hand cream, yes, again

It seems like every winter Clayart discusses handcream, so I thought I'd let
you know about one that I tried that's really worked for me. It's called Stop
Signs and it's by Clinique. Yes, you have to buy it in the cosmetics section
of your local department store, sorry guys, and it's a little pricey - I
think I paid $15.00 for a 2.5 fl. oz./75 ml. tube. But this is the only thing
that has ever worked for me - okay, so I never tried Janet's carrot
treatment. It's really great not having dry, cracked and itchy skin, and I
saw results after only one week. Plus, my hands look ten years younger -
maybe I should try it all over!

The usual disclaimers apply. I'm not associated with Clinique in any way. I
don't use any of their other products, especially since I prefer my own mud
treatments to theirs.

Yes, I found a good one too - it's called "Working Hands Creme." I think
it's new on the market, the jar indicates it's a "guaranteed pharmacist
formula for hands and feet that crack and split." The beauty of it is that
it isn't greasy feeling - kinda weird feeling, but not greasy.

It works for me. I get it at my local drug store, think it costs about $8.50
for 4 oz. With magnifying glass in hand, I see that this stuff is
manufactured by "Working Hands Creme, Inc." in Joseph, Oregon. Might not
have a very wide distribution . . .

Lee in Seattle, handbuilder, just now learning to throw, who would like to
thank whomever posted (wish I hadn't hit the delete key so fast) about
watching the inside of the pot while throwing. Holybejeezus, that sure does
make a difference!

Ouch... that's pricy. I have tried countless creams and finely stumbled
over the winner, udderly sMOOth Udder Cream, which you can check out at
http://www.uddercream.com/

It's under $5 the 10 oz tub with the pump and it really does miracles.

Cheers,

Fabienne
