My hubby has dry skin on some parts of his body, (arms,legs,thighs,back,neck,) And I only really only apply lotion on his body 2 times a week when I give him massages. I use Olay Quench body lotion on him when I give him massages, but should I apply lotion on him more often?
I know for sure he would NEVER apply lotion on him self, and I know I would not ever let him because I'm there lol but I need some advice of how many times I should be applying lotion on him, and what type of lotion. Thanks =)

First, lotion may not be enough, maybe he should start using moisturizing soap or at least soap that is not so strong it strips skin of moisture. Second, sometimes it is good to put lotion right after bathing, when skin is a little damp to lock in moisture. Third, maybe you can go for something richer than lotion like body butter or some sort of cream. If you continue using lotion, buy the ones for extremely dry skin. Neutrogena's Swiss Lotion (I forgot the exact name but it has Swiss in the name) is made especially for those with extremely dry skin, for example.

If you can, get him to exfoliate his skin first then put on some baby oil on him don't let him go in the sun after though! Really bad sunburn. Sometimes when your skin stays dry its also to do with hoe hydrated you are so drinking water helps also. If he is allergic to some skin creams use sorbelene lotion a dermatologist recommended it to me. Good luck and have fun

Check with your local doctor, as this dry skin could be a problem that needs special care.
You may well be doing all that you can, but isn't it better if you find out if this minor, nuiscance dry skin problem is only that??
