Soft hands

This is a very old routine our grannies used to do before handcreams and exfolliating existed and it works great. Take all rings off your hands, place some olive oil and some salt. Start rubbing your hands together paying special attention to the palms and tips of fingers. Then rinse under the tap with lukewarm water and pat dry. To remove smoking stains, use lemon juice instead of oil and follow as before. In this case, apply some handcream aftrewards.
