Dry Hands

I've searched around and couldn't find anything on this. I recently moved to a very dry area and my hands are very dry now so it's very hard for me to do anything that requires my hands to be "grippy" such as card productions and the invisible deck. What are some hand creams/lotions that will moisturize my hands and not ruin my cards?
 
Hello,
I live in Pennsylvania Which is not a dry area but I work at a local grocery store as a box boy. Between the cardboard and dust by the end of the day my hands are dry and cracked. The lotion I use is Vaseline men extra strength. I wait a little before dealing with cards but this stuff works great when it come to restoring hand moisture. You should be able to find this in a local super market.

Dan and Dave have some stuff on their site I'm pretty sure and a local magic shop of mine sells this stuff called Golden Touch lotion and the word on the street is that it works like a charm and its fairly cheap.
 
Hey! you can purchase this stuff at walmart or any mega store. Its super cheap and dosent affect the cards in a bad way!
