i hate lotion, i hate lotion, i hate lotion, but I LOVE CORN HUSKERS lotion! I am the last person you will see put on lotion because of the geasy feeling hand, but I dont hesitate to put this stuff on anytime. I can practically bathe in the stuff because it is such a great product.

If you have tattoos, Corn Huskers is a must have...

I'd like to see it packaged in a squeeze tube or pump one of these days...

this stuff is awesome for handjobs!!!!!!!

I remember using this product as a kid in the 60's. When my 2 of my children began experiencing extremely dry, cracked hands in the winter,I tried all types of lotions, nothing worked well. Finally, the light bulb went off and I purchased Cornhuskers a couple of years ago. It heals instantly and my kids love it. Earlier this season, I went to replenish our stock and could not locate it at Walmart or Walgreens. That's why I am online. I have to order some quick. Being almost 50, I think I am going to try it as a face lotion as soon as my order comes in. I was even thinking about using it as a shaving lotion. Anyway it is a miracle lotion.

I used corn huskers as a child. I was allergic to grass, detergent and other chemicals and my doctor advised me to use it. I had great results. I now have cracked skin on my feet and recently bought a bottle and it works well. I don't slip out of my shoes when walking and my skin doesn't feel clogged. I love it!

If you're a bowler that needs relief from the annoying callouses that invariably dry up and crack during your season, this product is absolute MONEY. It's completely healed an ENORMOUS callous on my ring finger that split ope over a month ago. Since then, I've had hardly ANY pain and ZERO bleeding that had been associated with the site in weeks past.

Its great for sex too! longlasting slick lubricant

With summer coming around this stuff really works well on sunburned skin! I have used this on my shoulders (the part that gets the worst!!) and my skin has never peeled!! If you want to keep that summer tan without peeling skin use this on your sunburns!!

As a person who has tried myriad lotions for dry skin, I love Corn Huskers. I bought a pretty ceramic pump dispenser for my office desk, filled it with Corn Huskers, and I use it all the time. It works like nothing else on the market. It soothes, it softens, and it heals. No awful smell, just a clean scent, and it absorbs into skin so quickly that I can be back typing or using my hands right away. I highly recommend this tried and true product.

Michigan and Ohio winters are wicked. All the women in my family have always had trouble with dry skin, espeically their hands and even more so in the winter. Cracking and peeling have always been a very painful problem. My mother went from one doctor to another and did most of the same things that some of the other commenters have mentioned, buying everything suggested over the counter, and had dozens of prescriptions. Being a banker and handling money all day was excruciating. THen a co-worker gave her a bottle of Corn Huskers! As a teenager, I remember there was always a bottle of Corn Huskers Lotion on the bathroom counter. Then, of course, I grew up and "knew better". I'm sure I could find something better than my mothers antiquated, old fashioned lotion. So for years, I forgot about the Corn Huskers Lotion and moved on to dozens of other over the counter lotions. Then, like mom, a co-worker gave me a bottle. And now, once again, a bottle of Corn Huskers Lotion resides on my bathroom counter, and another bottle sits on my desk at work. Believe me, the old remedies are sometimes the best!

In my office, the heated air during the winter is so dry, it just sucks all the moisture out of my hands and arms. Corn Huskers is the best stuff I've found for fast relief and protection for the rest of the day.

I think that this is one of the best products that you can find for instant and long term relief for dry skin. Car Wax and concrete dry and crack my skin and this products beging the recovery process instantly.

The best hand lotion I have ever tried. I find that it moisturizes my hands, helps heal chapped skin, and does it without making my skin oily or perfumy.

As a side note, it helps improve my bowling by improving my grip on the ball, all while reducing blisters.

I have had a problem with dry, cracking spots on my hands for several years. I have been to a few doctors, even dermatologists about it, only to be given the generic diagnosis of eczema. They wrote prescriptions for the latest and the greatest lotions and creams, even a tape with medicine in it. My fingers split and bleed to the point of using 5-6 bandaids at a time. It is confining, awkward and embarassing. At night I would slather up my hands with medications, sometimes in addition to Vaseline, and wear gloves to bed. Meanwhile, my husband had a bottle of Corn Huskers Lotion in the medicine cabinet he was using for much less bothersome cracks on his hands. I used it a couple of weeks ago, in the frustration of all other failures. It not only heals my skin, it takes away the stinging. I wish I had tried it sooner. I could have saved myself years of discomfort.

This product was originally made for Iowa Corn Huskers whose jobs made their hands dry in decades ago. If it's been around this long it must be work... right? I STRONGLY recommend this product for men. No strong perfume-like fragrance and it moisturizes extremeley well. I have always had a horrible problem with dry skin. I used many regular lotions and yes they did moisturize... but the moisture seems to wash away whenever I wet my hands. This is the only product I have ever tried that retains the moisture on my hands permanently.

carenab is clueless, sorry! I have been an industrial machine mechanic for over 25 years. During the height of my carrer in that field, my hands were exposed to the worst environments one could imagine. Solvents, parts cleaners, acids, paint thinners including Acetone, laquer thinner, and all the other 'death-in-a-can' chemicals. Of course, the constant use of industrial-strength degreasers, contributed greatly to my hands destruction. Dried to the point of all skin layers cracked and open to daily bleeding, I desperately sought relief! Doctors suggested I ask pharmacists for what would work. Pharmacists were clueless, suggesting all the major-brand lotions like Kerry, Lubriderm, Dermatology Formula this and that. I religeously tried them all, (and gave them a chance to work, unlike 'carenab'). They were all useless! Finally, I talked with an older experienced machinist, who recommended Corn Huskers. True, it does not have a flowery smell. True, it feels wierd when you first rub it on. Once dry though, and your hands will respond almost instantly with healing. Best method I found for badly damaged skin: Apply just before bedtime, 3 nights in a row. You will not see anything else work as well as Corn Huskers Lotion! This stuff saved my skin, literally! I noticed that most of the 'fancy' flowery-designer creams get high reviews on this site. Well, I guess some people consider dusty skin as a disaster. Marketing is a powerful thing... If you have seriously damaged skin, or want to prevent damage, just try what I suggested. You'll be convinced it works!

This is crap. It doesn't really moisturize that well and it leaves a yucky film on my skin.
