Extreme dry hands - What Helps!!

My hands are so dry they’re cracking and I’ve tried so much with no relief. I went to Sephora and they had me try Kiel’s Ultimate Strength Hand Salve. I got home and read reviews and ordered it. Does anyone know of more brands that help with my condition? Thank you!!

Nutrogena Swedish formula always my go to for ultra dry hands. Only a small bit is needed its a very emollient gel

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

@RescueLover.  I've used Avon Moisture Therapy Intensive Healing and Repair for years.  I've tried others and always so back to the Avon, which I get on sale very inexpensively..

 

I recently tried Beekman Hand Cream.  What a waste of money as it's an absolutely useless product.

Good old vaseline and cotton gloves at night.

Hands down, Alpha with 12% Glycolic AHA, is the best.  Softest feet ever too.  Amazon.

Keep your hands out of water if you can.  Wear rubber gloves for household chores.  

 

Wear gloves when you go outdoors, even just for a little while.  It makes a difference and protects your nails, too.  Rub a little olive oil into your cuticles when you have it out to do something in the kitchen.

@RescueLover  I use O'Keeffe's Working Hands cream and really like it. I keep it by the kitchen sink, because I have wash my hands a lot. It works even better if I can remember to put some on before I go to bed.
