Homemade lotions for hands

In a bid to save a few bucks don’t go in for cheap products available in the market and ruin your skin in the process. Just assemble a few natural and herbal ingredients from your home to get a ‘homemade product’ and work your way to a better skin. The purpose of homemade lotions and potions is to give you great results without making a big hole in your pocket. The idea is to make these in lesser quantities so that you can use it fresh each time. The amount of care and dedication that you put in while making these concoctions combined with the potent effects of the natural ingredients almost make it more efficacious than the expensive cosmetics and lotions.
