Hey Jack, you might want to use a different product on your face. They make tons of moisturizers for men's faces. Try something from the Aramis Lab Series line.
Olive oil works well as a pre-shaving treatment. Anthony Logistic's pre-shave oil uses a combination of oils, including olive oil. But the real deal is cheaper, and you don't need extra virgin.
Try a bottle of glycerin - main ingredient in cornhuskers. Should be easy enough to find at drugstores, I get mine from Walgreens for about 3 bucks.
A few drops of water and glycerin will not only be a non greasy solution once absorbed, it leaves a somewhat tacky film that enables me to deal cards,open plastic bags at the grocery store, handle cash, etc.
Do not try the glycerin and rosewater solution often sold-(egad).
I used to work in a tire factory where, due to the nature of the manufacturing, everybody had extremely dry and cracked hands at the end of a shift. Cornhuskers and the Neutrogena stuff seemed to be the most popular and effective...
I use on occasion Curel too. However, I must comment on the Bath and Bodyworks line of lotions. The scent that my wife uses is called "Honeysuckle" and also "Green Tea and Ginger", OMG do these smell great on a lady. I happily go to B&BW and buy on average around $100 a visit. Try it on your significant other
Thanks all. I bought some of the Neutrogena Norwegian stuff and it's much better. I'm going to try some of your other suggestions too just for fun. At least hand lotion is a cheap "hobby", unlike Home Theater...
