Any suggestions on what to use on really dry cracked skin especially your hands.?

Since its cold now my hands get so dry to the point they crack in spots and bleed. I wear band aids over the sore spots. I tried lotion but I wash my hands so many times a day it doesnt help any. Any suggestions on products to use.|||Nivea Cream is good for cracked skin or even St.Ives|||shea butter moustrising hand wash|||Step away from over-washing your hands, especially this time of year. Please follow the next steps:





1. fill a spray bottle with baby oil and spray during the last seconds in the shower;





2. smear on a good moisturizer all over. Vaseline is a good choice.





3. for over-dry area, use Aquaphor. It might seem expensive, but it works really well.





4. at night, put extra Aquaphor on your feet and hands and cover these with socks and cotton gloves.





Good luck!|||deffinately get Aveeno Intense Relief Hand Cream....it lasts through hand washing moisturizing for 24 hrs and plus its non greasy....my hands used to get like that every year until i went to my dermatologist who recommended the aveeno...it works sooooo good! your hands will be smooth and soft in no time!

You can get it at the health food store.|||This may sound funny but...%26quot;Boudreaux鈥檚 Butt Paste%26quot; found on-line or in the baby section in most Walmart or Target stores...I%26#039;ve used it for an number of things, like dry chapped faces that snow skiers and snowboarders may get or flea bites, mosquito bites, even a bee sting, chapped lips, dry cracked hands and of course diaper rash. Other ideas are Bag Balm, or Moo Cream. Corn Huskers is good too it%26#039;s made for dry, cracked hands. For an overnight treatment...I wash my hands with rubbing alcohol, cover my hands and feet with Butt Paste and then wrap them in saran wrap....in the morning when I unwrap them the skin is soft and supple again. Side thought: you could try a triple antibiotic cream (like Neosporin) and wrap them up at night too. Anyway I hope you find relief.|||I highly recommend utter cream, it comes in a square green tin.
