Scrub-A-Dub Dub

We know, we know. Your grandma gave you her famous recipe for homemade Latvian facial scrub made of crushed walnut shells and pine nuts and you've tried to use it faithfully. Only while her skin always glowed, yours looks as dewy as Keith Richards. So what do you do with the leftover batch?

Seriously, we constantly get e-mail from people wondering what to do with pricey cosmetics that don't suit their skin. First off contrary to popular online wisdom - don't swap!!! (did we include enough exclamation points there?). It's unhygienic, you have no idea who or what has used these products first and it's really, really grody.

Try to figure out a different use for what you already have. For instance when we buy a facial scrub that's too intense for our delicate complexions we use it on our bodies, or love this new trick we've picked up. Rub some scrub on the top of dry, unwashed hands. Massage in and then wash hands to reveal softer, smoother younger looking hands...
