Question

I work in a place where the dry climate make my hands very dry and my nails crack and my cuticles look horrible what are some good solutions for this?

Answer 1

Vaseline and cotton gloves at night. just slather up your hands and then put on the gloves and go to sleep.

Do this every single night for ever and you will love the results.

Answer 2

The fragrant gardener intensive hand & nail cream is excellent this is the best hand cream I have ever used, In my job I use a lot of chemicals & it does dry out your skin nails etc but after testing many hand creams this one I would never be without. The thing I dont like is the lavender smell but that wears off quickly.

Keep your hands moist. Keep a small tube of lotion on you at all times. Even after you wash your hands your hands can tend to be very dry, i know my hands are. I would think anything wiht Shea Butter in it is good. Its not scented like girly lotions and it really moisturizes well. They also sell "hand and cuticle" creams. Take a look at your local drug store or CVS. Good luck :)

Neutrogena Hand Lotion. I put it on in the morning and it lasts even through some hand-washings. I apply at night too. I use my fingertip to just do the cuticles and top of hands. Don't waste the lotion on my palms. I've used it for years and think it's wonderful.
