    Two thoughts: 

    - I cannot stand greasy creams and the only product and I stand is
    Udder Cream (?), the stuff that comes in the white container with
    the black cow spots. It soaks in and isn't greasy. 

    - maybe a barrier cream would meet your needs. These are products
    that are for mechanics and the like, to keep oil from soaking into
    their skin. I recommend this to my students in PMC classes, as it
    keeps dry skin from drying out the PMC. 

    Another one I haven't tried yet, but have heard good things about is
    Hardworker's Hand Creme. You can buy it at 

    http://www.Lehmans.com 

    A very cool catalog you will want for many reasons.
