How to Soften Rough Elbows

Things You'll Need

Instructions

1

Carefully heat a couple of tablespoons of petroleum jelly in a saucepan just until it is liquid. Set the saucepan aside to cool while you wash and exfoliate your elbows.
2

Stir a tablespoon or two of unused coffee grounds into 1/4 cup of liquid glycerin soap. Moisten your elbows with warm, not hot, water, then rub the soap and coffee grounds into your skin. The coffee grounds are a natural, gentle exfoliant that help scrub away dead skin and encourage your skin to renew itself.
3

Rinse your elbows with warm water and gently pat them dry. Don't scrub them, and do leave them a little bit moist.
4

Check to be sure the petroleum jelly is cool enough to touch without burning your fingertips. Slather the liquefied petroleum jelly on your rough elbows generously. In addition to moisturizing, the petroleum jelly will keep your skin from drying out
5

Slip the cotton sleeves over your arms to protect your bedding and clothing from the petroleum jelly.
6

Repeat nightly until elbows are soft and smooth. Keep your elbows touchable by using this treatment once every week or two.
