A PROFESSIONAL hand model has revealed the 15-step routine she completes on a regular basis to ensure she’s tip top and ready for work.
Victoria has to stick to a high-maintenance regime so that her hands are soft and callous free when she’s called in to her day job.
And in a video on TikTok, she shared the extreme lengths she has to go to – doing everything from shaving her hands to putting them in a wax bath.
She began by putting on some cuffs, to ensure the rest of her arms didn’t get wet, before applying some cleansing foam and using a brush to distribute it across her hands.
Next was to dry the hands, for which Victoria used some kind of pre-packaged cloth, which she ran under water to unfold.
The third step involved her steaming her hands, using a clever little machine she plugged in, before she used a Ouai scrub to exfoliate.
She then put some oil on her hands, before using a derma-planing razor to get rid of any excess hair.
A Renewing Hand Mask was up next – with Victoria treating herself to a probiotic fizzy drink while her hands were in the gloves.
Victoria then got a paraffin wax container, and melted wax before putting her hands in one at a time.
Once the wax had hardened, she peeled it off – leaving baby soft hands underneath.
But that wasn’t the end of the routine.
Victoria went on to put on some retinol hand cream, before using a handheld red light therapy device all over her hands.
She then used some L’Occitane hand cream, followed by some cuticle oil, and used a Gua Sha on her hands before she finished everything off by spraying her hands with SPF.
“My high maintenance to be low maintenance routine,” she captioned her video.
People were quick to comment on the video, with some sharing their hilariously low key routines.
“I sometimes use dish soap,” one wrote.
“My hand care routine is water, soap, water, dry,” another added.
“I ain’t gonna lie, I forget to wash my hands half the time!” a third commented.
“My hands looked at me and sighed,” someone else laughed.
“Wish I had that much time to waste to make a 15 step hand routine,” another said.
But Victoria’s shaving section of the routine raised a few eyebrows.
“Even if you’re a hand model, washing, shaving and putting on lotion should be enough,” one wrote.
“Never in my 26 years have I seen someone shave their hands,” another added.
“I do it all the time haha,” Victoria replied.
“I get little hairs on my fingers that I shave,” someone else wrote.
To which Victoria added: “Same!! And my toes! even with laser they still come back.”
“This is so extra and I love it,” another laughed.
