Can anyone suggest a good hand cream for wrinkles and dryness?

I'm not a professional. I agree with everything maria said...but, when i apply my retinol to my face at night, I also apply some to the backs of my hands to discourage wrinkles. Along with intensive moisturizers.

Thank you so much. I thought of each step of my routine, both morning and evening, to rub what ever step I am on and rub it on the back of my hands. Makes it easier .
I'd split the task into 3:
Strengthen the skin barrier and moisturize
For this, the main part is minimizing the damage from hand washing and household work. A good idea is to use a gentle baby wash as hand wash wherever possible instead of traditional hand washes and soaps.
Then it's about using a good emollient moistruizer, for example, smth like this: https://whatsinmyjar.com/product/palmers-cocoa-butter-intensive-relief-hand-cream
Prevent further sun damage (causes wrinkles): sunscreen on the back of the hands during day time / when going outside, for example https://whatsinmyjar.com/product/la-roche-posay-anthelios-lotion-spf-60-body-sunscreen
Repair existing photo damage. For that, you could consider using an affordable retinoid serum at night, and following up with a moisturizer. A retinol option: https://whatsinmyjar.com/product/the-ordinary-retinol-1-in-squalane
