Scrub your hands like a pro
Want to get rid of dry, cracked skin on your hands? Follow these quick and easy tips and you’ll be well on your way to super smooth hands…
Do: Look for a hand scrub that contains natural oils. This will help to nourish your hands as the dry, cracked skin is removed.
Don’t: Over-scrub your hands. Twice a week is ample – any more than that and you risk irritating your skin.
Do: Scrub your hands using a gentle circular motion. This will help to slough away any dead skin cells and stimulate your circulation so that your hands appear brighter and firmer in texture.
Don’t: Be afraid to make your own scrub. Use ingredients like raw sugar, olive oil, chopped nuts, or coconut. You can even make your own hand peel using the fruit in your fridge – here’s how…

I did over scrub, it dried my hands out. Scrubs are awesome when done less often

You do have to be careful not to scrub the skin off, however light gentle strokes does help with the dry flaky skin and helps to keep your hands nice and smooth. :)

I'd like to try baking soda as a scrub. My hands are so dry I'm afraid to use a harsh scrub.
