Warm a small amount of olive oil in a dish in the microwave ... about 1 tablespoon.
Step2
When oil is warm, add about 2 tablespoons sugar and mix together with your fingers.
Step3
Scoop up the mixture and rub all over your palms, fingers, backs of hands, and wrists for 1 minute.
Step4
Rinse off hands in warm water.
Step5
Use a towel to dry your hands. Your hands may feel a little slippery still from the oil, give it a minute or two to absorb into your skin. Most lotions absorb very fast because of the alcohol in them.
Step6
After a minute or so, wipe off any excess oil on the towel, apply your favourite hand cream and enjoy your velvety, silky soft hands!
Step7
If you have time, repeat procedure on your feet.
Tips & Warnings
Get your grease monkey to try this to get the oily grime out of their skin!
Do not use sugar scrub on your face, the sugar is too coarse and abrasive.

Wow that is a great fix. I work with my hands and they just don't feel girlie when I am done. This would be a wonderful quick fix. Thanks.
