Geoff.C 0 Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 Neutrogena and E45 are both very good, but any hand cream is beneficial. You just need to use it regularly, BEFORE your hands start to be sore and skin splits. I use hand cream every day, even in summer,putting it on just before bed. My late dad also swore by the value of marmite on toast, (if you like it). He reckoned the vitamins were good for your skin,treating it from inside. When dad was a P.O.W. he said they could buy marmite off the chinese travelling traders, and used to rub it into sores and wounds caused when playing with the big train set the Japs gave them.

skycat 6,173 Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 I get them terrible in my thumbs during winter: a mixture of cold and damp causes it. The only thing I have found to really get rid of those cracks is what I put on the dogs' pads: Padsanol from the Greyhound Megastore. It works a treat: use several times a day until cracks are healed then once a day before you are likely to get cold/wet hands. http://209.85.129.104/search?q=cache:PEq5t...uk&ie=UTF-8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Missie 1 Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 I wouldn't use tea tree to be honest, its best for blemishes etc. It will help to heal it but it will also smart a bit! I'd go for the E45 and use it regularly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
