i used to use washing up liquid n soil! the gritty-ness in it although made your hands dirtier in the short term, in the end it makes your hands nice and clean!
or washing up liquid and washing powder
or washing up liquid and sugar as already suggested
or washing up liquid and sand if ou got some laying round


basically anything with a fine grit and washing up liquid! :)
