Hand Sanitizing and hand washing drying out your hands?

Frequent hand washing as recommended by the CDC to prevent the spread of the coronavirus; you are probably washing your hands more than ever. Although it may sound counter-intuitive, a study published in Clinical Microbiology Reviews showed that washing with soap and water may leave your hands drier and more irritated than using hand sanitizers, which often contain emollients that help to keep moisture in.

We have you covered at Waters Edge Salon and Spa. Your safety always comes first and we have taken every step to ensure your time with us will be not only safe but enjoyable and relaxing.

A few tips that may help are:

Wash your hands for at least 20 seconds in lukewarm water. Use soap, and wash every part of your hands, including between your fingers and around your nails.

Dry your hands with a clean towel but leave some water on them. You can also let your hands air dry. While your hands are slightly damp, apply your hand cream or ointment.

Apply hand cream or ointment to your skin, making sure you work some of the moisturizer into your fingertips and nails. Ideal hand creams should not include irritants, such as retinol or other anti-aging serums, allergens or fragrances

When you use hand sanitizer, apply your hand cream or ointment immediately after the hand sanitizer dries.
