    In a pinch you could also use products designed for each particular purpose.

    If you get oil or difficult to remove dirt and grime on your hands, put a small amount of liquid dish detergent and two teaspoons of sugar together, and rub it all over your hands, works just as good as Lava soap.

    If you have to do something really disgusting with your hands (gut fish, change diapers, etc.), wash your hands with toothpaste afterwards.
