Great tips Amy - thanks so very much.  I'll add that in the colder wether my biggest issue is dry hands.  they can get so chapped and even crack at the knuckles, not to mention the dryest cuticles this side of the Sahara!  

 

So I have started wearing gloves whenever possible while cleaning, doing dishes etc.  An added moisture boost is to use hand lotion then put the gloves on.  Creates a great moisturizing environment!  Its like summer all over again - inside the gloves.

All the best, sue
