What are you all using for dry skin?  My skin is so dry and ichy and everything that I try is not working.

    Sleeping with a humidifier might help, too.

    Cocoa butter, olive oil/Coconut or Walnut and Vitamin E oil. I put vitamin E oil on my belly while I shower and at night I soak in oil in the bath tub.

    oh that dove exfoliating body wash is the best thing ever. i was using dial soap then switched to dove because it really is more moisturizing. i can feel the difference. i lotion up all day long and still have dry patches of skin.  if they get flaky then i might put some type of ointment on it but i haven't really found anything to get rid of it. i drink tons of water. i dont know what else to do but chalk it up to pregnancy.

    Me and DH give each other massages with Aveeno Stress Relief Lotion . . . It's pretty nice . . . and then I cover my belly with Vitamin E belly butter . . . Just to ward of stretch marks . . :o)

    Ditto the Eucerin. it works wonders! I had such bad dry skin the last pregnancy (also through the winter) and I panicked thinking it was stretch marks everywhere. Just terrible dry skin so the Eucerin has been wonderful.

    Eucerin! And if it's super dry, or you start getting eczema or red itchy patches, use Cetaphil cream (the generic brand works just as well!).

    Gold Bond Ultimate Softening Lotion.  https://www.goldbond.com/gold-bond-products.html Seriously.  Doesn't have the icky Gold Bond smell, and it is hands down the best moisturizer I have ever used in my life.  My mom randomly got it for me one winter a couple of years ago, and I've sworn by it ever since for when my skin is that awful itchy sort of dry. 
    *tap tap* Is this thing on?
