Wondering the Age? Check the Hands


Recently, a friend and I were chatting about another woman and we were wondering her age. Based on her face along, we both thought she might be younger than what she really is, but then my friend said but her hands look OLD! I hadn't even check out her hands, so the next time I saw her I had to sneak a peek and my friend was right. Her hands looked like Granny hands! Well actually they weren't that bad, but they weren't the hands of a 20-something or even a younger 30-something.

About a week after the convo, I had comething forgotten about the hands thing, until an email popped up in my inbox. The title was "New survey says hands aging faster than any other body part..." I knew I had to share. According to a survey commissioned by Ellen Sirot HAND PERFECTION™:

* More than half of women surveyed (about 56%) felt their hands were aging faster than their face, hair and teeth, and about three-quarters (74%) said they knew someone else who could benefit from an anti-aging solution for their hands.

* Although about 67% of women wash their hands seven times or more per day, only 5% moisturize as often. In fact, more than 1/3 of women (33%) reported only moisturizing their hands once a day.

So what do you think ladies? Do hands give away a woman's true age?

    Yes I totally agree with this!! It is true...if you look at Madonna's hands you will notice her age more than in her face....that's why I keep lotion on me at all times!
