dry is the new ... not dry

[certainthings]

after a very long time complaining about dry hands, i finally splurged. i bought myself some crabtree & evelyn hand cream. it's so fancy. so expensive (like, I know there's more expensive but) and wow! what average hand cream! so excited. so so excited to keep using it... bah. i'm glad i got mine on sale for $16 because uhm, no. like, maybe if i didn't have to wash my hands 754 thousand times a day because of work and the bathroom usage it might work, maybe. i've mostly been using it at night before bed, and still. my hands are a desert.

what i like that is affordable are herbacin kamille and glysomed both can be found at wal mart.

I used my friends Curel Ultra Healing with Advanced Ceramide Therapy, every day all summer, it was sitting by her sink, and I was at her house nannying for their twins. I called her from the drug store last month like "what's that lotion sitting by your sink that I used everyday all summer? I completely miss it."

Can't recommend it enough, it's in an enormous pump bottle and it's thick and creamy but NOT greasy and I can feel it on my hands for HOURS after. LOVE IT

I second this one. Curel is awesome. I got a sample from my dermatologist and it is the best for dry skin. I still use Palmer's lotion though, because Curel is no fragrance and I like to smell like sugar cookies.

Thank you! I'm almost certain I've seen Curel around here, so maybe this weekend I'll go on a hunt for some.

Hours after, even after washing your hands?
