I'd go back to Bag Balm, put it on at night and wear cotton gloves so you don't get the bed sticky. ( I used to put it on at the end of work when I was plastering, and then drive home. I didn't have gloves and the steering wheel got pretty awful.)

I have heard good things about superglue, and I have also used NuSkin and something to bridge the gap, like pellon tape, or in a pinch, Kleenex. Then I keep Curel next to the bed, as I sometimes wake up with my hands so dry they burn...
