Okay, I am at my wits end. Every winter, I get extremly dry hands. I have used several different over the counter products but nothing seems to help. Does anyone have a product that they use that could help this? I am sick of having dry, itchy hands.

What can I do next?

have you tried Kiehl's or Bliss brands? they carry them at Neiman's ---go there and ask for a sample that you can take home and try before you buy. they both have stronger body lotions.

Renew by Melaleuca is the best moisturizer. It has the healing properties of Tea Tree oil in the lotion. I can get you more information on how to get it and if you would like a sample I will be happy to mail you a sample. ____@____.com

I third the motion for RENEW by MELALEUCA. It has changed my life, and my infant's. She has eczema on her face, well used to, before RENEW. Renew is the miracle cure and is not overpriced like many others. If you want more information then let me know.

Hi there!

Coming from a family full of dermatologists, I am in the know of skin problems/cures.

The problem with most lotions/moist. is that they "lay" on the skin and don't realy penetrate. Have you ever noticed that when you put on lotion....it seems like you didn't put any on about an hour later? Dry and itchy again?
You really need something that truly penetrates the dermal layer of the skin with an anti-inflammatory on it if your skin is that dry/cracked/or itchy. There are only a few of these moisturizers that actaully place ceramides back into the skin which alleviates this problem to the fullest. The best is Barrier Repair by remergentskin.com (great for face/hands) and then ceratopic by skinmedica which is really only for the hads/feet.
Neither of these will leave your skin feeling dry/itchy after using them...and they are not so heavy and thick either.

Hope this helps!

I was looking back over requests and ran across yours. I have to tweak my personal system and that of many clients for fall vs summer skin, and would love to share what works for me and them! It is a free consult, and very educational!

Hi A.! I know exactly what you mean about having dry, itchy hands. It's horrible! I highly recommend trying Arbonne's "Intelligence Hand Cream." It works really well for me. :) If you'd like to try a sample, I'd be happy to give you one, so you can see if it works for you too! Good luck!
Sincerely,

I like the "Beyond Belief" products that you can get at Sally's. They make one cream with Shea butter (I forget the name exactly, but it's in a tub and has a picture of the shea nuts on top... the ladies at Sally's should be able to help you... when I get home tonight, I can look at the tub and update this with the actual name), but it's not that heavy, even though it's a cream. I put it on kinda thickly at night before I went to bed and then put it on a couple of times during the (a bit lighter so that it would soak in faster) and in a few days, my hands were no longer so dry and itchy.

It smells... well, it might be something that some people like... I don't find it offensive, but it kinda reminds me of the sun tanning products that have cocoa butter in it. It's not bad, but it is different. But it works great!

Hope you find something... I hate have having such dry hands - makes them look like my mom's!

A.,
The ONLY hting that I have found which works like a MIRACLE (my husband works outside and has excema) is RENEW intensive skin therapy from Melaleuca. I can help you order some if you would like. It is amazing, and we had tried everything, from Eucerin to Aquaphor, to prescription creams.

Hi, A.! Same problem here! I have been using sugar or sea salt scrubs. They are so AWESOME! They exfoliate your skin and sluff off all the dry, flaky dead skin and moisturize at the same time. Immediately, your hands feel 100 times better!

I personally use Arbonne (though, I'm sure others work as well). And, I also sell Arbonne. This month, I am offering a special on the scubs, which can be used on your entire body, by the way. For every sugar or sea salt scrub you buy from me (they range in price from $26 - $32 and come in lots of scents. You can buy one large one, or a 3 pack of smaller sizes...they also make great gifts), you will automatically be entered into a drawing for a FREE NutriminC RE9 set!

Check out the website for more info on the srubs and the RE9 set!

Send me an email and let me know how many scubs you want to buy for your chance to win the RE9 set! I can accept cash, check, or any major credit card. You can also order them online at my website www.stacybrazington.myarbonne.com

Looking forward to hearing from you!
