It is that time of the year when my hands and fingers start to dry up and crack meaning lots of lovely hacks! What do you guys use as prevention or what hand cream if any is recommended?

E45 is a good moisturizer. I had noticed my fingers are quite rough but that might be to do with the washing up.

Someone recommended something called Norwegian Formula to me a few years ago, I think Neutrogena make it, works really well if you start using it before your hands get too bad.

Don't wish to be negative, but it will be 'too expensive', and would you entrust managers to make sure that it was always available?

Nappy cream. Heals and soothes in one. So bepanthen or sudocrem.

Use Neutrogena for that exact problem and it has worked wonders for me over the last couple of winters. Think most things mentioned above would also work. The trick is to apply the stuff before going out in the morning. If you wait until after your hands get cold / wet then it is too late. Also reapply whenever you wash your hands.
