Best treatment for really dry, wrinkly looking hands ?

[Slipsliding]

I'm obsessive about putting on hand cream as i can't bear the feeling of dry hands but my hands are still really dry! I do a lot of washing hands, cleaning etc (kids, nappies, the usual chore-laden mum's lot) and i suppose my hands are weathered from walking with a buggy.
Any tips?

Hi! Your hands must be very dry at the mo, hence the greasiness. Please don't get discouraged. I have a job that requires me to wash my hands 'to the bone' millions of times a day. After spending hundreds of pounds on handcream I found Oilatum the only one that does what it says on the tin.
Let us know how you get on after a week or so :).

Thanks Dili. I got a sample of Dermalogica hand cream. It was good but expensive

I have psoriasis and am finding the Dr. Organics manuka honey range heavenly at the moment. (Health food shop).

The Dr Organic manuka honey bar of soap has been the best bar of soap I have found so far for my eczema prone hands. I try and avoid liquid soap but the rest of the family prefer them, the Dr Organic ones are the least drying/irritating that I have found.

Having tried loads of hand creams have eventually found one that is miraculous, Eucerin, dry skin, Intensive hand cream with 5% urea, available in Boots. I have been using it at night time and really can't believe the difference it has made to my hands, now so soft and feel amazing!

Here is a combo that really worked for me:

1. Simple liquid hand soap
   Their white moisturising one (a pump)
   (any anti-bacterial hand soap really irritates my hands)

2. Burts Bees hand lotion
   The stuff is amazing. It has almond oil and other oils. It properly heals your hands. In three days, it is a night and day difference.
