[AtLast]

Actually, I have a serious question to ask. Even though I can mess up my hands with all the yard work and gardening, I do, I like my nails to look good when I go out, etc. And I don't want my hands to have rough skin, which is usually the case. Can't possibly feel good to hold hands with me.

What does work well to keep nails and hands from being rough? To be honest, I buy whatever lotion is on sale most of the time and have no idea what ingredients really do help to soften hands. Also, would it make a difference to get manicures? I have never had a manicure in my life. My Mom and sisters never did either, or my Dad and brother. Just wasn't part of my household.
