  My skin is extremely dry. I use Working Hands. It's a lotion for dry skin that cracks and splits and it's unscented. Bed Bath and Beyond has it as well as Menards. The green container is for hands and the blue is for feet. I bought it for my husband who works with his hands all day and he loves it. His skin is very soft and healthy. You don't need to use much a dime size amount or less.

  Coconut oil. Nice creamy organic coconut oil is a life saver for me. I slayer it on after each shower and carry it around for my hands too. Plus it's cheaper

  Have you had your Vitamin D level checked? My skin was dry at the beginning of this pregnancy and my doctor checked mine, I guess there's a correlation between low Vitamin D and dry skin. Mine wasn't low but can't hurt to check and see.

  I second coconut oil! I've been using it for 8 years now as my body moisturizer. Since becoming pregnant, I find I have to apply it 3-4 times a day now as opposed to twice a day. My skin is so sensitive, it will crack and hurt immediately after washing my hands if I don't apply a moisturizer!

  Coconut oil is great but if you're weird about the greasy feeling like I am, try lubriderm advanced therapy lotion. Its amazing!!!
