It works pretty well. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Bath-Works-Glycolic-Cracked-Treatment/dp/B007SFA9J2/ref=sr_1_1?s=beauty&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1389375988&#038;sr=1-1&#038;keywords=true+blue+spa+glycolic" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Bath-Works-Glycolic-Cracked-Treatment/dp/B007SFA9J2/ref=sr_1_1?s=beauty&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1389375988&#038;sr=1-1&#038;keywords=true+blue+spa+glycolic</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-hands-ever-crack-and-bleed-because-theyre-so-dry#post-1335134 Fri, 10 Jan 2014 10:41:08 +0000 snowjewelz 1335134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, skin around my nails crack!

This year's dry hands w a newborn rivals when I was a floor nurse.

A lot of hand creams that seem gentle burn my skin too. I'm a teacher so I can't really cut back on handwashing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-hands-ever-crack-and-bleed-because-theyre-so-dry#post-1334545 Fri, 10 Jan 2014 07:36:37 +0000 looch 1334545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, and it required a prescrption to clear it up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-hands-ever-crack-and-bleed-because-theyre-so-dry#post-1334481 Fri, 10 Jan 2014 06:36:26 +0000 yin 1334481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes :( My hands overall aren't bad. It's just my ring finger that is dry and cracked. I slather lotion on it when I remember, but it's so hard to keep up with. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-hands-ever-crack-and-bleed-because-theyre-so-dry#post-1334473 Fri, 10 Jan 2014 06:28:42 +0000 mrs. bird 1334473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: my heels, too! I got a new foot file thing for Christmas (I requested it), it's amazing &amp; if I keep removing dry/calloused skin, they don't seem to crack. </p> <p>Yes! But I've gotten better about putting cream on them regularly before it's bad &amp; it seems to have helped. Love l'occitane hand cream, but it's crazy $$ at the rate I go through it, so I use the body shop hemp hand protector which is also nice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-hands-ever-crack-and-bleed-because-theyre-so-dry#post-1334417 Fri, 10 Jan 2014 05:10:21 +0000 Purpledaisy 1334417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine don't but DH's do.
