XTRME peeling hands
Well I received an unprecedented response to my “Xtrme Peeling Hands” request in my last email alerting you to my first Hong Kong blog that I thought I would publish them just in case anyone ever needs this advice again – thanks to those below.
Infact as soon as I put the call out the itching decreased almost immediately and now there are just small blisters on the fingers and thumbs. Before the call went out I actually was treating it with Jurlique Rose Hand Cream, which I bought here in Causeway Bay at a Jurlique store! After my purchase I indicated to the Shop Assistant that the product was from my hometown (feeling rather proud of the fact) – she was suitably unimpressed.
As our good friend Eric said later it would be like someone from Des Plaines, Illinois, the origin of MacDonalds, going up to a Maccas counter anywhere in the world and saying the same thing. “Who gives a…!”
Anyway here’s the treatments for your enjoyment.
Paw Paw cream is the best but sticky on the fingers :)
Georgie Davill
Drink plenty of water would be my advice, plus put some paw paw or similar on to the skin.
Karen Hadfield
Seek a competent medical practitioner at once.
Nick Fryer
Put some salt on your hands cover in olive oil and rub away )removes the dead skin), then run your hands under warm water and it will feel sensational!!! Keep putting olive oil on them to replenish the dry skin!!!!
Eliza Lovell
Steroid cream.
Christian Goldsworthy
Arnica or calendula cream rubbed in. Chinese herbs and/or acupuncture would be the local thing to do.
Ollie Black
L'oreal Hydra Energetic helped me with a nose peel.
Tim Grimsey
Paw paw cream if you can find it or something with a lot of vitamin E - and avoid ingesting anything acidic (eg citrus juice, tomatoes, chilli) until your hands clear up.
Mercedes Eyers-White
When my hands were burnt badly the most powerful moisturiser that the doctor could reccomend was to grab a vitamin E liquid capsule, prick it open with a sterile pin or something and squeeze its contents out. Powerful stuff. You get the vitamin capsules at any chemist really.
Cameron Goodall
Calendula cream is a natural product that I use sometimes when I get eczema/heat bumps on my hands – could be worth a shot?
Gemma Winter
Buy those hand gloves (usually from the body shop) and cover your hands with sorbelene cream and leave the gloves on overnight.....

Sid's suggestion sounds like a cure worse than the disease. No chilli? What do you need hands for if you can't eat chilli?
