A little old lady I cared for would wear white gloves over her hands at night after she coated them with olive oil.

She had pretty hands, I used this on my feet before, too. I think my feet get drier than my hands, oddly enough. Not like I use them for washing dishes. I might get funny looks if I put my toes in the sink!

Marye,

Ever tired Aquaphor, expensive, but works every time. It’s really just a high grade of petroleum jelly. It’s gentle enough to use on little ones for chapped cheeks. I coat the backs of my hands at night and they are wonderful the next morning. I only have to do this about twice a week.
