Don't laugh, but I posted this silly photo on Instagram the other day:
I was testing out some baggies on my hands with coconut oil to see if I could find some relief for my poor hands! I always seem to get dry hands during the winter, but this particular winter has been bad (mostly the last week). Once I started to see blood on my knuckles, I knew I should probably try and find a solution so that they didn't sting throughout the day.
Sadly, the coconut oil felt nice while it was on, but it didn't work for keeping my hands moisturized.

but…the GOOD NEWS! Several friends jumped to my rescue, and they ALL RECOMMENDED the same thing. This left me with the feeling that maybe I am truly the last person to know about this solution. So sorry if this is old news, but if it isn't, here's what worked (and it's easy):
My friends told me to try Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream for Dry Chapped Hands. I went and bought some that very day (Found some at Walmart). And let me tell you…it worked beautfiully. It immediately locked in the moisture I needed without leaving my hands greasy. It's by far the best hand cream I have ever tried and I am truly indebted to my friends. Bless your souls. Thank you Britanee!

o’keeffe’s working hands has worked really well for me and absorbs fairly quickly so you don’t feel all oily.

I work with cardboard every day and I think it absorbs the natural oils in my fingertips! I will try Neutrogena and/or O’Keefe & hope one or both help. Thank you!
