Guest guest Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 My son, his poor hands are so dang dry! They are literally red on the back of his hands. I purchased some natural shea butter and jojoba oil and after lotioning up his hands at night I have him wear latex free and powder free gloves, with the tips cut off, to help it absorb but by mid-day at school it does the same. I was thinking of getting Emu oil/lotion for his hands and trying that but ug 1 oz. is $10 bucks! I even tried burt bee's hand salve and that isn't working either! So I wanted to ask to see if you guys have any suggestions. He is no longer using the soap at school which is what I suspected was the initial culprit and he does no use sanitizers. Talked to the school today when they called me concerned and I told them what I was currently doing and mentioned that I would be sending my own soap and lotion to school for him (obvious the as natural as you can get products). Any suggestions would be great. I'm getting frustrated and have turned to those who can help being YOU! Help! and Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 For dry hands my grandmother used to swear by Cornhuskers lotion. All drugstores used to carry it. It might be worth a try.BetsyLady Rayn <tash_75_99 Sent: Wed, January 13, 2010 10:17:20 AM Chapped, Redened, Owie Skin My son, his poor hands are so dang dry!

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Have you thought about the Miracle Two products,? They carry a lotion that works wonders for any skin type.
