The Best (and Cheapest!) Hand and Body Scrub

When the seasons change my hands really dry out. In college, one of my roommates taught me how to make a really easy, inexpensive and effective hand and body scrub. I've tried much pricier scrubs and like this one best!

First, get out your white sugar and olive oil. You can also use vegetable oil, baby oil, etc.
Next, smear the oil all over your hands.
Add about a tablespoon or so of sugar.
Give your self a good scrub and then rinse with warm water.
I usually don't need lotion after this, but if my hands are really dry I'll follow the scrub with a good hand lotion. My mitts are one of my least favorite features. I can't believe I have posted pictures of them! :)
