Too much hand washing?

DD (13, AS etc etc) is a bit germ obsessed. She's always had a bit of a thing about getting her hands dirty and being ill and making sure food is properly cooked and stuff.
I have noticed recently her hands are looking really crusty and dry and I suspect she is overdoing the handwashing. Not millions of times a day but more than 'normal'.
I have told her to moisturise them and to put some hand cream in her school bag but what else can I do?
How can I head it off before it gets really too much?
