Hands Telling/Showing Age - Page 4

I didn't mean to offend anyone. When I said that I don't care what my hands look like, I wasn't saying that others shouldn't care what their hands look like. I do use a good moisturizer because I can't stand the feel of dry skin, so I'm always lathering my hands up. I also didn't mean to imply that I don't take care of my hands. They just aren't a priority for me.

I'm sure there are things I care about that others don't.

Whose hand is this?

All that matters when it comes to age is your mindset.

To each their own, but I only care if my skin - everywhere - is healthy and that my hands - and everything else - work the way they're supposed to.

I guess one's viewpoint just depends on their life experience.

A person can care about both. One is not exclusive of the other. Not everyone cares about looks, I do. Unfortunately I have multiple auto-immune illnesses. Not a lot I can do about it. I can however make the best with what I've been given. I choose to care about my looks and that includes the look of my skin and hands. That's why everything I do to my face, I do to my hands. It's why I stay out of the sun (not really, I just hate the heat!). It's why I keep my skin hydrated and moisturized and spend hundreds on skincare (and makeup). Like you said, to each their own. I enjoy taking care of my looks. Not everyone does.

@monicakm Not everyone has the money to spend on cosmetics and their looks. Some people do not have a disposal income. it's not that they don't care.

When they are done paying for more important things like household bills, medications, food and health care..they are broke.

It does not bother me since now I have my Mam-Ma's hands. All I have to do when I miss my grandmother is look down to her hands that held me.

I literally just told my husband this weekend when I look at my hands I think I'm looking at my mama's. ❤️🌺💔

@Carmie I read your posts and respect what you have to say. Your comment here to @monicakm is true.... however, that applies to everything in life, cars, homes, clothes, food, skin care, necessities and luxuries. No matter your income level. I understand your point, but that was not the focus of the post. I think it is the responsible thing to know ones limits and spend whatever they can, no matter how much or little...
