Skin Care Tip: Wheat Germ Oil as a skin moisturizer and softener

Tip description / details:
I have used 100% pure wheat germ oil as a skin moisturizer for years. It works wonders on even very dry cracked skin on hands and elbows.

Ingredients:
100% Wheat Germ Oil

How to prepare:
Purchase at health food store. Spectrum makes one without the strong yeast odor and the dark yellow color. While the stronger oil might be higher in nutrients, the strong smell will last throughout the day and is probably not suitable.

How to use:
It works best when applied after a shower when your skin is plumped up with water. Towel off the water and rub the wheat germ oil all over your body. Towel off the excess oil.

Results (observed by submitter):
Your skin will be soft and plump, smooth and well moisturized. It works when all other moisturizers on the market fail. I have had people with terrible, red, itchy, dry and cracked patches of skin, and they have tried everything, even prescription lotions, nothing worked. I told them to get their skin nice and warm and wet, pat dry and apply wheat germ oil. After only a day or two, their skin is dramatically improved!

Costs involved:
$7 - $15
