Do u want to look beautiful?

Well, how do you judge a person to be beautiful or handsome? By looking at their face? hair? eyes? lips? or something else? Can you make a decision by just scrutinizing a particular feature?

It’s impossible, right? Because beauty lies in every part of the body including the heart. Hehe!

If you fail to care for one part, it may start showing some problems like ageing, wrinkles and the list goes on. Especially the hands show serious signs of ageing and that’s because we use them out and about for everything from cleaning dishes to doing all household chores. In that process, they’re constantly exposed to chemicals, grime and also to the sun exposure. And when you live in hot or very cool or less humid places can dry out the exposed skin.

All of these can lead to dry and rough hands. So, taking utmost care of each and every body part is must must and must mandatory.
