Is there a cream out there somewhere that can be used on really dry and sore fingers from stitching, that is safe to use while working on a piece.

I've heard there is something called 'udderly smooth' that should do the trick. Many farmers use it.

I've been using Glaxol Base moisturizing cream for years. It's great and no residue on stitching either. :)

Help is only a question away !

I've used "O'Keeffe's Working Hands" for *years* but decided to try something new recently and found "Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula with Vitamin E." They have it in both a small plastic tub and in a pump bottle as a lotion. It even smells like chocolate! O'Keeffe's can be a little sticky at first sometimes, while Palmer's is initially a little oily. I've also asked other stitchers about his, and they've recommended Queen Helene's (pretty good, but I'm not a fan of how it smells), Neutrogena Norweigan Formula Hand Cream, Cerave, and Curel. I haven't yet tried the last 3, but I've heard they're also pretty good. Stay away from "Crafty Hand Cream" though. When I used it, it was almost like using water. It really didn't do me much good at all.
