I use Dove moisturizing body wash; Dove cream-oil lotion in the morning immediately after I get out of the shower, while my skin is still damp; and Burts Bees Mama Bee body butter at night before bed. I still get some itchies but this has been my best "routine" so far.

i've been using a johnson and johnsons baby lotion with shea butter all over my body. then also on my tummy, boobs, and anywhere else i'm using the Burts Bees Mama Bee Belly Butter. super thick and i love it! if it wasn't so pricey i'd use it all over my body!

mym mom got me some oil (full size free samples!) at the chocolate show this year that works well. It's from Palmers and has a chocolately smell. The main ingredient though is canola oil.. so i'm thinking I could use a bottle of wesson as a refill.... I've also been using actual olive oil.
For daytime (don't want to oil my clothes) i use Aveeno.

Eucerin Calming Creme works wonders!!! I have such itchy skin and a friend recommended it - worth every penny! I love it!
Yes! This lotion works wonders! I'm not a big fan of lotion because I find them to be too greasy, not work, etc., but this one is the exception! I don't know what I'd do without it now.
The smell of palmers makes me want to vomit . . . and I never had any m/s. My son has eczema and the derm recommends cetaphil (cream over the lotion but both are good for me.)
I normally will loofa my skin and then when I get out I use Eucerin mixed with Cocoa Butter....on my body....on my face I normally just have to use Noxzema and then I use a liquid Vitamin E on my face along with a 100% pure Cocoa Butter stick....
When I lived in Chicago I used Neutrogena Body Oil in the winter. Put it on right out of the shower when skin in damp. I don't use it now that I live in Miami because it's so humid here, even this time of year.

I use Eucerin itch relief and the calming creme, so worth it!!!
