They say hands are one of the first things to age rapidly on the body, and they’re right. Take a moment to look at your hands. When was the last time you noticed the subtle changes, those small spots of pigmentation, freckles, and wrinkles creeping up and around your fingers with no signs of stopping? Once you spot them, it’s hard to ignore. But here’s the good news: making a conscious effort to care for your hands can lead to visible, quick-fire improvements in both their look and feel. A proactive approach to your hand care doesn’t just restore softness and hydration to the touch, but can help turn back the clock, one treatment at a time.

The skin on our hands is thinner, more delicate, and more prone to external damage like UV rays, LED nail lamps, and general abrasions from being put to work day in and day out. The smallest things can show up where we least expect it, and although we may think that we’re putting in the hard work (applying our SPF, rubbing in excess skincare, and re-applying our favourite hand cream), you may find that the kind of care and treatment your hands need can be more than just a simple touch-and-go routine.

They’re one of our most important body parts, so why don’t we see hand care at the top of our beauty priority lists?

It’s a stigma we want to see changed before we go into 2026, and with self-care and wellness spending amongst Gen Z and Millennials set to tip $5 billion dollars in the 2025-2026 financial year (according to McKinsey), it’s clear we need to be prioritising all parts of the body, not just our face. Because it’s time we treat the skin that does all the work for us, right?

Enter Dermapenworld’s secret weapon for the ultimate hand rejuvenation done at home. Dermaceutical’s L.E.D Hand Mask is a dermatologist-approved, totally portable silicone hand mask fitted with both red and near-infrared light that’s a cinch to use. Clinically proven to reduce visible fine lines and wrinkles on the hands, as well as age spots, sun damage, and pesky pigmentation, it’s the ultimate at-home luxury that’ll do wonders for the skin in as little as 10 minutes.

Use of non-invasive light therapy across 72 powerful red lights leaves the delicate skin on the hands looking more plump, feeling hydrated, and visibly glowing from the first session (although consistency is key for long-term benefits). Designed to relax muscles and increase blood flow and collagen activity from deep under the skin’s surface, this small but mighty mask moulds comfortably to the hand when applied for treatment, with each light strategically placed across the mask’s surface to ensure maximum coverage across the hands base and through to the fingertips.

For the best results, commit to 3-5 uses of the system’s 10-minute cycle per week for a minimum of 4 weeks. And for an extra boost of self-care? Add a hand mask underneath your treatment to boost your results and really tap into that luxurious feeling. Skin Republic’s Nail and Cuticle Hand Mask is one of our favourites.
