Question by 30 year old: What’s the best hand cream for day care workers, nurses or other people who frequently wash their hands?
I work at a daycare and change diapers, feed, and clean all day, so I’m constantly washing my hands. I would say I wash them between 40-60 times a day. My skin is so dry and thick, you can pinch the back of my knuckels and the skin doesn’t go back. I get paper cuts easily and I have tiny painful bumps on my palms and sometimes back of my hands (the doctor says it’s ezcema from dry skin). I’ve recently thought about the paraffin wax baths, but not sure if it’s worth the investment. Is there anything that you can recommend from experience or someone who you know. It seems that I’ve tried 5-6 different creams and it’s just not enough. Thank you!

I like Oil of Olay quench or Jergens Ultra Healing lotion. Both make my hands soft without feeling oily.

Question by Flona: What’s a good body cream I could use?
I have VERY dry skin on my legs and I need a really good moisturizing lotion…I am currently using Nivea for very dry skin but it isn’t doing a good job and I am getting spots from it. Have used Nivea that is anti-wrinkle, it was ok….Is the Neutrogena body cream good? What do you think I should use?

I have the same problem. I’d use Cocoa butter cream. You could probably find it in a department store like shopper’s drugmart. It works for me. Anything that contains Vitamin E helps. You could also try Vaseline extra strength moisturizing cream. Don’t use anything heavly perfumed it irritates skin.
