GREEN RUB

This mild abrasive wash will gently smooth calluses from the palms.

1–2 tablespoons (15–30 ml) cornmeal

1 tablespoon (15 ml) fresh mashed avocado or avocado oil

To make:

Mix both ingredients in a bowl until they form a meal-like mixture.

To use:

1. Place the mixture in the palm of your hand. Rub both hands together and work the gritty and emollient meal into the calluses and up and around the fingers.

2. Repeat once or twice a week.

Quick Tip

You can whiten red, callused hands by rubbing them several times a day with a mixture of egg white and glycerin. At bedtime, apply the mixture, put on gloves, and then retire to bed.
