Hi Ladies,

Could you tell me which hand cream you use. I have the typical dry winter hands, as well as the crepiness starting.

Any real good products out there?

What can I do next?

I also use the Neutrogena Norwegian hand cream. I put it on right before bed. It is really good stuff.

I use either the hemp hand protector of the kinetin hand treatment both are wind and water resistant. The hemp tends to heal cracks and is by far my most popular item!!

You can find it on my website

I love the Eucerin Calming Creme. It's super-thick and unscented. I also use Burt's Bees cuticle balm during the day when my cuticles start to get dry.

Hi L.,

Just joined and don't know if you have a hand cream that you are satisfied with or not. I am offering you a free sample of Satin Hands Pampering treatment by Mary Kay Cosmetics that includes a hand cream. It leaves your hands feeling smooth and soft instantly. Your hands will feel renewed. The set includes a Scrub, Extra emollient Night Cream and a Hand Cream. Each item can be purchased separately.
Let me know if you are interested.

I like Kiss My Face brand Honey Calendula. My favorite because it's thick and not greasy and it smells good, but not too fragrant.

I second what Amanda recommended - the Neutrogena Fast Absorbing cream is the BEST! I have one in my purse & one by my bed - I can't sleep at night without it. For only $6 or so, it can't be beat (in my opinion)!

I use Avon's MOISTURE THERAPY Intensive Hand Cream. It's only $3.99 and works great for me. They also have free shipping if you order online.

Hi L.,

I use Arbonne products...their handcream and also the body serum & lotion are like a miracle in a bottle. Filled with Vit C and other ingredients that actually REPAIR the damage in addition to making it feel moist. I have had very dry skin in the past and this penetrates deep into the lower layers of skin, so you don't feel dry later in the day. All the ingredients are botanical, natural, no dyes, no perfumes, no petroluem or mineral oil (these do nothing for the skin...they just sit on top of your skin...molecules too large to absorb into our skin) every use a lotion and just felt like it never soaked it, etc. that's why!

If you'd like to try this or want info, let me know and I'd be happy to get you a sample. It's just a great find that I love sharing with others. That's what Mamasource is all about sharing info with other women...LOVE IT!

All my best to you!

I love the Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Fast Absorbing Hand Cream. My knuckles crack and bleed in the dry winter months without it. The regular is probably a bit better, and I use it at night, but when dealing with my kids by day, I like the one that dries faster!

My hands cracked every winter until I started using Burt's Bee shea butter hand repair creme twice a day. I have not been able to find in the store so I order it off their web site.

Renew Intensive Skin Therapy. Not only does this lotion come with a 100% money back guarantee, it is the same lotion that took my husband away from vaseline and the same lotion that cleared my nieces eczema. It's safe enough for our whole family. I've been using it on our baby since about 3 months old. Additionally, the lotion beat Eucerin in a double blind clinical study. Take a look at the weblink and click on the video or Renew vs. Eucerin.

I have tried most of the products mentioned below. But the thing that cures my cracked dry hands the best is Udderly Smooth I buy it at Trader Joes or Whole Foods, I think Target even has it. It is actually a medicated cream that is used by farmers to put on Cow udders when they are chaffed. My grandmother (a farmer) has the most beautiful 85 year old hands and I think it is because she used this cream. I know it sounds gross... but it is now sold in stores for people to use and every skeptic I know that tried it loves it. It is amazing and makes your hands smell good and feel soft.

The second thing I would recommend is the Nutregena cream.. can't think of the name, but is says a little dab is all you need. It is a small squeeze tube.

I only use Aveda Hand Relief. It's thicker, feels awesome, smells great, and doesn't have such a greasy feeling like others do. Makes my hands feel wonderful.

My favorite is the hemp hand cream through the body shop at home. I am a consultant for body shop but have used this product for over 10 years and just recently began using it daily due to getting a "dry ring" under my wedding bands from the weather. I offer a member perk through mamasource if you are interested...free shipping on $20. Also, if you host a body shop at home party you get $100+ in free products (which would earn you a lot of hemp hand cream for free :-). If you are interested in the hand cream or the party...
