My wife uses this stuff. She gets it at Wal-Mart. I've tried it when my hands get dry and it works.

Donna's dermatologist gave her some samples of Cetaphil moisturizer, and it works better than anything I've tried. https://www.cetaphil.com/Products/moisturizers.aspx
I've tried the creamy petroleum jelly also, not bad, but the Cetaphil works much better for me (but is expensive-so watch for sales!)
