Any recommendations for a good winter hand cream?

I'm determined not to get those painful cracks this year!

My vote is for Eucerin Aquafor.

Be careful with products containing nut oils if your patient has a peanut allergy. A friend of my daughter's has a severe peanut allergy and suffered a reaction when bathing a child she was babysitting with a bath product containing almond oil. She is so sensitive that she might react to a touch from a nurse wearing such a product.

Yet another thing to worry about!

I have awfully dry skin the year round and have found Neutrogena is the best for cracks in your fingers and heels. It is pretty greasy so I only use it at night with gloves and socks on but it really really works.

If you like smelly/perfumy things, TrueBlueSpa's Look Ma, New Hands! and Glove Me Tender handcreams are my favorite. Kind of expensive but I love it. It has an orangy-scent to it.

I like Hemp Hand Cream from The Body Shop, Great Shakes and Endless Glove from Soap & Glory, and my favorite, L'Occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream.

I like the bath n body works antibacterial creams and moisturizing hand soaps. l use both in the winter and only have a little problem around my rings (eczema from way back) and i use either eucerin or aquaphor on that.

I use Seacrest which is made in Isreal, but you can find it in many malls at the kiosks.

I pay about $20 per tube...they'll try to sell it to you for $40, but when you don't buy, the price comes down quick!
