 :thankyou: You can mention the products but you can't post a direct link to buy them. I've got the hemp one. It is really good especially using it overnight with cotton gloves.

Certainly for those sensitive to lanolin any products containing it should be avoided. 

Mine are so sore but a good friend gave me Crabtree and Evelyn for my birthday in December  ;) not the whole Company but small tubes suitable for the camper van.

I'll buy it off you ......... when the Royal Mail is up and running again ;-)

This C&E needs a tiny bit, it spreads beautifully ....... trouble is the Staff who usually give me the massage are self isolating  >:(  :D [I was due for a pedicure this week  :-\]

Hello ladies.

I've actually been using lanolin cream without a problem fortunately. I bought it from Boots and it's designed for nursing mothers to use. It's very sticky but so far so good.

By the way there is no problem with the Royal Mail though the service is understandably under strain.

Take care ladies.

The Royal Mail has threatened to advise their workers to go off if they aren't considered the 5th emergency service ..... and they have withdrawn their next day signed for service.

My hands are improving ;-)

Ladies!

My hands feel as dry as elephants knees! I do have a recommendation for you all though - a jar of  O'Keefe's Working Hands. Largely unscented and very soothing. It's the only hand cream I am able to wear and my cat still lets me cuddle him!!

I have dry skin at the best of time but with all the constant washing they have cracked and some of the cuts are quite deep and really painful. Under normal circumstances, the best stuff I use (and ive tried loads of things) is atrixo, old fashioned but seems to sink in really well. Obviously not quite enough at the moment though.
