Okay, this has been a harsh winter and cold brutal temperatures can cause havoc on
the skin. When faced with any kind of disease and in this case
myeloma, cold, dry cracked skin is not a good day.
Here's the first of my health segment I spoke about starting.
I've noticed for myself being on the cocktail of drugs I spoke of,
my skin tends to be super dry... more than usual.
There was a point it was so cracked I thought it would bleed,
and that's not cute! I had a regimen years ago when I had this
dry patch of psoriasis or something on my *back
that I wiped away and it never returned, I'm not
sure what happened, but I went and did some research and looked to old school remedies.
Old school method and the new.
Let's start with:
Hands
Let's face it after people reference you by face, the hands are next.
Hands are the makeup of what's going on with you,and yes I believe so.
There have been times in meetings I'll cover mine up
if I get to talking with my hands because, at
the end of the day people move their attention to your hands, and super dry
not good look!
My Go To Has Been (Old School):
a mini hand boost
of Vaseline for the cuticles.
a hand massage and a pinch of more Vaseline and mixture of a
good lotion as a nightcap moisturize.
Apply to hand and sleep with a clean but old sock to absorb the
goodness.
Try this twice a week and you should see some
noticeable improvements
Other Methods (New School):
Same thought with Vaseline applied to cuticles.
Sometimes I'll use a foot shrub lotion to remove
dead skin gently, as well as invigorate the pores,
especially if it's one that has mint (below pic), wintergreen
or aloe.
I absolutely love Aveeno Products, so I'm going to plug their moisturize
lotion, but quite frankly I would say go back to the Vaseline and the sock after the
scrub is applied.
Tell me if it worked for you
* I'll talk about body/ back method on later post*
