My skin gets dry really easily- mostly on my hands and feet. My hands are pretty set though, if i put lotion on my hands maybe twice a day. But my feet get dry so much quicker. When I put lotion on my feet, then walk around for not even five minutes, the lotion wears away. They're fine when I'm wearing shoes and socks, but i don't like to wear them all day. Is there any lotions or anything that won't wear off so quickly? I'm using melaluca lotion right now.(I'm not sure if i spelled that right) It's the best I've used so far.

You can help your feet feel less dry by using a dry foot file to get the dry skin off the heels and bottoms of your feet. After you've taken a shower or soaked your feet for a few minutes, apply the lotion you like (best kind contains shea butter) on your feet while they're still damp.
A great way to soften your feet is to massage them with petroleum jelly (Vaseline) at night, then wear socks to bed to seal in the moisture.

you can use lotion or baby oil and you can pat your skin dry so then there is still some water on your skin which can keep your skin from getting dry

I like almond oil best.....keeps mine nice and soft. It rubs in nicely and the massage you give yourself is great!
