Soft, Smooth Hand Trick
This gently exfoliating scrub will make your hands noticeably softer and smoother.

In a small bowl, mash:
1/4 of a peeled avocado
1 egg white
2 tablespoons oatmeal
1 teaspoon lemon juice

Combine well and apply to your hands. Leave the mixture on for 20 minutes, then rinse in warm water and pat dry.

Or you can make a paste of sugar & olive oil to scrub dry skin off your hands. Rinse well & wash w/ a moisturizing soap like Dove. Follow w/ hand lotion like Neutrogena Norwegian Formula.

Manicure Tips

Getting a manicure these days seems to be common practice for a lot of people. Some men do receive regular manicures; however, it seems that is type of pampering is usually dominated by women. I went to the nail salon this morning and was amazed at how many women were there. There were mother daughter duos in the nail salon. There were people like myself that were at the salon because of being in a wedding party. There were also women that were just there for a little much needed pampering.

I am not one of those lucky women that have the money or
let's face it the time to get regular salon manicures. I am thrilled with the way that my nails look now, but I know that in just a few hours the polish will start to chip. Unfortunately, I am just not that graceful. Because of my lack of funds, I have mastered some tips to do my own at home manicures.

The first step to doing an at home manicure, is to put the kids to bed. Well, not really, but it helps to get the polish on evenly if I am left alone to fully attend to my nails, without having to wipe a runny nose, or change a diaper wile filing my nails. All joking aside though, I use one of those one minute manicure products to scrub my hands. My favorite product is by Beauty Control. It's a great exfoliate, but it also has essential oils in it. The oils keep my hands feeling smooth and silky for hours, even after repeated hand washing. Also the oils really help to moisturize not only my hands, but also my cuticles. This eliminates that time consuming step of having to soak your hands in a bowl of water. Really, who has time for that? Incidentally, while your cuticles are soft you should push them back. If you have time you can use either an orange stick or a cuticle pusher. If I am in a hurry, I will just use my finger nail. It's not perfect, but it will do in a pinch.

Sometimes, that's the extent of my at home manicure. If, however, I am lucky and have a little more time on my hands, I will proceed with shaping my nails. Shaping can be tricky. I have read that you should stroke the emery board in the same direction, rather than back and forth. This supposedly prevents damage to the nail. However, yesterday, I had to file my nails while driving down the highway on my way to a rehearsal dinner. I didn't care too much about going in one direction. At least not with the emery board anyway. Also, I noticed that when I got a salon manicure, she didn't bother to follow that piece of advice either.

The last and most important step in an at home manicure, is of course the polish. I have also read that you should try to put the polish on in thin even coats. Three brush strokes is supposedly the best method, one stroke for each side, and one stroke right down the middle of the nail. Realistically, the best tip I can give you is to get a good polish.

Things You'll Need

Moisturizing liquid soap/shampoo (gentle)
Bowl
Honey
Soft washcloth
Hand towel
Rose water
Sunblock
Gloves


Use lukewarm water and a good quality moisturizing liquid soap to wash your hands. This removes any dirt on the surface of your hands.

Fill a bowl with warm water and soak your hands for 10 minutes. Take 2 tbsp. of honey and rub your hands together a few times. Soak them in the bowl again.

Put the moisturizing liquidsoap/shampoo on a soft washcloth and massage both sides of your hands. Rinse your hands in lukewarm water and dab them dry with a soft hand towel.

Apply a good quality hand moisturizer on your hands and massage until the skin absorbs all the cream.

Take a different approach. Follow Step 1, then gently rub rose water into your skin and massage. This gives your skin a smooth finish and a nice aroma. Repeat on alternate days for smooth and silky hands.

Cover your hands in the winter and summer seasons. Winter air can cause dry cracked skin. Summer heat and sun will damage your skin and cause dark spots. Wear gloves or mittens in the winter and use a sunblock in the summer to keep your hands smooth and soft all year long.

Tips:

Moisturize your hands two times a day, especially before going to bed.

Use moisturizers with nut oils as they readily absorb in the skin and leave hands soft and smooth.

my mom uses brown sugar and water and makes a hand scrub. It's cheap, easy and fast.
She's nearly 60 and she has beautiful, soft hands. She does this about 2-3 times a week.
