Summer Skin Care Routine

My favorite hand moisturizers

I’ve mentioned time and time again that the weather here takes a serious toll on my skin. My hands are especially under fire all day. I’m constantly washing my hands for one reason or another. During the deep winter, I’ve actually had my skin break and bleed… No fun at all. I’ve been doing my best to take better care of my hands and that includes replenishing their moisture often. Body Shop’s Almond Hand & Nail Cream is a delicate way to…
