Four affordable products to quickly tidy up one’s hands

Have you ever had a situation where the sensible idea to put on gloves only came after the entire garden was cleared of weeds, the yard was cleared of trash and the house was thoroughly cleaned?

 

 

After such merciless manipulations, the only definition that comes to mind when looking at one’s hands is ‘working’. Let us tell you today how to quickly and easily restore their neat appearance.

 

Hand washing

If you want to quickly tidy up your hands, try washing something by hand. Long contact with soap, powder and warm water will help wash off ingrained dirt. After washing, rinse your hands with clean water, wipe dry and generously lubricate with nourishing cream.

 

Natural scrub

Spread a little sugar on your palms, lubricate with olive oil on top and gently wipe all dirty areas. Sugar will help clean your hands and oil will moisturize them.

 

Peroxide

With this recipe, even the most tortured hands will become much neater. In 400 ml of warm water, dissolve 100 ml of hydrogen peroxide, 15 ml of liquid soap and 10 ml of ammonia. Dip your hands in this for 10 minutes, then rinse them and moisturise with cream.

 

Lemon

After working in the garden, dirt can become ingrained into the skin under one’s nails, which is not so easy to get rid of. Lemon will help you with this. Squeeze some lemon juice into a container and dip your fingers in it for 5 minutes.
