WHY DO HANDS & FEET BECOME DRY IN THE FALL?
Chapped hands and feet can be due to several reasons. Such as
Environmental changes

- Frequent hand washing
- Any skin condition
- In contact with chemicals
HOW TO GET SOFT & SILKY HANDS/FEET AGAIN?
- Moisturize, moisturize:
There can’t be any less emphasis on moisturizing your hand several times a day. A moisturizer gives back the moisture your skin has lost.
- Wear Gloves if needed:
If you have a lot of work related to washing. Try to wear gloves while washing dishes, as the water strips out the oil from the skin.
- Petroleum Jelly:
If you want to have a permanent solution to the dryness, apply Vaseline on dry areas, cover it with socks or gloves and keep it overnight. This will retain the moisture in the skin.
- Consult a Doctor:
If your skin situation is only deteriorating and not recovering. Consult your dermatologist, as you might need some medication to treat it.
