But first, givethem some anti-
agingTLC.
THE DERMATOLOGISTSAYS:"Hands are the most
sun-exposed part of the body afterthe face and chest, but mostwomen aren't as diligent aboutprotecting them-which is whythey often show damage early on.Excessive sun exposure causes
spots (from over-production of melanin)and prominent veins(due to collagendamage that thins theskin). Loss of fat,which happens withage, also makes veinsmore visible." Skin-
brightening products containingvitamin C or kojic acid can reducespots after three months of dailyuse. "But you must also applysunscreen every morning-andevery three hours when you'reoutside-to prevent new spots,"Fields says. No cream will fixbulging veins, but a moisturizerwith light-diffusing particles canmake them less noticeable.

Q&TRlPLEAMy handsare starting tolook like mygrandmothe(s,What can I do?
THE CHEMIST SAYS:"When your handsare dry, lines and
crepey-ness are more obvious,which is why it's so important tokeep them moisturized: It plumpsthe skin so they appear moreyouthful." Most body lotionsaren't hydrating enough to do the
job, so use a handcream that containshumectants likehyaluronic acid andglycerin, which drawwater to the skin,plus ingredients thatprevent moistureloss, such as
petrolatum and cocoa butter.Reapply throughout the day-"especially with all the hand-washing you do during fluseason," says Wilson-and wearleather gloves (which won't wickaway moisture) when you'reoutside. "They keep handshydrated while protecting againstdry air and UV rays, which causedamage even in the winter."

THE MANICURISTSAYS:"Cracked, ragged
cuticles make hands look worn.To rejuvenate them, exfoliate witha scrub, then rub a dot of cuticlecream into each nail bed. Give ita minute to absorb, then use anorange wood stick to push back
your cuticles."Long, pointy nailslook old-fashioned,so file 'em shortand round, theneither buff each nailwith five strokes of
a nail buffer labeled "240/320grit" or apply a fun polish color.("But keep in mind that blue-ishshades can make veins moreobvious on fair skin," Logansays.) For something classic, trya warm-toned neutral polish.And if you're getting a salonmanicure, "add on a paraffin waxtreatment," she suggests. "Itplumps the skin and makeshands incredibly smooth andbaby-soft." -KAYLEIGH DONAHUE
