cracked and dry hands what cream ?

[cocker]

And you found this out by accident ?

Only the first time !

 

[Migmac]

The stuff you put on babies bums, sudocreme?

 

[Cobbler]

Is a anyone familiar with barrier cream? Back in the day when I did my mechanics NVQ we used to be given cream that protected hands from automotive contaminants and made them easier to clean after work. But cant find anything like that now.

Google it, loads available, or somewhere like Boots would have some. I was told Liberon made a good one as well, never used it though.

I use this stuff, it even takes some washing off, don't know if you can buy it mines on prescription and I have to use it regularly.

 

[Kram]

I used to get really bad cracked heels and fingers, and tried all sorts of creams. Then I started taking cod liver tablets and i've not had a problem since.

@angellonewolf are your hands suffering because of your work? If so then there are high dexterity gloves you can use.

Udder cream works well for me .
I use "uddermint" udder cream , also good for aches . a bit like linament

Just make sure you remain a respectful distance from those 'automated milking parlours' .

I had a tiny jar of "Potions and possibilities" stuff, looks like you can't get it any more though. Very good stuff but flaming expensive IIRC, made O'Keeffe's look cheap!

 

[Blobber]

Wurth used to do stuff called liquid glove, put it on like hand cream and let it dry, superb for working on greasy oily engines and stuff like that, when your done just wash your hands in warm water, I think it's all the cleaners people wash their hands with these days causing the problems

 

[MetalMonkey]

For barrier creams I like PR88, use this loads - oils etc just wash off. For working in the wet Rozalex wet-guard.

For repair creams - usually either E45 or Doublebase - or steal some of the better halves posh stuff.
Eumovate on occasion if its really scabby.

My Mum used to advise getting a lamb's tail from a butcher and rub it over/on your hands, apparently they're almost pure lanolin. I've no idea if it's true or whether she was having us on, never had reason then to test it.

But everyone knows Mum knows best, don't they?

Sudocreme is also good for a fully grown overweight adult with a "sweaty bottom".

Trust me (personally) on this one!

E45 (cheaper) or the Neutrogena equivalent, but you have to use it for a few weeks to get the results on really poor dry / cracking skin.

E45 has been about since god was a boy, works for me.

We buy it in a big pump action dispenser and use it after showering, good stuff.
