I prefer my natural body oils. When I use lotion and then stop, it's almost like a delayed reaction that has just been accumulating. I've been focusing on better hand soaps, as that's my biggest issue (washing my hands after nearly every cigarette I smoke). I found one that worked pretty well, but while I was in Wyoming I didn't have it with me, so to appease my OCD I had to buy my previous soap once in Wyoming (TSA jacking my spesho soap?! No; my hands can handle the chaffe)... Anyway, the air was super dry compared with Dallas, but as I was out more I didn't use said soap as much.. but then the cold water didn't help... but at least every little crack that formed is going to go away in less than 2 days now that I have my soap back. They're all very shallow little cracks. It's like a hand puppet show of two people trying to kill each other with death by a thousand cuts.
Any advice? I mean, with the soap that worked decently the first time I now have an opportunity to try and reproduce the results, but if it doesn't work, do you have any recommendations?
Use hand lotion.
You need something that will moisture your skin and soap is for cleansing, not moisturing.
There are various soaps and cleansers that have oils in them (olive, coconut, etc oils) that help but its main duty is still cleansing.
You need lotion and that's all.
