Skincare is not just for your face! Your hands are one of the most exposed areas of your body, making them susceptible to prolonged sun exposure and extreme weather conditions. The daily wear and tear can really take a toll on your hands and can actually make you appear older than you are! We take special care of our face and neck to make sure they look younger longer…but why stop there? According to Harper’s Bazaar Magazine, “All women, even the resolutely Botox-less, are apt to notice that their hands age differently from (and often sooner than) their face.” Hands are a tell tale sign of your age and now there is a way to dramatically, improve the look and feel of your hands with the New! Repêchage® Anti-Aging Facial for the Hands, featuring the New! Biolight™ Repêchage Brightening Body Corrector.
