Problem Visible Veins

Hormone fluctuations during menopause can cause veins to protrude, leaving the hands looking creepy. Adding more to the problem is the cold weather, which causes hands' muscle fibers to contract and veins to appear more pronounced. To hydrate hands and ward off UV rays that can further thin the skin, apply a hand cream with an SPF of 15 or higher throughout the day. Then each night, use a hand cream with retinol, which triggers collagen production to firm skin and better conceal veins.
