Dry winter skin

RELATABLE as I work in the hospital and my hands really get cracked sometimes. This is gonna sound time consuming but also having a general skin routine. My skin started waging war on me when we got colder weather this winter so I really try to also exfoliate when I shower. Theres a Cerave one on Amazon that is a scentless body wash and when I finish showering and toweling off I apply lotion right away. I use a sort of thicker lotion like Cerave and also Aveeno for less dry areas. I ended up seeing a skin MD some time ago for something else and she mentioned the first 5 mins after showering is when your skin absorbs lotion best.

I also use Burts Bees wax for my hands and the Okeefes feet cream for my heels etc but I TRY to use socks after so it doesnt wipe off right away

 

What was your experience with Burt Bees wax?

 

The product for hands is actually really good. Its helped my hospital hands a ton and also helps the cuticles! You do have to kind of rub it into your hands for a good while until it feels kinda like "matte" otherwise youll be putting greasy fingerprints everywhere etc

 

Man1 oil....

 

Thanks for your input!

Doing detailing, having diabetes, and winter my hands are dry. I tried different hand moisturizer with little effect or less than satisfying results. I tried Burt Bees lip balm with good results. Worked better than Chapstick brand.

 

My heals were cracked - I got these - took awhile but they healed.
