Homemade Skin Care Recipe: Natural remedy for dry skin

submitted by Anonymous

Tip description / details:
Mix together equal parts of olive oil and raw brown sugar to make an after-shower scrub. Apply to arms and legs, rinse lightly, and pat dry. After menopause, my skin became extremely dry and flaky and did not respond to any commercial product. This did the trick. It even smoothed my rough elbows. I keep a disposable container of it in the shower and use it daily.

Ingredients:
olive oil raw brown sugar

How to prepare:
mix in equal parts

How to use:
Use as a scrub after bathing. Rub about 2 tablespoons total over arms and legs. Rinse lightly and pat dry.

Results (observed by submitter):
Soft, shiny skin.

Costs involved:
Under $10
