HAND REVIVER
Soak your hands in a combination of two teaspoons of baking soda and one denture cleanser tablet in a small bowl of warm water for five minutes.

Rinse and pat dry.
Warm moisturizer in microwave for about ten seconds or until just warm. Rub into hands and feet. Slip on cotton gloves and cotton socks for added benefits. Let the cream do its work for about fifteen minutes, and then rinse off.
