There is the aveno with oatmeal. It's good...alittle costly.
-
Coconut oil does it for me. :)
-
Curel lotion works great for dry skin. :thumbsup:
-
cocoa butter is great for me!! i swear by the stuff!! its also great to keep from scarring from sun burns and such!!!
-
Arbonne Hydrating Body Lotion and Reactivating Body Serum is wonderful for dry skin. It makes the skin so soft and supple, it is a bit pricey but well worth the money. :)
-
The best lotion i have used is St. Ives twenty-four hour restoration. It sure helps me through the winter months however I do apply it two times a day. Morning and night.
-
Coconut oil is good for dry skin and I use that most of the time, also I use St. Ives, and Vaseline cocoa butter
-
The cold weaqther always makes my skin dry. I use Udderly Smooth on my dry skin. It really helps.
-
I use Vaseline intensive care with Aloe Vera. It does a good job on my dry skin and for my son I still use Johnson and Johnsons cocoa butter. :)
-
I started using Cerave in April and I really like it. You don't have to use a lot and it spreads really well.
-
Ithink cocoa butter works great for dry skin and it is relatively inexpensive too.
-
I use Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion. It really good for me. And you can buy it at Costco.
-
Well I think the best lotion to use is aveno lotion. Aveno works for my dry flaky skin and it doesn't irritate sensitive skin either.
-

cetaphil is good,
-
I like lubriderm and vaseline intensive care. Sometime I have to put just a little bit of the actual vaseline jelly on my hands b/c they get so dry and nothing else works for me.
-
keri lotion
-
lubriderm intense skin repair is good.
-
I use the aveeno with oatmeal and it is very good but it is pricey when I don't have the money I will but vaseline with aloe vera and that works as well good luck trying out the products I hope you find the one for you.
-
I just use the cheap walmart brand seems to work fine for me! Good luck nobody likes dry skin :(
-
Aveeno is a very trusted brand for dry skin. Gold Bond and St Ives also works for me, but if you're looking for something pretty cheap and still pretty good I've had decent luck with Suave.
-
I like to use cocoa butter. And I use baby oil after I shower.
-
I use Aquaphor by Eucerin is great for dry skin.
-
When my skin gets really dry and itchy I use oatmeal bath, it works great.
-
what would you guys suggest for skin thats so dry its almost like eczema
-
My doctor told me to use Eucerin cream when I had such dry skin after major surgery.
-
the best is Cetaphil! fragrance free, so you don't get tired of the smell.
-
wow
-
Vaseline any type from this brand is good for the skin.
-
I just buy the cheapest lotion I can get for dry skin.
-
I like an all natural brand as long as the ingridients r natural
-
Can't answer that. I have always had excessively oily skin. It's good in one way and bad in another. :peace:
-
I make my own with raw unrefined Shea butter, unrefined coconut oil and grape seed oil. Or I use Everyday Coconut super hydrating lotion. Occasionally I use Shea Moisture raw Shea butter lotion (find that at most drug stores)
I have naturally dry skin.
-
i use Dial lotion. its fairly new i think, at least i've only recently found out about it. it goes on, dries very quickly without leaving a greasy feel to your skin
-
Avon has a lotion Moister Therapy something that very good and it's not to expensive.
-
Jergens is the best for me. Neutrogena moisturizer for your face.
-
What's the best lotion you have used for dry, flakey skin? ::) ???
I like Jergens Ultra Healing, or as a few others mentioned, cocoa butter.
-
My son gets really bad eczema and dry skin and I've found that the very best cream which prevents it is Aveeno Baby Soothing Relief Moisture Cream. I also do a lot of washing up so afterwards I apply some to my own hands and it seems to keep my hands feeling supple and moisturized until I wash my hands again. If I apply some to my sons skin even just once, for the next few days his skin is softer and suppler although it is even better if you keep applying it every day.

Nice to see all the suggestions because I have a dry skin also specially now that we start using the heater.
-
I am also glad to see all of these suggestions as I've never been sure what to use. I'm still not sure but I seem to have a lot of choices. Now all I need is enough money to buy a few of them.
-
I have really dry skin because I take so much medicene, I saw a new gold bond lotion made especially for diabetics and I am going to try that. I could file my nails on the heels of my feet they are so dry! LOL
-
I think co co butter does,,my husband has very dry skin also!! :-\
-
Coconut oil or Eucerin calming cream
-
I like Aveeno and Kiss my Face lotion for dry skin.
-
pure coconut oil is the best or baby oil
-

Suave lotion(s) help heal dry skin very well
-
coconut oil or vitamin e oil
-
Oh you and me both. I am still looking for a remedy for my skin during cold weather. My hands are just scaly and not even have regular skin. They feel like a toasted piece of bread. I keep seeing the video for dove lotion but my wife says, she doesn't like dove.
-
never leave the tub without a layer of baby oil added... ah, that helps! and yes, coconut is awesome!
-
I am going to try that new lotion from Gold bond that is for diabetic skin. My skin is sooo dry.
-
I used any lotion as long as it moisturizing my skin, I have a dry skin also.
-
I am also a fellow dry skin sufferer. I religiously use various lotions each day with little relief.
-
My doctor told me to use Eucerin cream when I had such dry skin after major surgery.
I used Eucerin, too, but ran out right now. It worked great on my leg. Funny, though, the radiology oncologist recommended AquaPhor and gave me samples. I tried it but it blistered over my surgical scar and the area got infected. It took a month to cure the infection and now I have a large brown area where the AquaPhor was originally placed.
My skin is very itchy all year, too, and it drives me nuts. I'm forever scratching myself open, especially on my shoulders, arms, and legs. I used a moisturizing body wash and I'm good for a day, then I start all over again. :(
-
I use vaseline.....everyone don't like it, but I put it on my moist skin and it relieves the dryness.....
-
both my husband and my 1 year old have eczema really bad. make sure you dont go with any lotion that has floral scents as it with actually irritate your skin more. we use gold bond unscented . it works really good and feels completely different from other lotions its thicker and more creamy.
-
I find Nivea works well, especially for that area under your nose that gets raw after a cold. Doesn't have that stinging affect.
-
I also like to use olive oil for very dry skin. My skin absorbs it quickly.
-
This winter has been the worse for me. The only thing that's been working is Vaseline Total Moisture lotion.
-
Cornhuskers. It does incredible things for the skin. Even my husband will use it and he refuses every other lotion because he says they're greasy! Men. I also make my own soap!
-
I have the same issues and my
Sister suggested Eucerin
It Works great!!
-
I struggle with dry skin as well. I use Ahava Moisturizing Lotion. It is terrific and is gentle on my sensitive skin.
-
Cetaphil is simple and it works for all skin types.
-
The best lotion for dry skin that I have ever seen is Renew Lotion made by Melaleuca. It has cured many cases of eczema, and outperformed Eucerin in clinical studies. My daughter's mother-in-law has a terrible skin condition on her hands and has tried everything. When she used Renew, she said it worked better than anything she had ever tried.
-
Moisture rich body lotion by clarins is the best darn body lotion hands down...it is pricey but it turns skin into skin...seriously I cannot complain. Philosophy makes a really good body lotion also. Night time use is obvious, the daytime who cares... It does while you are sleeping and really works.
-
I love cocoa butter, it's all I use.
-
I'm not too concerned with the brand (Generic is fine) but I use medicated lotion with aloe vera.
-
my wife skin is so dry that she soaks in a bath with baby oil
