DIP YOUR WAY INTO SOFT HANDS

DIP YOUR WAY INTO SOFT HANDS

A good way to keep your hands soft and moisturized during the cold winter is by using a  paraffin wax dip. Paraffin wax treatments in a salon can be expensive. You will be surprised that most of the items that you will need to perform your own paraffin treatment at home may be found right in your kitchen.

Paraffin treatments also aids in providing beautiful, soft skin. The heat from the paraffin wax helps open the pores in your skin, and when the wax is cooled and ready to remove, dead skin cells on the surface of your skin is removed, thus leaving behind soft and beautiful skin.

How to use Paraffin wax: You can find paraffin wax in your local grocery store. I found my wax in the baking aisle. Melt your wax in the microwave in a large bowel. It should be thin like cough syrup and warm like the temperature of hot chocolate. Next, lay out your hand towel with parchment or wax paper on top of it. Now dip each hand into the wax three times, until you have a generous coating. Lay your dipped hands onto the parchment or wax paper.  After about 5-10 minutes, your wax should be cooled and ready to remove. Gently peel off the wax from your hands and finish with a hand moisturizer.
