Lotion recommendation

[HGoat]

I know this probably won't get many serious responses, but I thought I would give it a try. Hard to wade through all of the online advertising to find legitimate reviews, so I thought I'd ask my friends at CF.

I work in a Bio/pharmeceutical research environment where I often have to shower 5-6 times a day. It has been really hard on my skin this winter. I've been having a hard time finding a good lotion that can both keep my skin from getting dry under this punishment, while also not leave behind a greasy oil film after it is applied.

What works for you?

Tony Siragusa was a spokesperson for Vaseline for men.....oh, no, nevermind...he was the spokesperson for some male bladder control diaper.

I've had good luck with Aquaphor

The ointment seems to heal, say, dry, cracked hands in just a day or two. I don't use it now, but a nurse I know once recommended using it covered with plastic gloves in extreme cases.

They have a lot of variations of their basic lotion, all seemingly good, mostly different mixtures it seems of the same basic ingredients, which I still use some in the winter. You are supposed to use it right after you shower, as I recall, to seal the moisture in.

Right when I saw this post. I was ready to search for this gif. You beat us all.

Gold bond for men is decent or eurcerin if its really bad.

Aquaphor is good. We have pretty good luck with Cetaphil too. It doesn't go on as thick as the Aquaphor but it doesn't leave as much residue as the Aquaphor either.

Jerkins?

Cera Ve if it’s hardcore bad.

CeraVe. My dermatologist recommended it for my winter dry skin. Apply to the skin while still damp from the shower, then pat dry. It helps a LOT.

I was looking for Eurcerin. It is the lotion made by the same company that makes Aquaphor, which after posting I see is just the ointment. It isn't the brand name of their lotion.

Glysolid is one that my mom uses a lot and likes - farm life can be tough on hands.

 

[isuno1fan]

CeraVe without question. You’ll love it.

I'll second Gold Bond. Started using it after my hands cracked badly last month, helped quite a bit.

Chapstick for cuticles and knuckles. Saves your hands from getting all greasy. Boom!

Whatever lotion you get, put some nair with it. Will keep the hair off the palms.

Hempz. The blue kind. Can find it cheaper on amazon or Marshall’s/TJ maxx.
