Smooth Shower Skin
by Alex
Before you shower, wet your legs, take salt and just rub the salt up and down your legs gently for about 3-5 minutes. Then just jump into the shower and wash it off, and all the dead skin will be gone.
Baby Soft Elbows & Knees
by Natasha
If you have rough elbows and knees, just take half a lemon and rub the lemon into your elbows/knees, it takes away the old skin and cleanses, leaving your usual rough spots smooth.
Makeup Remover and Exfoliant
by Jamie M.
Using a mixture of equal parts of vegetable shortening (Crisco) and cornmeal as a makeup remover/exfoilant, makes your skin look as smooth as peaches and cream!! 🙂
Sweet Banana Mask
by Tiffany
Mash up one banana really well in a bowl, and add enough sugar to desired consistency (thickness) it doesn’t matter how much, just make it right for YOU. Add a few drops of mint smelling flavor if you want, it sort of makes the mask cooling and smells great, mix it together to a thick paste, the sugar acts as an exfoliant and the banana is a great moisturizer. Leaves your skin as soft as a baby’s bottom, just massage gently onto you skin briefly and let stand till dry, then rinse with warm water, use on any part of the body that needs to be softened.
