Cheap lotion recommendations?

My hands get really dry all the time and a few months ago, I found a solution. Every night before I go to bed I would slather my hands in 1% hydrocortisone cream, and then I would put on gloves and go to bed and my hands don’t itch after I do this. I got a huge tub of hydrocortisone cream for like 15 bucks and it’s been lasting me months so it’s great. But I just learned that apparently using medicated cream all the time is not good for you. The only other lotion that seems to actually help my skin is gold bond eczema relief and that’s nonmedicated so I think I could use it all the time but it’s really expensive. So my question is, does anyone have suggestions for cheaper lotions that are very similar to gold bond or is it fine to just keep using the hydrogen peroxide cream?
