  If you want to make your hands and feet feel supple, soft and smooth then there’s a trick you can do with petroleum jelly.
  At night after you’ve taken a shower, get a tub of petroleum jelly. Scoop some of it and rub it on your feet and on your hands. After you’ve fully worked in the petroleum jelly into your skin get a pair of socks and cloth gloves. Wear them and sleep. This combination will make the skin on your feet and hands very soft and smooth. It can even soften the calluses on your feet so you can remove them easily.

  Are you among those women who worry too much on chipping and breaking their fingernails? Let us give you some economic tips:

  Put garlic on your nails and it will make them longer and stronger. If you have long nails, poke the garlic cloves using the tips of each of your nail. Or you can either smash or chop the garlic and gently apply on to them.

  After you do your manicure, let the polish dry for at least a minute, and run cold water over them for about 15 seconds. This leaves your polish dry.

  If you love applying colored nail polish, give your nails some rest without it. Let them breathe for sometime as regular applying of nail polish makes them yellowish.
