How to Keep your Hands Soft & Smooth Naturally

In a pinch for hand lotion? Here's a trick I learned from a mason...

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• 1 ripe banana

1. Anyone who has worked with concrete knows that the lye in concrete can reek havoc on your hands.
   Here is a trick that I learned from a career mason...
   
   Peel one ripe banana.
2. Eat the banana (or I prefer to freeze them for a hot weather treat).
3. Rub the inside of the peel on your hands like a washcloth and then proceed to continue to rub in the banana "lotion" until it's absorbed by your skin.
4. Repeat as necessary for a natural and aromatic alternative to over the counter dry skin remedies.
