the epidermis. But since it's a heavy formula, like oil, we recommend you use it at night with gloves on. May your hands stay ever-soft!
