If you work with your hands then no amount of hydration will solve this. You build up calluses and that’s what causes the rough spots and catches on the MF.
Not totally true. I worked with my hands for years and had pretty rough hands from it but I noticed my friend in an even rougher industry (HVAC) so I asked him wtf he was doing and within a couple weeks, my hands were on great shape.
The answer is using lotion AND preventative maintenance. If a callous starts to rip, smooth it out with an emery board. It’s otherwise not that rough if you losh up 2-3 times a day
Dry skin is mostly caused by not enough oils being on your skin, which normally prevent the water from escaping. You’ll have a hard time hydrating so much that that’s no problem at all.
But at the same time, the cheapest lotion will do the trick. In principle, you can even use sunflower oil or similar. The water isn’t picky from what oil it gets blocked…
Lotion is cheap, staying hydrated is cheaper

I think it’s fair to say I work with my hands, what with setting tile. I don’t let my hands get gross but lots of my coworkers do.
You might be able to handcuff them with a dry microfiber, but the cloth just slips off of my hands

That’s so wrong I can’t even. Drink more water!
No.
Fine.
