To keep your hands attractive give yourself a weekly manicure.

a. The skin on your hand is thin and delicate; therefore take special care of them.
b. Pamper your hands with your personal hand lotion, 4 times a day.
c. Exfoliate once a week with a face exfoliater.
d. Use once a week your face night cream also on your hands before you go to sleep.
e. Protect your hands from dry weather as well as protecing them from the sun.
f. For dry hands after washing your hands with soap, wet them again. Pour salt on your hands and then scrub them under water.

GLYCERIN AND HONEY SUGAR SCRUB for whole body.

1 cup fine loose salt or loose sugar
3 teaspoons liquid glycerin
1 teaspoon pure honey
3-5 drops of your favorite essential oil

Mix ingredients well and store in an airtight container. Add more liquid ingredients if you prefer a thinner end-product. Stir thoroughly before use. This keeps very well, and in fact, the honey acts as preservative. Use small amounts when scrubbing the nose, being careful not to irritate or get it in the eyes.

Add the remainder of the sugar/salt until you have a rather pasty mixture, at a consistency you prefer. Meanwhile, melt the coconut butter or oil in a small container, in your microwave. MELT, but do not overheat. Stir the melted coconut oil into your sugar mixture, and stir well. Last, add the six drops of essential oils of your choice, stirring to blend. Melt and add more coconut butter or oil to reach your desired consistency. Transfer your mixture to an airtight container or jar, and cool until slightly thickened.
