Steps
- 1I will start by adding 2 teaspoons of coffee grounds to a bowl.Add coffee grounds to the bowl.
- 2This is extra-virgin olive oil and I will need to use 1 tablespoon.Add olive oil to the coffee grounds.
- 3Once you have added the olive oil to the coffee grounds you need to stir it until the oil completely soaks into the coffee. It doesn't seem like much, but you do not want to waste our oil or our coffee. This is enough for one usage.Mix well.
- 4Scrape any of the leftover mix off of the spoon. Then, with your hands you will scoop up the mix and begin applying it to your skin. Normally, you would want to do this over the sink. That way, if it falls down, it is easier to clean up.Apply to your hands.
- 5Rub your hands together as if you were washing them with soap. This is an inexpensive way to exfoliate your hands. You do not have to use dry coffee, you can also use leftovers from your coffee machine or after making Turkish coffee. By the way, if you would like to see how to make Turkish coffee there is a video on making Turkish coffee on VisiHow.Rub your hands together.
- 6If you spend a lot of time in the water or if you wash a lot of dishes or if you have children like I do and you have to spend a lot of time with your hands in water this is a trick for you to help keep your hands soft, nice, moisturized, and help avoid cracking or dryness. You can also use this recipe to make a body scrub. Of course, you will need to make more of it. This scrub is also multipurpose. If you have any imperfections on your hips, waist, or cellulite this scrub is good for those things. I think this is good enough.Keep rubbing and massaging your hands.
- 7If you can see I am using my thumb to rub the inside of my palm and using my forefingers to rub the outside of my hand that way I am doing two things at once. I need to wash this off now.Let's make sure we have gotten between the fingers good and the end of the fingers.
- 8I just wash my hands off with a little bit of soap. Soap will help remove any remnants of coffee or oil since they are sticky.Wash off your hands.
- 9At this point you may want to apply some hand cream. I actually do not recognize my hands at this point because they are so soft and smooth. My hands have been really bad lately. This is a great homemade scrub as it works really well. If you do not want to buy any expensive hand scrubs or body scrubs this is a good alternative and you will be able to save money while still having perfect Princess hands. Hands that have never seen any hard work or have never actually worked.Apply hand cream.

Method 2: With Dawn Dish Soap
Hi, you're watching VisiHow. My name is Kara and in this video I will teach you how to make a homemade Dawn hand scrub. It is a very simple recipe and probably anyone can do it at home as long as you have some sugar and some Dawn (or any other dish soap). In my case, I am using Fairy which is almost the same thing. I am using Fairy with jojoba oils for smooth hands. So let's get started.
Steps
- 1Approximately one tablespoon of sugar or a little more.I am making just enough hand scrub to use for one time.
- 2Fairy and Dawn is basically the same thing so it is not going to make a huge difference.Now add one tablespoon of our soap.
- 3You can stock in advance and make one liter, I mean a big jar full of hand scrub so that you always have it ready. I am just using a little bit because I like to experiment. So just stir it up.You're welcome to use different proportions.
- 4Just stir it all up. If it's not very thick, if it looks too thin to you, add just a tiny little bit more sugar and finish mixing it.I like to experiment and to use different hand scrubs every time.
- 5Next thing I do I'm going to apply it on my hands. This is probably not the most comfortable dish that I used. You better use a bowl.So I think now it's good enough.
- 6If you have rough skin, dried skin - especially after winter, this kind of scrub will remove all the dirt, dead pieces of skin and will make it soft and smooth.It feels quite nice actually.
- 7It is actually a nice homemade gift idea. You can make a jar full of it and put a nice ribbon on it and a tag.It is important to use hand cream every time after you do a hand scrubbing.
- 8So I just washed the Dawn scrub off my hands.I think it is time to wash this off.
- 9The skin has become much softer.I can say that I can feel the difference.

Method 4: With Coconut Oil
Hello! You are watching Visihow and in this video I will teach you how to make a home made hand scrub from the coconut oil. I will need coconut oil, lemon, sea salt, sugar, raw honey, and just a little big of coconut crumbs, for a better, for a stronger coconut smell.
Steps
- 1I am going to start with a rinse which requires less amounts so that I can get rid of all these cans and jars here. I need a teaspoon of sea salt. That goes first.So, let's get started.
- 2A teaspoon of sugar.Okay.
- 3I am going to use a teaspoon of coconut crumbs.
- 4And a teaspoon of lemon juice. Okay, here it is.Done.
- 5I'm using raw honey. I will need exactly a tablespoon of it.And now we can move to the honey.
- 6Just like this.Let's use a small spoon to help take it off.
- 7And the last ingredient - the main ingredient - is the coconut oil, which actually is more like a butter. It smells so good! (Adds a tablespoon of coconut oil)Okay, and this is done as well.
- 8All the ingredients needs to get mixed.Now, I'm going to stir it all up.
- 9I can actually use my hands to do that.
- 10Well, actually it is my second favourite scrub after the coffee scrub that you can watch judging from the results that it gets. You can watch the coffee scrub video also that I made for VisiHow. So, it's done. I mixed it all up; made sure all the coconut crumbs are mixed and the sugar and honey and salt.This is my favourite hand scrub.
- 11Okay now, let's rub the hands.
- 12Okay. It's just a matter of taste. You can make it more thick by adding more sugar and more salt and more honey, but when it comes to a coconut oil hand scrub, I prefer one that is really soft. So, it's not very thick, it's kind of buttery, but this is how I want it to be. So let's rub everywhere. The fingers are the most damaged area of your fingers normally, from all this hand washing and cleaning. So we will give special attention to the area of our fingers.Coffee scrub does a better job peeling the dead skin off - the dry skin off - your hands, but the coconut oil scrub does a really good softening your hands.
- 13Normally enough to do them from 5 - 7 minutes. Okay. You're also welcome to let it sit for 10-15 minutes. That way, this hand scrub kind of turns into a hand mask. All the oils and all the vitamins micro-elements that are in coconut oil and in honey will serve a really good deal for you. You can apply more. It's not a very good bowl for that. So you can hold your hands like this and wash them off in 10 minutes, which I am going to do a little bit earlier.The more, or the longer you rub the scrub, the softer your hands will be.

Method 5: With Sugar and Yogurt
Hi you are watching VisiHow. My name is Kara and in this video I will show how to make a sugar hand scrub.
Steps
- 1If you have dull skin and roughness or if your hands are dried out this is the recipe for you.
- 2You are welcome to use brown sugar if you prefer. I am using white sugar today.You will need white sugar.
- 3Some red pepper
- 4And Natural Yogurt.
- 5Use a tablespoon of white sugar.Let's start.
- 6And just a tiny bit of Red Pepper This much.
- 7It is very thick as you can see. Its best to use yogurt without sugar or preservatives added.Now add two tablespoons of plain or vanilla Yogurt.
- 8If you don't have yogurt you are welcome to use sour cream as well.What I am doing next is mixing it up.
- 9The Red Pepper will make blood go towards your skin. It will improve your circulation in your hands. The sugar will peel off the dead skin.The way you apply it is to just use your hands and rub it gently in.
- 10You will feel your hands getting soft and warming up because of the red pepper, even if you are using cold yogurt or cold sour cream. Apply with a very gentle scrub. Keep scrubbing for a couple of minutes.Make sure you rub it all the way in.
- 11Thank you for watching VisiHow.
