As the days get longer and temperatures rise, it’s time to refresh your beauty routine - and that includes giving your hands some extra attention. After months of cold, dry air and indoor heating, your skin may be feeling a little parched and in need of some serious TLC. Here’s how to get your hands looking soft, smooth, and beautifully nourished for the warmer season ahead, with the help of your favourite Semilac products.
1. Gentle Exfoliation – Out with the Old
Start by removing dead skin cells with a gentle hand scrub. Exfoliating once or twice a week helps to reveal fresh, radiant skin and allows moisturisers to absorb more effectively.
✔ Top pick: Use Spa Scrub to delicately exfoliate and nourish your hands, leaving them silky smooth.
✔ Pro tip: Pay extra attention to dry areas like knuckles and between the fingers.
2. Deep Hydration – Quench Your Skin
After exfoliating, replenish moisture with a lightweight yet deeply nourishing cream. Swap heavier winter creams for something fresh and quick-absorbing.
✔ Top pick: Semilac Regenerating Hand Cream offers intense hydration without feeling greasy, enriched with moisturising ingredients like shea butter and panthenol.
✔ Tip: Apply after every hand wash to keep your skin hydrated all day long.
3. Nail and Cuticle Care – Don’t Forget the Details
Healthy nails and cuticles are essential for a polished, spring-ready look. Treat them to rich oils and strengthening treatments.
✔ Must-have: Semilac Moisturising Cuticle Oil – perfect for keeping cuticles soft and promoting healthy nail growth.
✔ Top tip: Massage a drop of oil into your nail bed daily for strong and shiny nails.
4. Sun Protection – Shield Your Hands
Your hands are exposed to the sun daily, so don’t forget to protect them. Use SPF to prevent early signs of ageing like spots and wrinkles.
✔ Easy solution: Combine your regular routine with Hand Cream SPF 30 — providing hydration and essential sun protection in one simple step.
✔ Remember: Reapply after washing your hands when spending time outdoors.
5. Regular Manicures – Fresh and Polished
Tidy, well-maintained nails make a huge difference. Whether you prefer classic nudes, pretty pastels, or bold summer shades, Semilac UV Gel Polishes have you covered.
✔ Spring colour ideas: Try Semilac Extend 5in1 814 Pastel Peach, Semilac 130 Sleeping Beauty, or Semilac 319 Shimmer Dust for a fresh, sunny look.
✔ Pro tip: Always finish your manicure with the Semilac Top No Wipe Real Color for incredible shine and durability.
