Cracked Skin - Need a Good Home Remedy
I have BADLY chapped and cracked hands. Especially all my knuckles. Anyone have a good remedy?

Do you have any vitamin E capsules or oil? Break open the capsules, if you do, and rub the oil into your hands. (Or just pour on the oil.)

Putting the oil on your hands is just good for removing the soreness, but I think if you take Vitamin E its also good for your skin. Not certain about that....
My hands tend to crack badly in the wintertime, too (and just about anytime from having my hands in hot water a lot). Most lotions either don't really help, or will sting and burn any cracked areas. My best results have been from:
Arbonne body butter <----best results
Arbonne hand cream
Putting Vitamin E oil on sore spots
Weleda Skin Food, and Weleda Almond Moisture Cream <----my favorite because it has a very light scent, and is good for sensitive skin

Yes, it is. But it works great for dry skin. Keith has a horrible of eczema, so we've "tried them all"
Pure olive oil with cloth gloves at bedtime is good. That works well.
Cornhusker's Lotion is also good.
The key to it is that whatever you use, you have to keep it up. You can't stop just because you got it cleared up.

Re: Cracked Skin - Need a Good Home Remedy
Apply Neutrogena liberally and put on gloves. You can leave them on all night.
