HAND CARE
Even the prettiest gloves will not make up for a badly groomed pair of hands. So keep them in good shape by following a regular hand care programme, writes Norman Hartnell from London. Wear rubber gloves when j you wash dishes or windows lor scrub out dirty corners. I Nothing turns hands rough land red faster than repeated i exposure to hot soapy water, .and scrubbing always proves fatal to nails. i Use hand-cream every night and every morning, too — it ;is just as important as a (moisturiser for your face. Even the trendiest make-up or hairstyle will not keep
.your hands from giving your iage away. And do not forget that weekly manicure. A cuticleremoving cream will keep nails neat and prevent irritating hangnails. Use an emery board — never a steel file, which tends to split nails and leave ragged edges. Always file in one direction —do not “saw” back and forth. Use quick, short strokes, working from the edge of the nail to the tip, land be careful not to file away the “shoulders” or; (corners of the nails. This willi iweaken them, and make them; more prone to breaking and; chipping.
