For those who have chronic/recurrent nosebleeds in winter, a bad of vaseline on the inside of the nose while you sleep can work wonders, too.

One other great product to use for dry cracked feet and hands is
Bag Balm. I know it sounds udderly ridiculous, but it works. Slather a good amount over your hands or feet, then wear either socks or gloves while you sleep, and you'll find it works just as well as Vaseline.
I can attest to Vaseline to working on culling nosebleeds. Especially during the winter, my snot locker gets drier than the Mohave in summer. As Doc said above, placing a bad of Vaseline inside my nose, works wonders.
