Start Using Organic Body Care Items and Feel the Difference in Your Skin

After your face, your hands are often seen as the best indicator of age, but they are also used considerably more than any other part of the body on a daily basis. You use them to shake hands when you meet someone, send a text message or update your social media status, and, of course, wash up. This means that over the course of just one day your hands are exposed to a multitude of germs and dirt. It is drummed into us from an early age that it is important to wash our hands, but constant washing with a chemical based product can strip your skin's natural oils and leave your hands looking dry, cracked and wrinkled. Not a good look if you want to show a youthful appearance!

Our skin is our largest organ, and some studies have shown that up to 60% of what we put on our skin is absorbed into the body. If your skin is dry, cracked or irritated, this can lead to a weakening in the protective layer of your body and allow toxins in more easily. This means that if you are really concerned about what you are putting into your body, you should really consider organic skin care and organic hand creams to ensure that you are putting purely natural ingredients into your body and not those based on chemicals.

Skin Blossom's Organic Hand Cream has 87% organic ingredients and is made from a combination of shea & cocoa butter with the addition of rose geranium. Shea butter is an African ingredient that is known for its skin healing properties and has been seen to help neutralise wrinkles and soften discolouration. Cocoa butter has a high fatty acid content which makes it really good for dry skin as it can penetrate further than the top layer of the skin and so moisturise deep down and really nourish the skin. Rose Geranium has a sweet smell and is good for restoring skin by clearing sluggish and oily skin.

As stated previously, your hands have a hard time on a daily basis, so why not take a minute out to pop on some organic hand cream and really give them a treat?
