Dry Skin and Lotions

Paige over at Needlepoint Nation decided she would test various lotions for her dry hands. She's trying to find a fast-absorbing lotion she can use before stitching.   She has two clear favorites, but read the comments.  Some folks are allergic to lanolin which is in her favorite and some wonder if a lanolin-based lotion will stain silk which doesn't have lanolin in it already, unlike wool.

Kudos to Paige for experimenting.  Not everyone's skin is the same, so what works for her may not work for you, but at least will give us all ideas.   Her favorite is available at Walmart.
