A recent increase in obsessive hand-washing = pretty dry hands.
Anyone have a good intensive hand cream they suggest?
Does anyone here wear gloves w/cream to bed?
Migs?
-
nothing like a good hand parrafain treatment. I wear socks with peppermint cream to bed every now and then. Try Bonds medicated cream, not greasy at all
-
I use Corn Huskers Lotion it works really well for me , I have never been able to wear gloves at all even for a minute.
I've used it with Shea butter a few times in the winter for my feet too.

I have a friend who has some sort of weird skin condition where she doesn't produce moisture. She needs prescription lotions, but for her hands she like this stuff. A little goes a long way. I didn't care for it though.

I've heard great things about Udder Cream.

This is the lotion I use most often now, and I never have a problem with dry skin Though when I lived in snowy places like New England, in Winter I often applied baby oil to my skin immediately after a shower (though while still in the shower), then pat the skin dry with a towel; if necessary you can still apply lotion afterwards. This was excellent defense against dry skin!

I wish I had her problem! :P
Some musicians have been known to call me "Nasty Hand" because when I sit in on their guitar-even for 2 songs- my sweat just fouls up the strings and....it ain't pretty. :-\
Nasty Hand Syndrome....don't let it happen to you!
-
I dont play the guitar but my hands sweat pretty bad, If i put my hand palm down on a desk for a min or so and move it there will definitely be a area of moisture where my hand was :-[
and gloves to bed...really?

I use that as well. My body chemistry has changed since I hit 32. When I was younger I had only skin, especially on my face, much to my annoyance. Now, my face is dry. I have to constantly oil my face, whether it be lotion or moisturizer. I can wash my face and 30 minutes later it's dry as the sahara. I was wondering if it could be because of my HCTZ medication. Aquaphor healing ointment is good as well.

What are you using as a cleanser on your face? Shaving with a razor or electric? Aftershave? Do you take fish oil? Aquaphor is too greasy IMO.

I use a razor, and I use Gillette Foamy for Sensitive Skin, I don't really use aftershave, because that drys me out. I use Neutrogena Face Scrub Razor Defense on and off. I should be taking more fish oil. What is odd is that if I use Proactiv Repairing lotion, I have a slight oily ness, but I don't dry out.
Also, my lips have been drying out as well, since 2 winters ago. And I could have chapstick but doesn't work. Aquaphor does it.
Tommy, I have the sweaty hands as well, it's on and off, when I was younger, it was more on than off. I always thought it was nerves, or possibly a lack of vit d, don't know.
-
i douse my face with gasoline and lite a match....wooompfff! :D i do that with my poobes also...now DATS hardcore >:(
<on a serious note...shaving AFTER a hot shower and conditioning your face helps take off the stubble like butter...>
-
Does anyone here wear gloves w/cream to bed?
eww stells ewwwwww....that squelchy...(somehow squelchy perfectly describes it) feeling i can only imagine one would get from that.....like getting ones foot caught in wetmuck and pulling it out...
shudder
-
don't touch me.
okay maybe just a little. ;D
They do have special mittens with lotion works well. I got those and the socks for someone before and they liked them very much
-
I've never tried gloves while sleeping. The best, non-greasy hand lotion i've found is E.L.F. (vanilla coconut = divine).
-
I really dont understand how the gloves at night is supposed to help ???
-
TRY JUST PLAIN OLD OLIVE OIL,THE CONSTANT WASHING STRIPS THE NATURAL OILS FROM YOUR SKIN LEAVING IT DRY AND ROUGH. :)

I should snap a picture of my hands, they're literally look like I dipped them in powdered sugar beween all my fingers. :o
I've heard that gloves with corn huskers is really good to use.

Holds in the moisture and heat which penetrates more. The gloves should be cotton so they "breathe"
-
Just wash them less.
