I can get the measurements, but a lady at work makes this cream and said it's wonderful for dry skin.

Vitamin E, baby oil, and Vaseline.

That sounds like the same one I use but instead of oil, lotion.

All of these tips are great, SH. But once your hands are healed, use CORN HUSKERS LOTION several times a day. It's great!

Actually super glue should be in your frist aid kit. You cam close wounds with it after they have been cleansed and disinfected properly.

Got to go get me some for the house. In hard times I'd rather glue my skin than sew it..........

I have used super glue for cuts... but I have like 462 cracks - it would take a month of Sundays to glue them all.

Vaselene might help sooth the cracks away and hold in mosture.

I think you can get Bag Balm at Wal-mart. I also recommend Eucerin cream.
