Many options: There are a variety of skin products specifically made for the penis. This link has the top 10 of 2020. https://www.qteros.com/penis-moisturizer/. If the cost is too high to have a specialized cream, try using coconut oil or pure olive oil. Both of these have bacteriostatic properties and are soothing to the skin
