I'm glad things are so good that you feel your husband would agree to a new ring set, even though it wouldn't solve your skin problem. I also get dry hands in winter. Is that your problem, too, or is it year round? Have you tried Shea butter for your hands? That's what I plan to try next.

We haven't agreed to what set yet, the one I really like is a bit pricey for our budget, it's a little over 500. But we are trying to compromise lol. It's all year long, I have Dyshidrotic Dermatitis. I'll have to try shea butter, Thanks for the idea :)
