one of my all time favorites is from the crazy lady Joan Rivers - her Absolutely Magic hand cream - it's the best! Her Absolutely Magic foot cream is too but I can't find it anywhere any more! The foot cream has dimethicone in it, so if you find hand cream with that as an ingredient, should be very healing.
