Dry Hand Remedy

When I was a surgical assistant, my hands used to get very dry from the surgical scrub and powder from the gloves. This is a trick I learned that works great to make your hands feel wonderful! You will be amazed at the results, however temporary they may be.

Mix in your palm one each of the following:

1. Something oily (vaseline, olive oil, baby oil, etc)
2. Something grainy (sugar, salt, etc)
3. A touch of liquid soap (hand soap, dish soap, shampoo, etc)

Now wet your hands and simply rub your hands gently together (as if you are washing them) for a minute or so, then rinse with warm water. Be gentle! Finally, follow with the lotion of your choice. Your hands will be silky smooth!
