That's how my chronic eczema started...continually washing hands because of looking after young kids.
The skin specialist I saw said it's known as "mother's hands" and is a kind of allergy/hyper sensitivity to water.
Hopefully yours is just dry skin 'cos it makes guitar playing a right pain mainly because of the cuts but also because you have to have ointment on your finger tips most of the time.
And don't use chapstick use proper eczema cream like Epaderm.
