Last year I was on the quitville.com and read about a homemade hand lotion. I make it at the holidays and give it to all of my quilter friends. It works great, you can put it on, and quilt away, no grease and no damage to material. Your hands feel like silk. Here's the recipe I order my creams from Drugstore.com or the natural food stores. 4oz.Vitamin A Cream,4oz.Vitamin E Cream,2oz. of Creamy Baby Oil,2oz of creamy Vaseline Petroleum Jelly. Mix with a mixer and package. This stuff is awesome. I even have told the store clerks about this and bank tellers. As a past teller I can tell you your skin becomes so dry. Hope this helps. It takes work but it is so worth it.
