I have had dry skin problems since I was a kid, particularly on my hands and during the winter. As an adult, it only got slightly better. I also wash my hands frequently which doesn't help. I tried different kinds of lotions which only provided temporary results. After a day or two, my hands would start to crack and turn white again. Then I tried this stuff, Nubian Heritage Coconut Papaya Shea Butter.

I first started using it a couple months ago. I applied it twice in one week and left it one for a few hours, before having to wash it off since it is pretty greasy. I only used it on my hands those two times that I can remember, and the change was pretty remarkable. Only until last week (about 2 months later) did I notice that my hands started looking a little dry and cracked, but not as bad as they had been before. Even then, by the next day w/o applying any lotion they were back to normal looking.
On their site they advertise:
And it appears they are telling the truth. Not sure how exactly (or what ingredient), but it appears it has actually heal my skin instead of just temporarily alleviating the problem. Here are the ingredients:
Before that, I was using coconut lotion that had vitamin e in it. So maybe the big thing is the shea butter with coconut oil and vitamin e together?
