Default Re: Winter time and those painful cracks in the corners of the chapped thumbs

When I was in route sales for 17+ years the cold and the chemicals were Hell on our fingers !
I did try just about everything over the counter and Corn Huskers and this cream I got for new tattoos that had different vitamins in it worked the best for me . I did was my hand a lot and used a lot of the creams as much as I could . Worked very well for me and healed up nicely .

Just look on what's in it . If it have alcohol in it , that will dry your skin out fast . Stay away from anything with that in it .

I have bad cracks in my hands during the winter. What I found that works is :

First, apply Bag Balm. Then, use some vasoline hand cream with Aloe and mix the bag balm with the Vasoline Hand Cream. Both together work real well. The Aloe helps a lot.
