FYI some moisturizers have alcohol in them, I think to help carry their scent? If you react to alcohol, avoid anything with an "-ol" in their ingredient lists. I have some Burt's Bees hand creams and beeswax stuff which don't have any alcohol in them, and I also like Aveeno. I don't have your particular reaction, but I can get painful red cracked skin just from a single application of a moisturizer with alcohol in it.
When I use alcohol hand sanitizer I try to apply it only to my palms, and I've never had a problem with it there, it's only the backs of my hands that react to alcohol moisturizers.
