Many lotions make my chapped hands itchy, so I now make my own cream. Mix together with a hand mixer: 8 oz. of coconut oil (I use Lou Ana's found in the baking aisle)
8 oz. Vitamin E cream
16 oz bottle of any baby lotion
I soften the coconut oil in the microwave about 10 seconds before adding the remaining ingredients. Your skin absorbs almost immediately & I haven't had any cracked fingertips or heels this whole winter. If you are interested, Google coconut oil, it has many healing benefits.
