Dry Hands
#22
I use the Eucerin cream that comes in a jar and is labeled for really dry skin. I slather it on at night--my hands and feet. It helps so much. My skin usually cracks and bleeds in the winter and it hasn't this year because I have been using this cream.

I also have this problem. I hate lotion. When My thumbs split from the needle pokes and dry skin I use Liquid Skin. I think it helps. I try to remember to put lotion on but hate the feeling.

My hands get so abused by gardening and chlorine.... I use Burts bees Hand salve. It is best used at night and then put some gloves on. It can be oily, so don't use it before you quilt. I do, however, rub some on before I garden, and it helps keep my hands from so much abuse! My husband doesnt like the smell..... hmmmmm.....that could be used to my advangage at certain times...LOL
