I'm not a guy, but I still think Burt's Bees hand balm smells masculine. It has rosemary, olive oil, eucalyptus, etc. But it tends to have more of a greasy feel than, say, Lubriderm, due to its more natural oils. I think this link is what I used sometimes on my hands before gardening. It's out of stock though. But here you are anyway.

The same website has lots of other moisturizers too, but I can't vouch for how "manly" they are.

Here's one that seems to be pretty popular. Read the reviews and you'll see.

People do complain it just smells "waxy" but maybe guys think that that smells good?

Because it doesn't really smell feminine or something? Just wondering.

Cornhusker's Lotion is a good one!

How about bag balm?

I do like men smelling like Old Spice(anything aftershave, lotion, soaps)........hmmmmmmmmmm!

Can not get hubby to wear one.

For bald guys, a good handful of Goop and a shower cap to wear to bed might solve the problem! Coming out like a REAL mechanic!

When I used to irrigate, as a kid, in that cold, windy Colorado air, I used Corn Husker's Lotion on my hands....Nothing like having the ends of your fingers split wide open.

I take hubby shopping and make HIM pick something he likes the smell of. He kinda likes the cucumber/melon type smell, but the oatmeal kind he likes too (Aveeno and knock-offs). He only puts it on when he feels his skin needs it, but hey, that's what counts right?

I have to use Vaseline cream lotion, basically it's cream-afied petroleum jelly, but it soaks in better than straight Vaseline. It's the only thing that I've found will get my hands repaired after washing dishes at work. It says unscented, but I say it has a nice scent. I can smell it and it smells nice. Straight Vaseline is unscented, but the cream does have a scent no matter what the bottle says. That stuff Ms.FuzzyButts said from the paint department might be just my thing though. I'll hafta check it out.

I have to use it in the winter or my hands will crack and bleed.

My DH won't touch any lotion. My adult sons use any kind sitting on the counter and they lather it on. Guess it's all in how you were raised.....??? (I always have Vaseline Instensive Care sitting on the counter).

Eucerin. One of the best but a bit pricey....remember you get what you pay for.

My hands and elbows would start to bleed if I don't use it. I'll take what I can get and really don't care.
