How to improve a very dry skin?

Question

I've had dry skin since I can remember, but it has become dryer in the last few years. (I'm 27 now) I need to put body lotion constantly to avoid that ugly and flaky look on my skin. I would like to know what kind of soap, body wash, body lotion, and/or home treatment I can do to improve my very dry skin. Thank U!!!! (n_n)

Answer 1

Oooo!! i'm an expert on this. first of all you need to start rubbing baby oil all over your body before you get out of the shower. then pat yourself off dry with a towel. Don't use cheap lotion, use like Palmers cocoa butter or vaseline Intensive care hydrating lotions. I get my soap imported from Fiji not sure if you want to do the same but there soap is pure not all perfume processed. Or look for coconut and milk soaps. You start out doing this and i guarantee it will work. So using Baby Oil before you dry off and using one of the lotions i mentioned and you'll be set to go and do it religiously. :)

Good luck. :)

I have a great thing for you. Arbonne makes a body serum and body lotion for very dry skin. A friend of mine had super dry feet with big cracks in them, the skin around the cracks softened up in just a few applications, and after awhile the cracks got better also. I could even get some samples of this stuff for you to try if your interested.

When I have dry skin problems, I use Aveeno body wash, any type is good but the best is the one for dry, itchy skin, I think it has a blue label. Then use Aveeno lotion all over your body and I think you should see a difference.
Good luck!
