Every time you go outside, your hands are exposed to UV light (they also get it inside, and when you’re
driving). Most of us tend not to be as vigilant with sunscreen or moisturizer on our hands (as opposed to our
faces), and our hands have less fat and fewer sebaceous glands than most of the body, which means they’re
susceptible to both premature wrinkles and looking gaunt as we get older.

So by far the most effective way to keep your hands moisturized and youthful-looking is daily mineral
sunscreen. There’s a new one designed specifically for hands; it’s a super luxurious version of something we’ve
long been on the hunt for, from a new brand we love, Unsun. It was created by Katonya Breaux (who happens to be
Frank Ocean’s mom) when she couldn’t find mineral sunscreens that blended seamlessly into Black skin. Her
formulas blend into every skin tone in seconds, and the hand cream is something everyone should have in
their bag.

1. Silky (Mineral) Sunscreen
   and Hand Cream in One

   This sinks in instantly to all skin types and tones, softens, ultramoisturizes, and most importantly
   protects against UV rays—pure genius.

Loaded with firming oils and nourishing extracts, clean hand cream makes a major difference in terms of
replenishing skin. (Conventional hand cream can be formulated with potentially health-harming cocktails of
chemical preservatives and texturizers to make it seem moisturizing, rather than the actual
ultramoisturizing good stuff.)

1. Everything-You-Need
   Hand-Care Kit

   We love the faintly lingering vanilla-and-orange-peel scent.

What you choose to wash—or sanitize—with has a considerable impact on how your hands look and feel. Formulas
that work without the stripping, drying detergents often found in conventional washes and sanitizers help keep
the skin’s moisture barrier intact with botanical extracts, butters, and oils.

1. Creamy Neroli-Scented Wash

   Swirled with detoxifying plant butters and moisturizing oils that lather beautifully, this hand cleanser
   thoroughly sweeps away grime and impurities.

   dries instantly).

3. Extra Credit: Exfoliate!

   Clearing away dead and damaged skin allows moisturizers to penetrate better into skin, and this helps
   reveal brighter tone beneath, too.

4. Smoothing Body Scrub

   Alternately, do a little scrub for your hands whenever you’re in the shower. Massage the blend of
   powerfully moisturizing (and heavenly rosemary-and-grapefruit-scented) essential-oil-and-salt mixture over
   the tops of your hands.

5. Once-a-Week Chemical Peel

   When you’re doing a deep exfoliation with goop’s overnight peel, smooth the textured, rougher side of the
   pad over your hands before you finish to retexturize, brighten, and get your hands primed for
   moisturizing.
