How can I avoid age spots on my hands?
Discolouration and age spots develop gradually over time as a direct result of sun damage. While putting SPF on your face is an easy to remember step in your daily skincare routine, we often neglect to do the same for our hands, which are exposed to the same environmental abuses. If you’re serious about protecting your hands, devise a proactive plan of attack involving sunscreen and a brightening moisturizer. Be sure to apply (and reapply!) SPF daily to hands, especially when outdoors, and enlist a vitamin C-enriched moisturizer, such as Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Dark Spot Hand Cream ($12, well.ca), to even out skin tone and diminish any existing irregularities.
