Gross

My hands look like this all over...I'm not sure what it is, but lotioning religiously is not helping. Also, when I put my eczema cream on it, the condition worsens...I hate my sensitive skin...

Ok I know this may sound weird, but try stuff called Udder Cream if you can find it. We used it at the daycare when our hands got bad all the time from changing diapers all the time. Yes, it was made for cows, but is now also made for humans and works wonders. I don't know where they sell it though...my friend's aunt works there and always got it for us. But then again that was a long time ago.

I'm sure you've tried all there is to try, and that doesn't really look the same as what my hands do in the winter...But when mine get really bad I do Cetaphil lotion several times throughout the day, and a thick layer of Eucerin cream at night. The Cetaphil stings a little at first on cracked skin, but it's worth it!

Recently, I also like body butter from The Body Shop...Japanese cherry blossom, or Brazil nut...smells SO good! It's thick and oily, too.

I've never heard of this Udder Cream...might have to try that! :)

I have no advice, but I feel your pain.

becky, its from washing your hands so much with a new little one at home. i also recommend the udder cream or aquaphina (not sure on spelling) lotion. the thicker the better and not using hand sanitizer alot since the alcohol dries out your skin. good luck, warmer weather will help as well. tanya
