I am looking for a non greasy lotion for my hands that are getting dry as the season changes. Are there any recommendations for any really good lotions or creams?
Lotion for dry hands
- Thread starter mwhals
- Start date
I use Aqua Care. It contains 10% Urea. Urea, according to the makers of Aqua Care, ...actually penetrates the surface of your skin to both restore lost moisture and soften dry, rough skin. All I know is that it works well. It isnt greasy/oily, and it actually works by gathering moisture from your surroundings and trapping it on your skin - this past bit is according to my sister, who turned me on to this stuff.
Aqua Care is distributed by Numark Laboratories, Inc. In Edison, NJ. In the past, I tried a lot of the greasy type lotions, and really didnt like them. Not only because they were too oily, but because they didnt work that well or last very long. Not so with Aqua Care. It works great and lasts for quite a long time.
Good luck. Hope it works for you as well as it does for me.
Corn Huskers Lotion.
I have been doing alot of gardening type work and find this to work well. It can be a bit greasy to start with but it does go.
Also good for shaving too

O keefes working hands is what was standard issue at a hardware store I worked at (our winters were -20farenheit and below). That stuff can work wonders.

A more upperclass performer which I have thoroughly enjoyed is the hand cream with Shea butter from L'Occitane

I third O'Keefes Working Hands.
Unscented Curel
We've been using Cerave and it seems to be working very well. It comes in a cream and a lotion.

Thanks! I ended up ordering two O'Keefe's Working Hands - one for home and one for work.
you won't be disappointed!
I prefer natural products (organic or close to that), but was always annoyed at the cost relative to the amount. I ended up finding "Everyone Lotion" which I am using as I type (citrus mint). It's not perfect as there are too many weird chemicals for my tastes, but it works well and I like the scents. Plus, the bottles are a good size (32 oz). I ordered some more on Amazon because it's more convenient.
I use Speick Natural Aktiv Hand- and Nail Balm. With aloe vera, argan and camellia oil, vitamin F and Speick extracts.
Everything either biological or fair trade.

I've been using Kiss My Face olive and aloe moisturizer and it is working very well for my dry hands as the season gets cooler.
