Consider this DIY hand scrub as spring cleaning for your hands. It’s time to shed any lingering dry skin remaining from wintry weather, and have a hand renaissance. The ingredients are all natural, and you probably already have all of them tucked away in your kitchen. Not only is this a healthy way to exfoliate, but it’s also a huge money saver that yields the same results as the most luxe skincare at the Bloomingdale’s beauty counter.
You’ll need:
1/4 cup of coarse sugar. Brown sugar or salt works, too, but the more coarse the sugar, the better the result.
2 Tablespoons of coconut oil
Add some argan oil, olive oil, jojoba oil, vitamin e oil or anything you feel benefits your skin most.
Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl until the coconut oil chunks have disappeared. It should be a creamy consistency. Scrub your hands with this for 2 minutes and rinse with lukewarm water (No soap!). Allow the remaining oils to stay on your hands and soak in. Pat your hands dry with a towel.
Any leftovers can stay covered in the fridge for a few days.
