Dry hands suck, what can I do?

I work at a LFS and have my hands in tanks all day long, plus my 2 tanks at home.
I hate dry hands and was wondering if anyone knows of some kind of lotion like product that I can use at night that would be safe to use after washing my hands to mess with the tanks and to be able to do magic tricks with a normal pack of cards that calls for normal hands. Please help
 
I struggle with dry hands, too. I work in surgery wearing gloves all day, and washing constantly, then coming home to my tank! I've found Vaseline's Cocoa Butter cream to be very rich and soothing, as well as a cream called Cerave. Plus, there's always Aquaphor ointment. Just put some on at night and wake up to smooth hands....and grease stained sheets...so be prepared! Lol!
 
unscented original formula Curel lotion. Almost entirely pure glycerin and water. Absorbs fast and works great.
 
I use Neutrogena, unscented. Rinse with plain water if I need to touch tankwater. Do not use soap, they will strip your skin of it's natural oil.
 
All natural body butter. Safest for your reef friends and most natural for your hands. After it soaks in it feels much better than any lotion.
 
use a shoulder length reef glove. Keeps your tank cleaner and your skin safer. You can also reduce your exposure by getting a good tool. Check out these at Foster and Smith.
