    My hands are so dry and living through a pandemic where you have to constantly wash them is not helping

      Try using a moisturizing soap like Dove. If you don't like any of the fragrances they have unscented Dove, that used to be my go-to for the dry winter months. I've used it all summer bc of the pandemic.

      Burt's Bees Almond Milk Hand Cream works wonders for cracked hand skin. So do the cortisone hand creams for eczema.

        Thanks for the tip. Until now I just ask for "1 cream please" at the pharmacy lol

      You can try wet wrapping for really intense moisture. You can find a tutorial online but basically you put on a thick layer of lotion, wet and then squeeze out a cotton glove (i just use a sock and keep my hands in fists so it fits), and then put plastic wrap or a rubber glove on top and go to bed like that.

      This helps my severe eczema in the winter so it should work :)
