TIP 1: CLEANSE
Cleansing your hands is the first essential step in your hand beauty ritual, but it also involves one enemy we tend to forget: water! Every time you wash your hands, make sure you dry them thoroughly, so the water won't dry your skin. To prevent your hands from drying out, avoid using products with a drying effect, such as hydro alcoholic products. Opt for soaps with gentle formulas, like our Shea Butter Liquid Soap - which contains verbena, enriched with shea extract.

TIP 2: EXFOLIATE
Your body and face love a good scrub – but your hands need exfoliation too. Once or twice a week, use an exfoliator that's designed for the hands and gentle on the skin, to remove dead cells and leave your hands ready to soak up all the benefits of a moisturizing cream. The Shea Butter One-Minute Hand Scrub is formulated with Shea to help nourish and soften the hands in just one minute.
TIP 3: HOW TO MOISTURIZE THE HANDS
So what's the ultimate secret to beautiful hands? Hydration, hydration, hydration. Your hand cream should be your faithful companion, ready to be applied whenever you need, to help maintain the hydrolipidic film that naturally protects your skin. Your hand cream should nourish, moisturize and help protect. An effective hand cream contains fatty substances and moisturizing agents, such as Shea butter. This moisturizing blend is the secret to the success of the Shea Butter Hand Cream, which has been L'OCCITANE's best seller for over 20 years.

TIP 4: TAKE CARE OF YOUR NAILS
Another secret to beautiful hands is strong, well manicured nails and nourished cuticles. Your cuticles are at the base of your nails and they play a protective role – so it's important to look after them. The Shea Nourishing Nail & Cuticle Oil helps nourish and soften cuticles, for stronger, shinier nails.
