cuts on your hands fast, due to... The Winter weather Washing them etc. I mean I use lot's of lotion, even spended nearly over $20 bucks more then once to try the top of the line lotion that was supposed to work or should have worked.

Well I know heavy moisturizer like gold bond and rubber gloves works if you wear them long enough. Lanolin and gloves will work also. Good luck with that

Aloe will help heal the cuts, but you need to do something about the dry skin. Cotton gloves and vaseline or olive oil at night works. Then a ton of lotion during the day, and don't let your hands stay wet, especially in the cold, if you can help it.

snort a pill, that will cure anything....... no seriously, if you hands are cracking they'll continue to crak befor ethey can heal no matter if you using lotion or not. i know this sounds weird but i used to have this happen to my finger tips were i worked and they never healed. put super glue on them and glue the cracks closed, they won't tare open again and it will give them time to heal (and yes superglue is safe to use like that, it was first created as a liqiud bandage for wwii soilders and the formula hasn't changed yet)

It's a wax dip John. They use it in salons or spas. In our it's only 5 dollars a dip, or you can buy one at the store and do it yourself. Works for me and I too have my hands in water constantly.

Oh alright thanks misty_57. I found one off of amazon for $27.95 not sure if that is worth that price or not, but I guess it would be if it works.
