With all of the products that I use on a daily basis from diesel to gasoline to dirt mud and grime, it really affects my hands so I keep Heavy Handed in the door of my truck so that as soon as I have my hands clean, I can apply the cream to my hands and keep my calluses, while still not having my eczema flareup on the palms of my hands. My wife used to hate the way my hands felt against certain fabrics as well as her skin, but now no complaints. I never thought a hand cream could actually make my marriage better but here we are.
