Feeling your hands rough and dry like a brush or sandpaper can be really unpleasant, besides, this can also make our daily tasks more difficult. Therefore, we have this simple solution to improve this situation.
Ingredients:
- Two teaspoons of Extra Virgin olive oil.
- One teaspoon of liquid soap.
- Two small bags of sugar.
Pour all the ingredients in a bowl and mix them well, put your hands upon the sink and begin to wet them with the prepared mixture, during this process you can rub your hands like if we were washing them.
Repeat this movement during a few minutes without rising with water and then you will gradually feel the softness of your hands.
You can also use a soft nail brush to clean better your hand skin .
The next step is to rinse your hands with water and dry them.
Put 2, 3 drops of lemon juice and Extra Virgin olive oil in one palm and extend them well. Give your hands a gentle massage like before.
The final step is to care all your nails. It is quite simple, massage the cuticles of each nail tip, five at a time and do the same to the other five nails. After a few minutes you will see the wonderful result: Hand skin soft like silk with bright spotless nails.
The lemon juice can clean the spots from the skin, meanwhile the olive oil can soften it.
You can also perfume your hands with cream or cologne if you want, or do it in another way: Get a lemon, lime, orange or tangerine... after the wash and dry process, cut a slice of the peel and put it in your palms with a drop of olive oil, and then another gentle massage.
You will be very impressed by the result.
Why don't I practice the same for my feet?
Yes, of course you can do it.
You will get a great result with the same method. It will be better if you previously bath your feet in warm water with some bath soap and a tablespoon of oil.
Thanks to this 8-10 minutes bath, your feet can be hydrated. A subsequent exfoliating massage can get you a more efficient result.
We should remember, a proper feet massage can improve our general conditions by affecting the circulation of the whole body.
If we want to keep our feet soft after work, a simple daily gentle massage during the shower will be enough.
Put a few drops of oil in wet hands and massage the feet, especially on the sole and heel.
With a previously macerated Extra Virgin olive oil, even better with 10-12 laurel leaves on one deciliter of it, can help to cure foot fungus caused by using pools or long-closed footwear.
