Why not buy unscented if you don't like the smell?

I love the eucerin others are posting but I also love trader joes body butter. I bought it on a whim but I cannot believe how smooth it makes my feet after just one application.

I just posted above (bloody knuckles!) The Aveeno lotion someone linked is very good too. Eucerin et al do nothing for me.

This is the answer - also someone else mentioned a urea based cream which is also a good idea. I use the Prequel one. But as someone with extremely dry skin - like bleeding knuckles bad - O’Keefes is the best.

Our ped also recommended vanicream for excema. Works great!
Eucerin is too greasy for me.

fragrance free cetaphil

fragrance free lubriderm

you need to use something simple and fragrance free. whatever you are using could be irritating your skin and making it worse.

I like this one too. If your skin is extremely dry you need to exfoliate too to get the dead skin off so the moisturizer can get in. This moisturizer contains urea and can help with that, but I would recommend making sure to at least be using a washcloth in the shower to exfoliate.

NP. I like this version too, and I use oil an extra layer throughout.

This Olay cream is marketed for face, but I use it on my body. It even keeps my feet soft; I love it:
