Apt water+cold air= discomfort.

[spacebabie]

The water in our apartment has got a lot of extra minerals,leaves spots on the dishes and dries out the skin on my hands since I wash them the most.

That and the dry cold air is really making them uncomfortable. The back of my right han is dry and cracking. I'd try to slough off the skin but the cracks are pink and I know the skin underneath is raw. It burned when I put on lotion.

Any good kind of healing hand lotion?

Also, aside from hand lotion, I suggest washing the dishes with Dove, instead of...whatever you're using. It's easier on your hands and has healing properties.

...oh, and get some gloves so it doesn't happen again. ^^

I don't have a problem with dry skin, so I dunno about the lotion...but Momma's got it fairly bad and manages to keep it all nice, so I'll ask her what she uses and get back to ya.
