Anyone got any advice re preventing cracked hands (other than man up or wear gloves!) I have been trying OKeefes Cream but this morning they are so bad I can hardly hold a cup!?
 
I use the okeefes cream and find its good as it soaks in and dries quick , but I’m guilty of not using it all the time, as it’s really more of a preventative measure than a cure, and should be applied a few times throughout the day.
Atrixo is good but takes a while to dry.
I remember one instance my hands were bad, when I got home I slavered them in atrixo and then put some rubber gloves on to keep them moist.
When the skin splits it’s sore...

This is starting to heal now, but when they really sore I put some salvon on it and a plaster to keep it moist.
My dad suffers from dry hands too, his ritual is before work cover his hands in Vaseline then dry them over the gas ring on the cooker!
 
might be OK for you southern softiesbut up here in the frozen north where men are men, we use Hypoy 90 gearbox oil.:D:D:D
Being so hard and tough I would have thought you Northern blokes wouldn't hand cream, just suck up the pain and wait for the weather to get warmer:p:handsopen::tongue:
 
It's kind of reassuring that the dry hands condition is more common than I realised , had problems with this every winter for as long as I can remember, Neutrogena [red-unscented] works well but I'm guilty of not using it regularly enough too.
