Dear Farmgirls,

My husband gets really dry cracked hands from working in an auction house around lots of dusty old things that he has to pull out of boxes and move around and from pulling weeds at home. We were thinking corn huskers lotion might work. I also get really dry, cracked heels from wearing flip-flops way too much. Do any of you have any advise for us? Do you think corn huskers lotion would work best for both if our situations?

Thanks in advance!

I personally love that lotion, though it can be a bit greasy at first.

When my heels get like that I use Shea Butter and socks at night. It takes a few night but it works.

I make a wonderful WHIPPED Shea Butter that is lightly scented with almond or unscented. It also contains Vitamin E. My whipped shea butter is not greasy ( I add cornstarch to mine.)

It works very well on rough elbows, knees and heels!

Melody, I would love to try your shea butter out! Do you sell it somewhere local? I live in Marinette.
