Does anyone have a suggestion for a good hand lotion? My hands are dry, but I don't want to leave a slime trail over my keyboard and touchscreen. I try to remember to put it on every night, but I frequently forget. Thanks.

Try the Aveno Intense Relief Hand Cream or Overnight Cream. They're bloody amazing. My hands are usually like sandpaper, and these products fix them immediately. Plus they're not greasy, which is great. Most importantly, a little goes a long way with them, so the tubes will last you a long, long time

I have some dry skin problems and have settled on Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion, which I can get in 18 oz. bottles at Costco. That makes it cost efficient. Hand and body lotions are a ripoff in small sizes. I also like the lack of scent.

This stuff works if I use it once a day and is not greasy.

Have also used Neutrogena which contains a sunscreen and it is very good, though much more expensive.

I understand tha using lotions just after you bathe is best because they are more a matter of trapping moisture than adding it.

I use Olay Total Effects body and hand lotion, its very light and quick absorbing. Works really good for me.

use Ahava mineral hand cream. It smells very nice and does a good moisteurizing job.

My hands get dry and irritated pretty easily - I've tried tons of different hand lotions -- the 2 different lotions that have worked the best for me (and absorb quickly) are:

1) Jack Black Industrial Strength Hand Healer:

2) Kiehl's Ultimate Strength Hand Salve

Besides ordering it from their official sites, I usually order Jack Black's hand lotion from http://www.beauty.com/jack-black-industrial-strength-hand-healer/qxp75113?catid=298683&N=0 (it's free shipping when you spend $25 or more per order on that site or its linked site http://www.drugstore.com

I use Eucerin. When I move to the US, my skin started becoming really dry all the time so I had to find a good lotion and Eucerin did the job. Select one that matches how dry your skin is.

I recommend the "cleverly" titled lotion by Kiehl's 'Unusually Rich But Not Greasy-At-All-Hand Cream'

Lemon custard? Ooooh, I need summa dat.

For covered body parts & inside (i.e., no sunscreen), Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion. Unscented, long-lasting, inexpensive.

For hands/arms/face, Eucerin Everyday Protection SPF 30. Again, unscented, inexpensive, and doesn't bother my contact lenses.

I use Suave Cherry Blossom shampoo and now if I get the Lemon Custard hand cream imma be a whoie fruit salad.






Really, don't bother. Any joke here would be too obvious.

Lubriderm Intense Skin Repair is very moisturizing. And it's near scentless.

Guuurl, you would smell FRESH!!!!

Norwegian hand cream is the very best. My uncle sweared by the stuff. Neutrogena make it.

I use either Eucerin or Lubriderm. The best trick I've found though is to put it on heavy just before bed and let it work all night.

Trader Joe's A Midsummer Night's Cream. Inexpensive, unscented, moisturizes extremely well, and is not greasy.

Mmmmmm......

Is it safe to put on your Coriolanus?

Thanks for all the tips guys! I found that the Curel Ultra Healing lotion works very well on my hands, but it's too greasy during the day. All of the lotions I've tried are either too greasy or too sticky to use during the day. I wash my hands frequently, and that's why they are dry. It's worse in the winter.

This stuff is awesome. it has a very light citrus scent, soaks right in and doesn't leave you feeling greasy.

Vaseline works for me.

Gerard Butler and I will test it out tonight and get back to you.

I prefer this* and also use cocoa butter.
