Beauty fans say this luxe hand cream is ‘better than a facial' and it's finally back in stock
They say you can tell someone's age by looking at their hands, but if you're spending hundreds on your facial skincare routine while ignoring your hands, it's time to rethink your priorities.
SILKY PAWS is the $99 age-defying hand cream that's being hailed as a total game-changer for dry, sun-damaged, and ageing hands.
Skincare-grade actives, luxe botanical extracts, and fermented ingredients traditionally used by Geishas and sake makers for smoother, brighter, younger-looking hands that feel as good as they look.
The star ingredient? Kojic acid from fermented black rice water, a natural skin-brightener that helps fade age spots and pigmentation.
It's teamed with cherry blossom extract to boost hydration and elasticity, Japanese knotweed for its anti-ageing resveratrol content, and matcha green tea for a powerful antioxidant hit.
It's also enriched with ceramides, prebiotics, and postbiotics to deeply nourish and support the skin's protective barrier.
Basically, it's everything you love in a luxe face cream but for your hands.
And the packaging is just as chic as the product itself.
Housed in an elegant airless pump bottle for no-waste application, each hand cream comes in a limited-edition reusable Japanese knot gift bag, perfect for Mother's Day gifting (or a little self-spoil).
Founder Kristen Hinrichsen created SILKY PAWS after noticing a major gap in the market for anti-ageing hand treatments that could match the standards of high-end facial skincare.
'Women invest so much time and money into their face but often forget about their hands,' she says.
'Hands are exposed to the elements daily, and they age faster than most people realise.'
Clinical experts are on board too.
Dr Jan Knight, a cosmetic doctor, explains that ' age prevention isn't just about the face – the neck, décolletage and hands all need attention. SILKY PAWS gives women an effective at-home solution between professional treatments.'
Fans are loving the results, with one customer saying, 'Within weeks of regularly applying SILKY PAWS, my hands already look younger and the age spots look lighter.'
Want to see what all the fuss is about? SILKY PAWS offers a 30-Day Challenge: apply three times a day and watch the transformation unfold.

Sleep recommendations should be based on countries' norms
The amount of sleep should be determined by countries' norms. Researches from the University of Victoria and the University of British Columbia, in Canada, say poeple should sleep the recommended amount of hours that has been recommended in their country. The team's study - which involved 5,000 people, who completed an online questionnaire in 20 different countries acorss North America, South America, Europe, Asia and Africa - saw them analyse if life expectancy, rates of heart disease, obesity and diabetes were linked to how much sleep someone gets. The experts' results showed there was a variation in how many hours of sleep the volunteers get across the 20 countries - with the French getting the longest amount of sleep (seven hours and 52 minutes), and the Japanese getting the shortest amount of kip (six hours and 18 minutes). As a result, the psychologists found no evidence that people in countries who sleep less compared to those in other places where people sleep more had worse health. Doctor Christine Ou, lead author and an assistant professor at Victoria's School of Nursing, told BBC Science Focus: "Sleep is shaped by more than just biology – it's influenced by culture, work schedules, climate, light exposure, social norms and other factors. 'What's considered 'enough' sleep in one country might feel too much or not enough in another.' Keele University sleep psychologist Doctor Daljinder Chalmers - who was not involved in the study - said there is "no evidence" to back the claim that people should sleep for eight or more hours. She told BBC Science Focus: "Sleep is really complex, and there's no evidence to support the idea that we should all sleep for eight hours per day. 'Our study found that people tend to be healthier when their sleep aligns with what's typical in their culture. 'Recognising cultural context can help people focus on what actually supports their health, rather than chasing a fixed number. 'When you're looking at sleep and health, you need to consider culture.'

Forget 10,000 steps. The Japanese walking method is easier and faster
As fitness trends go, there's lots to like about Japanese walking. It's free, easy, time efficient and suits anyone unused to exercise. While walking 10,000 steps can take up to 100 minutes, the Japanese walking method takes just half an hour at a time – and the payoff could be healthier blood pressure, better cardio fitness and (maybe) better lower-body strength. Also called interval walking, it was developed by Japanese researchers two decades ago as a way of turning walking into a workout, and is like a soft version of High Intensity Interval Training. With HIIT, you switch between bursts of high intensity movements, like sprinting, and a few minutes of slower paced exercise that let you recover. With interval walking you're alternating three minutes of walking at a slower pace with three minutes of brisk walking at 70 per cent of your maximum heart rate. 'If you're very unfit this could be a great way to kick-start a journey to better fitness. To someone whose fitness level is low, brisk walking is a high intensity activity,' says Dr Angelo Sabag, lecturer in exercise physiology at the University of Sydney. There are good reasons to make a walk more intense. 'Exercising at higher intensities helps your heart pump blood more efficiently and improves how your body delivers and uses oxygen. Over time this makes everyday tasks, like walking up a hill feel easier because your body can meet the energy demands more effectively.' Although the Japanese research originally focused more on heart health, other studies have since found that, compared with walking at a steady pace, it can improve blood glucose control for people with diabetes – at least in the short term. Loading 'Most studies have only followed people for a few months, so it's hard to say how effective interval walking is for long-term glucose control. It could be helpful if done regularly, but to continue seeing improvements over time, you'll likely need to gradually increase the intensity and/or duration of exercise,' Sabag says. Another limitation of interval walking could be its effect on leg strength – the original Japanese research suggested that it may help maintain strength in the thigh muscles.
