3. Roughed-Up Hands
THE EXPERT: Muriel Olivares
Urban farmer, 35, Miami
For amateur gardeners and pros alike, frequent contact with soil and water wreaks havoc on the digits. To the rescue: Olivares's homemade salve. "I got the recipe years ago while apprenticing with a farmer in upstate New York," she says. "I make it with my farm-grown calendula, beeswax, and virgin coconut oil. It does it all: treats dry skin and chapped lips; soothes cuts, scrapes, and sunburns; and just generally moisturizes." When she can't whip up her bespoke balm, Olivares uses Wooden Spoon Herbs Heal All Salve ($12; woodenspoonherbs.com).
