My hands look old. Help!

I've just noticed how old my hands are looking. I'm 43 (a young looking one I think) and it just seems to have happened recently. What to do?

Are there good creams and what not that don't cost a bomb to help rejuvenate them or is that it and I'm on the slippery slope of aging already?

Help!

Following. I'm 36 and my hands have looked like this for at least 10 years. They are a bit dry right now but even when they aren't they still look 70 (just softer).

Ooh what's the paraffin treatment? Can you do it yourself?

Boots and Bidy Shop used to sell packs. You got it in a packet, heated it up in water and dunked or hands in. The wax was warm and would make a sort of glove made from wax. It was really nice! Didn't do a darn thing for my skin but having warm wax on my hands felt lovely.

I've ordered some handy gurugu. Thanks for the tip!

So is paraffin a bit pointless then?

Boots Perfect and Protect hand cream in the blue tube is excellent.
