Thank you! Nikki - I see! Thank you so much for all of the information! I greatly appreciate it! carmengamble - oooh!! Gotta love anything that donates to charities! I'll have to look into it! Thanks! Misty - disgusting, perhaps. But I'm willing to try anything once. :p My hands are totally killing me right now...just rinsed the dishes for the dishwasher. ugh. I'm about to just go out and buy all of these products right now! *sigh* Well I'm getting paid tomorrow so I'll be able to look into these things some more to try to find what will work for me! |
i used to work at bath & body works and i love the hand stuff they have from the c.o. bigelow line. the chapped hands remedy is my favorite. the best thing is their return policy is great, if the product doesn't work like the first week you can exchange it for something else :thumbup: Bath & Body Works - Bath & Body : C.O. Bigelow®: Derma Remedy Intense Dry Skin Therapy Body Lotion Bath & Body Works - Bath & Body : C.O. Bigelow: Dr. Hiosous Quince Hand Lotion Bath & Body Works - Bath & Body : C.O. Bigelow®: Chapped Hands Remedy |
my hands are very very dry!! this weather just kills 'em! :( and i am ALWAYS washing my hands... ALWAYS!! i just reapply lotion, constantly!!! :D |
I think the best and least expensive is Avon's Silicone Glove cream. It even lasts through several hand washings. |
Burt's bees hand repair cream. Its miracle cream for dry, cracked hands! You'll love it, but it does not smell all that great. It works awesome though! |
Megan, for hands and feet a fantastic over night treatment is to wet them and then apply a nice rather thick coat of Vaseline and cover feet with white cotton socks and hands with white cotton gloves. I have also found that--- Udder Cream works great but it has lanolin in it many people are allergic to lanolin. AND if you just want a good hand lotion for daytime use - HEMP hand lotion is great. Yeah, I know, hemp - believe it or not it has many good uses that doesn't require smoke! :lol tears |
I use Vaseline coco butter. & if your willing to spend more Bath & body works True blue is the best. |
LOL..I have tried almost everything here...The one thing I keep going back to is Vaseline... I get the baby one...(smells good).... I wash my hands in cold water...(because to me it is soothing)....I don't dry them...just shake them...and rub Vaseline into my hands ...I get those little paper cuts ..so to me it is so soothing....and when they are painful...those little cuts hurt....(because sometimes they actually throb)..I use Gold Bond cream w/ pain reliever...it really helps with the painful cuts..... PS I use alot of band aides too...I put something soothing on and use 2 band aids (tips of fingers are hard to bandage)..lol ..and it creates moisture and stops the pain...only a temp. fix though.... |
Joey New York *used* to make an AWESOME body lotion. I only have a tiny bit left, and if I knew they were going to discontinue, I would have bougt a case, b/c this lotion instantly heals my dry skin and doesn't feel heavy or leave a greesy feel, yet it stays on and its calm and cooling...sadly, the last time I found it was about 3 yrs ago on ebay :( |
My hands and finger's suffer in this cold weather as well. I accidentaly found a hand cream that really seems to help me. I purchased some Sophia cosmetic's for my granddaughter at Christmas and bought a hand cream for her purse. When it arrived the tube was so small for $8.50 I stuck it in my own bag and bought something else. It's called Bliss, high intensity hand cream. It actually works better that anything I have used in the past. It's expensive, tube is almost sample size but it cleared up my split skin on the tips of my finger's fast. I did use vasoline on the splits at night. You only need a little bit so I guess it will last awhile anyhow. Hope that helps you Megan. |
I use Kiehls - Intensive Treatment and Moisturizer for Dry or Callused Areas. It's pretty thick and works well for the winter. I put this on at night before I go to bed. During the day, I use either lubriderm or aveeno lotion. Intensive Treatment and Moisturizer for Dry or Callused Areas | Kiehl's |
Hey Megan :D I find that the Aveeno Active Naturals Daily Moisturizing Lotion works really well on my hands. I put it on and my skin literally just drinks it up. I love the fact that it actually feels like it GOES INTO my skin and not just sits on top and feels oily and greasy - I HATE that! My hands are just like you described in the winter, and this has been the only thing that has really helped me. It say's on the bottle that it is dermatologist recommended (although I think all Aveeno products are) - it is clinically proven to relieve dry skin, it moisturizes for 24 hours and it IS fragrance free (so none of that AWFUL stinging when you put it on) ;) :thumbup: Of course, not everything works like it says it does on the bottle - but in this case I really feel that what the bottle says is true - at least for ME anyway. I love it and swear by it :D You can actually buy it in a handy little 2.5 oz tube at Wal-Mart (that's where I usually buy mine) if you just want to try it out :) I actually love this size because I can take it everywhere I go and stick it in my purse or whatever :) |
I LOVE LOVE, er, did I mention...LOVE....Extreme Repair Hand Lotion from BeautiControl!!! It is WONDERFUL!! I also like Lubriderm Intense Skin Repair (at Wal-Mart)...it really compares to the BeautiControl one and is about 1/2 the price! My dermatologist recommended Gold Bond Ultimate Healing w/ Chamomille, Eucerin Lotion and using plain Vasoline at night (smother all over or just on hands, feet, etc. and cover w/ sweats, socks, gloves, etc). I found that if I use baby oil right after the shower (even before I dry off), that really helps too! --and don't worry about feeling like an oil slick :biggrin: because it soaks right up! |
My granddaughter has really dry skin and a little excema - the pediatrician told her to use Eucerine Cream (not lotion) and that the walgreens (or store brand) was just as good. It has worked wonders for her. I got a little patch of excema under my watch band a couple of weeks ago. I kept putting my lotion on it and it just got much much worse. It started out as a 1/4 inch patch and spread to about a quarter size patch. I used the Walgreens Eucerine for about 3-4 days and it was GONE!! I was soooo amazed!!! Good stuff! I put vaseline on my feet and then put on socks. I can't do that on my hands, I just can't stand it, but I think it would work very well, if I could tolerate it. |
