Udder cream.
I'm serious. I don't know if it's available over there, but here in the States you can buy udder cream, also called bag balm, at WalMart and drug stores. It's the same stuff rubbed on cows' udders to relieve the chafing from milking.
Since I was a kid my hands, and particularly my fingers, would crack open and bleed during the cold, dry winter months. I used several different kinds of lotions without satisfactory results. But I found that if I put the udder cream on my hands right before I go to bed, the cracking stops and my hands are much better.
If you have a really severe case, you can also buy thin, disposable cotton gloves that you put on your hands after you coat them heavily with udder cream. The gloves allow you to really coat your hands without rubbing the stuff off (where it does you no good) and all over yourself and your bed in your sleep.
If you can't find udder cream or bag balm at a drug store somewhere, you might be able to find it at a feed and seed store out in the country if you live near any small beef farmers. It will be packaged slightly differently, but it's the same goop.
