Dried, chapped winter hands?

[braided-rug]

My husband could relate to the wet gloves, he thought maybe the only gloves that wouldn't get wet are diving gloves!! I did think of a product that you put on shoes to keep the snow from making them wet. It is called Sno-seal, made in Orangeburg, SC by Atsko Inc. We checked the container and it is suitable for gloves.

My husband used Sno-seal last snow season here and he said it worked well,

you can see the word glove on the last line of the package.

They also make a protective cream you could use when your hands are better.

Great information BR! You are so thoughtful to add the links for info with your suggestions, makes it easy for me to check it out. That Sno-Seal sounded like a good product to give a try!
Thanks again!

Ok this is gross but it works ;D I slather my hands with chortening (Crisco) put my hands in plastci bread bags, put thick socks over them. I wear these to sleep twice a week in the winter once in the summer! I do it with my feet now too!
Just remember to go potty before you put this stuff on, it's really hard to walk ;D ;D

In the morning just make sure to wash it off really well using a mild bar soap, I use Ivory. Then dry well and apply a non greasey lotion.

wow Ellise, now there's a medical solution!
Don't slip with that stuff on your tootsies!!

Bag Balm - used for cow udders. We used to use it in the nursing home for sore bottoms. It works great!

I got this wonderful gift in the mail, a little hug in my mail box from Lynn! She sent me this hand cream made with goat's milk, very nice soft scent. I've been using it for a few weeks now and it has been a help...just wanted to update the cracked hands story! This winter weather sure doesn't help hands to stay soft and supple!

Thanks Tammie.
