Agree with the Udder Cream.

My cousin just got a small machine that has ultra violent light that treats her eczema or psoriasis
condition (forgot which she has) It's for home use and her insurance covered it. She use to go to the Dr. to get the light treatments. The strength of the light is set by a prescription from her Dr. and now she doesn't have to go in for treatments .

I use udder cream when sewing. Found a large pump bottle at Menard's for a low price. Have it next to my sewing machine. I use Physicians Second Skin (I believe that is what it is called) on cuts or on cracked thumbs. Really heals them.

I read some directions for using Lubriderm to help with free motion quilting, so it must not damage fabric. I just put some on and my hands aren't sticky. I think using something regularly is more important than what we use. I like Bath and Body Works Shea hand creams.

gloves in a bottle is my lotion of choice for dry-winter hands- a little bit goes a long way- no greasiness - protects for a long time- was given a gift of *udder cream* once- it caused immediate red spots and horrible itching/burning- so i guess i'm allergic to something in it-
gold bond medicated is also a very good choice

I use Cerave lotion when I am sewing or quilting and then use Cerave cream all other times. I have very sensitive skin and am able to use this even on my face. I buy it at Walgreens or Walmart. It is not cheep but a little goes a long way.
