When we think of skincare, we often focus on our face, but the rest of our body needs just as much attention. Skin, being the body’s largest organ, is exposed to environmental stressors, germs, and pollutants every day. It’s essential to maintain proper hygiene and care for every part of your skin, not just your face.
At Palmtree Hygiene, we believe that skin care should be a complete routine. Here's why full-body skincare matters and how our sanitisers can help you maintain it.

Why Skin Care Should Extend Beyond Your Face
Hands & Nails: Your hands encounter bacteria, dirt, and harsh chemicals daily. Constantly sanitising can dry out the skin, leading to cracked, irritated hands. Using a gentle, moisturizing hand sanitiser, like those from Palmtree Hygiene, ensures your hands are clean and nourished. Pair it with a hydrating hand cream for soft, smooth skin.
Elbows, Knees & Legs: These often-neglected areas tend to become dry and rough. Exfoliating once a week and moisturising at least three times a week can prevent rough patches, keeping your skin soft and healthy.
Feet: Feet are prone to dryness and fungal infections due to shoes and sweat. Keep them fresh by exfoliating, moisturising, and using foot care products designed for this purpose. Moisturise your feet every other day to maintain softness and prevent dryness.
Back and Shoulders: These areas can also develop acne or clogged pores due to sweat or body products. Be sure to cleanse your back and shoulders to prevent breakouts and promote smoother skin.

At Palmtree Hygiene, we understand the importance of keeping your entire body clean without compromising skin health. Here’s how our products can enhance your skincare routine:

Essential Skin Care Tips
To maintain healthy skin, here are a few tips:
Exfoliate regularly to remove dead skin cells and keep skin feeling smooth.
Stay hydrated by drinking water and using moisturising lotions at least three times a week.
Wear sunscreen to protect your skin from harmful UV rays.
Choose the right hygiene products that cleanse without stripping your skin of moisture.
