[quote=Anonymous]I have extremely dry skin in winter. Here's what I do: 1) Get a good humidifier and turn it on at least an hour before bedtime. I've found the invisible cool mist type are the best. Buy a case of filters and don't let water sit in it ever to avoid mold. 2) Do not use soap. For years I used Dove but even that dries me out now. I use Eucerin calming body wash instead and it works great. 3) Baths should not be hot. Use the coolest temperature that doesn't feel cold to dd. Moisturize immediately after bath. 4) When the skin i actively itchy at bedtime: rub the area lightly with water, moisturize with a heavy moisturizer, and wrap the body part with saran wrap. My dermatologist recommended this and it works wonders. Good luck. [/quote]
