Budget purchases can help maintain the youthfulness of hands, even if they are regularly exposed to ultraviolet light.
A cosmetologist from The Sun reports on how to preserve the youthfulness of hands exposed to lamps during manicures.
How to rejuvenate hands
Aging hands can be rejuvenated with the help of fillers, chemical skin peels, and lasers. However, using SPF Factor 50 cream year-round can prevent the need for these expensive options as it reduces sun damage.
Just like UV rays harm your face, they also affect your hands. This applies especially to those who get gel manicures, which involve using a special lamp.

Use a nourishing hand cream with high SPF and moisturize your hands after washing to rejuvenate and protect them.
Excessive exposure to ultraviolet light can accelerate the aging of your hands, so remember this applies to your regular gel manicure as well.
You can purchase manicure gloves with high UV protection, which cover the main part of your hand while leaving the fingertips exposed, making them an ideal investment against aging for those who opt for gel manicures.
