Extremely dry hands!

I work in a day nursery and a gymnastics club and my hands are extremely dry due to changing nappies, washing up, washing my hands 5 billion times a day, chalk, etc. They've got to the point where they feel so dry that they're becoming rough :\
Does anyone know any amazing handcreams which will really work? I have quite sensitive skin too. I'm not too bothered about price, if it's worth it, I'll pay out for it :)

I'm in the UK, so UK-available products only please :) I prefer not to order online :

Thanks!xx

This is by far my favorite hand cream. It is so super hydrating, feels great on the hands, doesn't smell like much, and absorbs quickly. I use it before bed, but I used to be a gymnast and I understand that you'll most likely need to use it approximately every 5 minutes. It'll do wonders for your hands =)

I'm sorry the link is for a danish site and I don't know if this exact product is available in the uk, but I'm sure there is something similar!

Well this creme is called "the invisible glove" and I have used if for days where I need to wash my hands a lot - I know many nurses use it!

I don't know if it's available where you live, but okeefe's working hands and hawaiian moon aloe are both fantastic.

For me I would never ever change to a different hand cream I recommend soap & glory hand food its super affordable which is a bonus my hands used to be sooo dry people used to notice it I tried everything under the sun but this changed me lol I still use it twice a day just to keep on top of it but my hands feel so soft and soo smooth its unreal!! 👌

Burt's beesilk and honey hand lotion. I use it every morning. I work in a Dr's office all day and then in a restaurant on the weekends. So I'm constantly washing my hands. I hope this helps! Its about $7.00.

I would recommend before you go to sleep wiping Vaseline or petroleum jelly all over the tops of your hands and wrists, slip socks on each of your hands. Go to bed and in the morning your hands will be super soft!! My hands were extremely dry and I actually just did this the other day and I woke up with smooth hands! Hope this helped!

I feel your pain! my hands are VERY dry and rough lately. I've used soap and glory hand food, loccitane shea hand cream and the body shop shea hand cream. The best one was loccitane. Its pricey about 15-20 euro for the bigger size and 8 euro for the small one but it made a huge difference! also la roche posay cicaplast baume works great if you put it on the dry parts of your hands before bed, thats about 8euro for 40ml.

I actually like the Neutrogena Norwegian Hand Cream. Its ridiculously good. And it makes your hands look so young haha. My mom started using it recently and shes seen such an improvement.

You could also try using an oil on your hands before bef.

Emu oil! I live in the uk also! And I have super sensitive skin! Order it from Ebay! You'll get it within 3-5 days! It's so moisturising! Apply it at night! If that doesn't work then try e45 or go to your doctors! Xx
