The skin on the hands becomes dry and looks rougher and more wrinkled in winter because of the cold, dry air and the hands’ low levels of natural oils, as well as frequent handwashing and the use of sanitizers and hot water. Hand skin—especially on the backs of the hands—is also thinner and has fewer oil glands than facial skin. Damage to the skin’s natural barrier allows moisture to escape. A 2022 study found that, from winter to summer, water loss through the skin decreased by 22.15% and skin-surface roughness by 34.29%. Fine lines may improve within days of regular moisturizing, but consult a dermatologist if you have painful cracks, bleeding, a rash or inflammation, or if the dryness persists despite moisturizing.
