4 year old licking her hand?

My dd is 4 and has started to lick her hand quite often and doesn't seem to realise she's doing it. Has anyone ever heard of this behaviour?
I've tried to google it but haven't found much.
She also licks people sometimes but not as much as she licks her hands.
If I ask her she says her hand was sticky but she seems to do it every 10-15 minutes sometimes one hand and sometimes one after the other.
Does anyone else's dc do this or anyone know what this could be?
