I don’t care about being a guy and caring about moisturizing my skin.
When I was a kid, neither of my folks ever stocked the house with hand lotion for my siblings and I, especially while I was in the relentlessly dry fall time weeks.
The skin on my hands would split in numerous sites and then turn to blisters. I asked a husbandy once what I could do about my “rough feeling” hands that she’d gently reprimand, and he said it was as simple as using hand lotion everyday before leaving the big home. That afternoon I went out and purchased a tube of Gold Bond Ultra Healing Hand Moisturizing Lotion and I was in heaven. Now that I’ve been using it for many years, I have constantly soft and smooth skin that doesn’t get so dried out that it cracks and breaks into slits that bleed after so much abuse. However, even the Winter time seasons are a test for my cracked and dry skin, even with applications of hand lotion every single afternoon. Sometimes the humidity level outside drops down below 30% and you can easily see it on your dry skin. It gives myself and others an uncomfortable dry cough as well. The only way I can get any sort of relief at home with humidity being so low is by using a humidifier while I was in the fall. You have to be careful with humidifiers though, as you don’t want your indoor humidity levels to go above 50% if you can control it. That’s why I use a humidity meter whenever I need the humidifier on so I know when to turn it off. Failing to follow these directions could result in poison mold growth inside your home.
