What hand oils are best to use, are there effective recipes for masks with oil for the skin of the hands, and what is the difference between hand cream and oil? All this is below in the article.
Types and purpose
Oil is an oily liquid substance of natural or synthetic origin. When caring for the skin, it is usually not some special oils that are used, but ordinary pharmacy oils.
Natural
Extracted from plants, their fruits or flowers. After collecting the necessary parts of the plant, they pass through:
- cold pressed;
- chemical extraction;
- hot spin.
The most useful and rich are cold-pressed products - they retain the maximum part of the original composition of the raw materials. The second most useful are hot-pressed and only in 3rd place is chemical extraction.
Mineral
Petroleum product. Even after 10-15 stages of cleaning, such a product remains harmful to the skin. Such drugs:
- clog pores;
- stop cellular development;
- slow down the process of cell regeneration.
After using the product, the dryness does not go away, but the tightness continues to be felt. The composition of the products is indicated as “mineral oil”.
In addition to classification by origin, hand oils also differ in consistency.
There are two main types:
- liquid;
- solid. It is a bar, like soap, or a jar with solid contents inside. Upon contact with the skin, the top layer melts from body temperature and is easily distributed over the hands.
Like liquid oils, solid oils can be of synthetic origin, that is, extracted from petroleum products.
There is another classification, but it applies only to liquid products that are sold in pharmacies.
- basic . Low concentrated, fatty, extracted from those parts of plants that contain the most fat - seeds, seeds, nuts. Due to this, the basic products are heavier and do not have a pronounced odor;
- ethereal _ Highly concentrated. They are extracted from the aromatic parts of plants - flowers or leaves. They are lighter, but cannot be used as a stand-alone hand care product. If used incorrectly, they cause redness, itching, and allergies.
Purpose of hand oils
- hydration and nutrition;
- healing of small wounds and cracks;
- anti-aging effect;
- nail and cuticle care – softening, strengthening, moisturizing;
- protection from external factors - weather conditions, UV rays.
Depending on the base component, squeezes perform different functions, so choose for yourself what result you want to achieve and, based on this, purchase a specific product. Examples are given in the review below.
Review of the best anti-aging hand creams
Which oil is best for hand skin care?
For years and hundreds of women it has already been determined that oils, both essential and ordinary, have a wonderful effect on human skin. That is why various oils are often used in cosmetology.
Women's manicure is no exception, because hands always require care and hydration, and nails require strengthening and hygiene. By the way, certain oils are capable of not only beauty, but also health, performing a healing effect. The most popular and useful oils for hand care are:
- lemon oil
- bergamot oil
- lavender oil
Hands and nails need regular care, since the more often you give them care, the younger and healthier your hands look. Nails become stronger, they become less susceptible and less likely to break or cling. And the manicure procedure itself is more pleasant when the pleasant aroma of essential oil is in the air.
hand cosmetics, caring mask
Frequent use of oil in hand care will give an indescribable atmosphere and health to this part of the body.
Every woman knows that the most demanding part of the fingers that requires constant care is the cuticle. Using oil will soften it and make it less rough. Thanks to the oil, the cuticle can be removed very easily and it will grow back slowly and carefully. The skin around the cuticle will not dry out and turn into hangnails.
Oil can accelerate the healthy growth of nails and at the same time make them less brittle. You will be able to regularly wear a beautiful long manicure and for this you will not need to go to the salon for extensions. For active nail growth, several of the most popular oils are most often used:
- pine oil
- ylang-ylang oil
- Cedar oil
- sandalwood oil
- Eucalyptus oil
These oils can not only influence nail growth, but also qualitatively nourish the skin and penetrate into the very depths of the nail structure. The best part is that, in addition to its cosmetic function, the oil has an anti-inflammatory effect.
the importance of a mask as a cosmetic procedure
Manicurists and especially cosmetologists recommend always using oil for cosmetic procedures and never stopping at one, combining several types of oil in masks and hand scrubs. To choose the right oil for yourself, you must first determine your needs: dry skin, redness, brittle nails, the appearance of hangnails, old skin, and so on.
- Using essential oil is very simple; all you need to do is add a few drops of your chosen oil to your caring cream and use it regularly
- You can take baths with sea salt and essential oils, which also have a beneficial effect on the skin
- You can add oil to homemade scrubs and regularly cleanse your skin of dead cells.
- Or you can simply make hand masks from oil or with the addition of essential oil
Depending on your goals, you need to choose the right caring oil and regularly perform cosmetic procedures aimed at the beauty and health of your hands.
It is very useful to regularly massage your hands with oil and rub the nail plate itself with oil. Try several types of oil on yourself and choose the one that has the most satisfactory effect. The oil is often mixed with honey and other beneficial ingredients to create effective healing hand masks.
benefits of oil in quality hand care
Remember that it is useful to use oil only on previously cleaned and washed nails, as well as hands.
Which is better: oil or cream
When choosing between cream and oil extract, give preference to both. The fact is that the cream with its light texture is indispensable for skin care during the day - at work, in public places. Oil is heavier, takes longer to absorb and maintains oiliness on the skin for a long time. It is used in evening hand care or as a moisturizer at night.
Key differences between oil and cream:
- oils are not recommended for permanent use. The course should be no more than a month with the same break. When using oils for 3, 5, 12 months, the skin reacts back and becomes even worse than it was initially. The creams are suitable for regular use, the main thing is to choose the product that is right for you;
- in summer, oily compositions add heaviness, and creams are easily absorbed and do not leave a greasy feeling;
- In the cream, water and oil molecules are distributed evenly, so all areas of the skin receive an equal amount of both substances. When using oil, this effect cannot be achieved - there will always be areas where the skin has received fewer beneficial components;
- choosing an oil product based on your skin type is more difficult than choosing a cream;
- The composition of oils is natural, and creams include inorganic impurities. But this difference does not make the squeeze more effective, since natural origin does not always mean benefit.
It is impossible to say for sure that you need to use only cream or oil products. Hand care is selected experimentally - combine oils, creams and care treatments and be sure to give your skin a break from greasy oil formulations.
Hand creams - types and purposes
If using oil and cream separately does not suit you, pay attention to a separate category of cosmetic products - hand cream-oil. These are products with a high content of oils in the composition, but in the usual cream format. Fito cosmetics brands, Velvet Handles, Dr.Sante and others have these.
Macadamia oil for hands, benefits of macadamia oil

Macadamia oil slows down aging and improves cell regeneration, which means that your hands can remain in perfect condition for a long time, soft and velvety to the touch. The oil can be added as a base to any masks and scrubs, but it is best to use it as a separate cosmetic product.
