Sometimes, despite your best intentions, you end up with extremely dry, cracked hands—they’re no longer just flaky; fissures have formed, which can result in bleeding. When that happens, reach for trusty ingredients like shea butter and glycerin for a serious overnight treatment. Get your hands wet to give them that layer of water, pat them dry and then apply a hand cream for dry skin like La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Mains all over and slip on a pair of cotton gloves. In the morning, your hands will have had a good amount of time to soak up all the moisture and should look and feel much better. Lastly, consider a humidifier in your bedroom; it will add moisture to the air and help with your overnight treatment.
