my hands do this every winter

It doesn’t hurt but it’s annoying as hell

YES I MOISTURIZE

Lotions will evaporate or dry out exposed to air so the membrane of a glove will prevent/prolong that from happening allowing your hand to soak up more of the product for longer. Same reason you put the lid back on the jar instead of just leaving it exposed to the air. So, yeah, not at all what they said but the right idea.
