There were a lot of suggestions on the "Nail Me" thread - all about manicures. Some of note were to use polysporin if the skin is actually cracked, and to use the cream meant for cow's udders (which is what desdansmoncoeur was referring to by "bag balm" I think). Your best price for that would be at a feed store. The other thing that Snowy mentioned for nail and cuticle health was to take vitamin E gel caps, open them and spread it over the nails and cuticles. I wonder if that would help boost your skin health? (after the cracks are healed, of course)
My contribution is a hand cream called "Glysomed" - a German product if you can find it. Thick, absorbs well and not greasy. The best hand cream I've ever had.
Good luck! Cracked skin is SO uncomfortable!
