Most people apply sunscreen on the face and stop there — but your hands and feet get even more sun exposure every single day. From driving to walking in sandals, UV rays hit these areas constantly. Here’s why SPF is the missing step that keeps hands and feet looking bright, youthful, and even-toned in Pakistan’s climate.
Why Hands & Feet Tan Faster
- Direct exposure: Hands face up while driving, texting, or working outdoors.
- Thin skin barrier: Fewer oil glands = faster dryness and pigmentation.
- Daily friction: Shoes and washing remove natural protection.
- No SPF habit: These areas get UV every day but zero defense.
The Damage You Don’t Notice (Until It Shows)
- Uneven tone on knuckles, toes, and the backs of hands.
- Fine lines and rough texture around fingers and heels.
- Post-polish darkening or tan returning after a few sunny days.
- Premature aging — UV exposure triggers collagen loss even through car windows.
How to Use SPF on Hands & Feet the Right Way
- Apply every morning — after moisturizer, before heading out.
- Reapply every 3–4 hours — especially after washing or sweating.
- Use broad-spectrum formulas with SPF 50+ for UVA/UVB protection.
- Focus on exposed zones: backs of hands, toes, ankles, and wrists.
Best SPFs for Hands & Feet (Non-Greasy)
- Mineral Sunscreen SPF 70 (100ml) — long-wear shield for outdoor days
- Aloe Vera Gel Sunscreen SPF 50 (100ml) — lightweight gel for quick reapplication
- Glow Boost Moisturizer Sunscreen SPF 65 (100ml) — hydrator + protection in one
Combine SPF with Brightening Routine
SPF protects, but you also need daily nourishment to keep tone even. Here’s how to pair both:
- AM: Hand & Foot Brightening Cream → SPF (on exposed areas)
- PM: Gentle polish 2–3×/week → Brightening Cream → optional socks.
- Weekly: Polish hands/toes with Skin Polish or exfoliate heels using Brightening Scrub.
Smart Reapplication Tips (For Pakistan’s Weather)
- Keep a mini SPF tube in your car or handbag.
- Reapply after ablution, washing dishes, or sanitizing hands.
- During summer heat, switch to the gel formula for comfort.
- Use Glow Boost SPF 65 on both face and hands to save time.
FAQs
Isn’t sunscreen only for the face?
No — hands and feet age and tan faster because they’re always exposed. SPF prevents uneven tone and dryness here, too.
Do I need SPF indoors?
If sunlight hits you through windows or while driving, yes. UVA rays penetrate glass.
Can I skip SPF at night?
Yes, replace it with Brightening Cream to repair and hydrate overnight.
Will SPF make my hands sticky?
No — choose light textures like Aloe Vera Gel SPF 50 or Glow Boost SPF 65.
