That or this one are my go-tos. I work in coolers and freezers a lot.

This is the real answer to these problems. People don’t know how amazing this stuff it. Norwegian formula is ordered in 6 packs every so often in my home 😂

I can attest to the effectiveness of this - a previous partner would sit on the edge of the bed every night after I had gone to sleep and would spend about 10 minutes working that hand cream into his hands. He would vigorously do this every night and the movement always woke me up so now this cream is nothing but a bad memory thanks for that jk!

Neutrogena’s hand cream is great. Recently I found that Vanicream Daily Facial Moisturizer works even better. It has a lot of glycerin like the Neutrogena, but also squalane, hyaluronic acid, and ceramides. It’s much more resilient to hand washing than other moisturizers, I think because of the squalane. I’ve had fewer hand eczema flares since I started using it.

This is my go too, a little more expensive but it gets absorbed quick so you dont have so smudgy hands.

Makes people think it’s common in Norway which is a notoriously cold country. Seems like dry hands becomes a problem during the winter

Have used this Neutrogena hand cream for half of my life and I haven’t found anything better than that!!

I have been using this for 50 years, maybe a pea-size blob every night. My hands used to chap so badly they'd bleed. Sometimes I had a bandaid on every finger.
