Home remedies for removing peeling skin from fingertips

Peeling skin on fingertips is quite common during the winter season. Along with the dry weather, this peeling skin can occur due to allergies from flowers, lead, metal, leather, detergent, and more. Sometimes, the cause can be skin diseases as well. While most of the time peeling fingertips resolve on their own, you may try to treat this condition at home with these remedies.

Dip your hands in a bowl of soaked oats: To prepare this solution, soak some oats in a bowl full of warm water. As the oats soften up, dip your hands in this liquid, and keep them there for the next 10-15 minutes. After that, wash your hands and pat them dry with a towel.
