Recipe for the Silica Hand Mask: • 2 tsp silica powder • 1 tsp olive oil • ½ tsp honey • Optionally, 2 drops of rose oil Mix the ingredients, apply to clean hands, gently massage in, and leave on for 15-20 minutes. For best results, use once a week, and your skin will show visible vitality.

If your hands are rough and dry, an avocado hand mask can help. Avocado is rich in vitamins, minerals, and natural oil – perfect for intensively nourishing dry skin.

Even better: Leave on overnight by putting cotton gloves over it. This mask will make even dry hands feel velvety soft again.

Coconut oil is a true miracle cure for chapped and stressed hands. It moisturizes, soothes the skin, and leaves it supple. Recipe for the coconut oil hand mask: • 1 tbsp coconut oil • 1 tbsp quark (curd cheese) • Cotton gloves Lightly warm the coconut oil, mix with quark, and apply to the hands. Cover with gloves and leave on overnight. In the morning, your hands will be soft and regenerated. This mask is especially suitable for very dry hands.

A scrub optimally prepares the skin for care by removing dead skin cells and promoting blood circulation. Homemade scrubs from natural ingredients are particularly effective and gentle.

Your skin is now perfectly prepared for a hand mask or hand cream. Relaxation with Hand Massages and Aromatherapy A hand massage completes any hand care routine.
