Elevate Your Hand Care Routine

How To Care For Your Hands

There’s never been a more apt time to take care – and we mean good care – of your hands. You’ll come into contact with hundreds of surfaces daily, be that your mobile phone, your front door handle, a yoga mat or even your own face. So it’s important to keep on top of hand hygiene and keep yourself, and those around you, safe and healthy. From the best way to thoroughly wash them to the protective ingredients that work as hard as you do, here’s how to care for hands with our simple but elevated routine.

1.Cleanse Your Hands

It’s not rocket science, we know. Wet your hands, and apply a pump or two of your favourite Fine Liquid Hand Wash. Lather up by rubbing in between your palms and through your fingers. You should rub the back of your fingers against your palms on each hand too, before rinsing well.

2.... Then, Protect Them

Our Hand Lotions make perfect partners to Fine Liquid Hand Washes, available in the award-winning fragrances you already know and love. We always recommend following up your hand-washing by massaging a pump or two of lotion into hands. Work a small amount into the backs and palms of your hands, between fingers, on nailbeds and over the wrists. Lightweight and quickly absorbed, our lotions combat dry hands and bring a welcome veil of fragrance to your essential ritual, without leaving them feeling greasy or tacky.

3.On-The-Go Hydration Boost

Hand care is self-care too. Our hands are exposed to plenty of skin stressors on a daily basis, from temperature change to UV rays, and city pollution to everyday activities. Made with shea butter, our Hand Creams hydrate skin and seal in moisture while meadowfoam seed oil helps to prevent dryness and locks in our iconic fragrances. Plus, there’s nothing better than a bonus, during-the-day pamper to boost your mood. Try radiant Orange & Bergamot Hand Cream for a pocket-sized dose of sunshine or Delicious Rhubarb & Rose Hand Cream to bring a tantalisingly sweet aroma.

4.Sanitise And Tackle Viruses

For those all-important walks and daily tasks that take you outdoors, our Hand Sanitiser Gels help you to keep hands clean as a whistle and dreamily scented. Equally great for commutes, shopping trips or after a quick coffee run, they’re made with 64.7% alcohol to kill 99.9% of bacteria and enveloped viruses. And, best of all, our non-drying gel formula means you won’t get that tight skin feeling. Massage 3ml of our Coastal Cypress & Sea Fennel Hand Sanitiser Gel into hands for 60 seconds for an especially refreshing sensation. Invigorating tones of fig leaves, marine notes and salted cypress call to mind the wild ocean air.

5.Refresh And Refill

A constant in our everyday, it’s only normal that our Fine Liquid Hand Wash stash runs low sometimes. As part of our ever-evolving sustainability journey, our Hand Wash refillable programme includes reusable glass bottles and 600ml Refill Pouches of three iconic fragrances. This means you’ll be able to refill your Fine Liquid Hand Wash time and time again, at home. We’re really proud to share our 600ml pouch helps to reduce our single-use plastic, using 80% less plastic to than two of our standard bottles.
