Get the plain Shea Butter one...think it may be around 20% shea butter. Good stuff.

Here it is

I destroyed my hands this week with constant hand-washing, and have ben healing them with Aveeno Intense Relief Hand Cream w/Colloidal Oatmeal. It's not greasy and it lasts through hand-washing. You can get it at CVS.

I usually love my frou-frou Laura Mercier, but the Aveeno is much more healing for chapped and overdried hands. Their products in general are great, I think.

It's funny you posted this dc, because I bought the Aveeno lotion at CVS a few weeks back and it's not doing mine or my bf's hands any good

I guess everything works different for different people!

I have heard good things about this Nivea creme. I want to try it myself this winter, too.

I love the Neutrogena Norwegian Formula, and like the fact that they als make it fragrance free. It's nicely thick cut not too greasy

Agreed. But I love the fragrance in the original one. It reminds me of my childhood. . .

Ive been really hard on my hands this month because of making centerpieces with christmas greens and this is what I do: I use a small nail brush with a gentle exfoliating scrub and brush hands- then I use Amlactin moisture cream- it is a miracle cream! I got it at the grocery store. Its a bit pricey at about 15.00- but it sure works!

Thanks girls - I think I'm going to try the L'Occtaine since so many of you love it. I'll let you know if it works. Thanks!
