Hands and feet often lose moisture faster because of frequent washing, friction, weather, and everyday activities. **Regular moisturizing helps keep the skin soft, smooth, and comfortable.** 
**Best times to moisturize:**
**For your hands**
After washing your hands
After using hand sanitizer
After household chores or cleaning
Whenever your hands feel dry or tight
Before bedtime
**For your feet**
After a bath or shower, while skin is slightly damp
Before bed
After wearing shoes for a long time
Whenever your feet feel dry or rough
More often during cold or dry weather
**For better results:**
Choose a moisturizer with ingredients such as **glycerin, ceramides, shea butter, or urea** for dry skin.
Apply generously and massage gently.
For very dry feet, apply a thicker moisturizer at night and wear clean cotton socks.
Avoid applying heavy moisturizer between the toes if the area tends to stay damp, as excess moisture can encourage fungal growth.
**Remember:** Don’t wait until your skin cracks—**moisturize regularly to help prevent dryness.**
