A dermatologist’s take on over-the-counter hand moisturizers We are in the midst of a once in a lifetime event that is results in lots of hand washing (and we’re probably past that phase at this point). I’m providing suggestions on some of my favorite over-the-counter #moisturizers. Other tips to prevent dry and irritated skin included using luke warm or cold water as opposed to hot water and wearing gloves, like dishwashing gloves, when washing or cleaning. #Aveeno Cracked Skin Relief CICA Balm https://amzn.to/3ar4okE Aveeno Eczema Therapy Daily Moisturizing Cream https://amzn.to/2Umxf4b #SkinFix Eczema+ Hand Repair Cream https://bit.ly/39pagcK #CeraVe Therapeutic Hand Cream https://amzn.to/2UmwkAI CeraVe Healing Ointment https://amzn.to/2JfrBKE #Aquaphor Healing Ointment https://amzn.to/2vQk9m3 #Eucerin Advanced Repair Hand Cream https://amzn.to/2xoGAzg La Roche-Posay Lipikar Balm AP+ Intense Repair Body Cream https://amzn.to/39kV9RF . . . . . . . . . #larocheposay #washyourhands #dermatologist #dermatology #dryskin #derm #stayhydrated #antibacterial #handsanitizer #handwash #handwashing #overthecounter #loreal #covid_19 #covid #corona #coronavirus #skincare #selfcare #skincaretips

😬😳😲😑😙🤪 For any of y’all missing your Botox or fillers, facial exercise or facial “yoga” is a wallet-friendly alternative to consider or a great supplement to your daily regimen (or an activity while netflixing). A study done in JAMA Dermatology in 2018 showed statistical significance with cheek fullness and overall participant satisfaction when performing daily exercises over 20 weeks. https://lnkd.in/eHuPPeS #facialyoga #themoreyouknow #hippie #antiaging #antiwrinkle #facialexercises #faceyoga #jamadermatology

Taking vitamin C before drinking alcohol to minimize hangovers is a little biohack I learned from a very smart MD/PhD professor at Tulane 😁. This is just a little helpful tip to keep in mind during one of the most festive times of the year here in New Orleans. Happy Mardi Gras, y’all! And stay safe! 💚💜💛🎭 #mardigras #biohack #vitaminc #preventhangover #hangovercure

How to prevent sun spots and wrinkles on your hands & arms I get asked ALL THE TIME how to get rid of sun spots, wrinkles, and bruises on the hands and arms. Lasers, chemical peels, and certain creams can all help for sure. But it’s a lot easier to prevent them. Sunscreen and sun-protective clothing can make a bigger difference than we realize. It can also be fun and kind of hilarious. #sunscreen #gloves #UVgloves In case you’re ready to protect those arms, links to gloves below: - long UV protective gloves: https://amzn.to/3bzblB4 - short UV protective gloves: https://amzn.to/39GerBJ Here are also some of my favorite sunscreens: - EltaMD UV Clear: amzn.to/2F4BTJA - Cerave AM: amzn.to/2F70Bch - La Roche-Posay Anthelios 50 Mineral Sunscreen: amzn.to/2DZjCxS - Revision Intellishade Original: https://amzn.to/2TU8adx #wrinkles #skincare #skin # #cosmetics

Did you know there was a 75-year study that found the one secret to leading a fulfilling life? According to Robert Waldinger, director of the #Harvard Study of Adult Development, one thing surpasses all the rest in terms of importance: "The clearest message that we get from this 75-year study is this: Good relationships keep us happier and healthier. Period." Specifically, the study demonstrates that having someone to rely on helps your nervous system relax, helps your brain stay healthier for longer, and reduces both emotional as well as physical pain. "It's not just the number of friends you have, and it's not whether or not you're in a committed relationship," says Waldinger. "It's the quality of your close relationships that matters”--how much vulnerability and depth exists within them, how safe you feel sharing with one another, the extent to which you can relax and be seen for who you truly are, and truly see another. There you have it. I’m specifically sending props to this amazing group of women as we celebrate our dear friend’s wedding. Behind each person is a story of challenges, successes, sorrows, joy, and a yearning for growth. Thank you for being my #tribe. #selfcare #holistichealth #antiaging #holisticlifestyle #longevity #holistichealing #mTOR
