Good Hands People

While eyes may be the windows to your soul, your hands are the windows to your true age. When it comes to aging, women tend to forget that age spots, wrinkles and exposure to the sun tend to show up on their hands before any other parts of their bodies. The sun causes more than 90 percent of wrinkles and age spots, and hands tend to be the neglected body part when it comes to care.

A June 2006 article in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, the official medical journal of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, found that participants were able to accurately estimate the age of each woman in the unaltered photographs. Hand veins were the major sign of age.

Adding a daily hand cream to your beauty regimen can greatly slow the signs of aging and leave you with smooth hands. Here's a look at some of the best hand creams available.
