Dry hands.

Lotion?

What’s your lotion of choice with these frequently washed hands?

Me. Aveeno

And right before bed, copious amounts of Aquaphor. The stuff folks slather on fresh tattoos.

My hands are dry! But getting better.

Glysomed. Get it on lone. We discovered on our visit to Canada. It was so dry and we weren't use to it so my cousin gave us some to keep our hands from cracking. It works wonders. Cheap too and do not feel grease

My dad gets really dry hands during the winter and he sometimes uses a ton of some lotion, like bag balm and the put loose firing cotton gloves on to sleep.

The palm of one of my hands is never dry, I wonder why?

Whenever I get dry soles and heels on my feet, I apply bag balm at night and put on old cotton socks. After about three nights, I'm good for a couple of months.

Bag balm is great. Pretty greasy.

I've been usIng Okeefs working hands. I get super dry knuckles and cuticles. This stuff is great. I am typing on an iPad right now 5 minutes after application.

Try it.

Eulactol Heel Balm,

I think you US guys have the stuff marketed under the name Scholl or Dr Scholl.

Yes, hands are cracking up under the pressure. Mainly around finger nails.

I was having really dry and cracked heels and my dermatologist told me to get some CeraVe SA creme. Amazon sells it as well as many other sources.

After three weeks of applying it to my feet, primary the heels, my feet are back to normal, and my hands are softer. I put it on, and then put on my socks. I have to roll my socks up kinda like a condom to put them on over the CeraVe.

I use a little dab of in on my hands after multiple hand washing in a day. Good stuff.

I have tried so many types. I get cracking and painful fissures in the winter. Plus I have eczema on top of that. Aquaphor works best for dryness. Hydrocortisone for the eczema. Unfortunately the Aquaphor is greasy. Per my dermatologist you want to avoid most lotions as they contain waxes that buildup on the skin and prevent actual moisturizing eventually.

coconut oil infused hand cream. A winter season go to, as at 1,500 feet above sea level the air is very dry in the winter.
