You could try Neutrogena Norwegian Formula hand lotion or Gold Bond Medicated with Aloe. I've found both work well for me and even better if I put tons on a night and sleep with it on. It's been recommended to me to put a sock or mitten on and it will create more heat that allows the lotions to work better. While I get that, and agree, every time I've tried that, by morning the socks/gloves/mittens have come off and I have to spend a few minutes locating them in the sheets, under the bed, etc. I do, however, notice the difference when I at least try to do that.
