or cetaphil butter or milk to be your bodycare moisturizer  |

| Rosebud oil works well. Jensen's skin repair cream too. |

[quote="moosette"]Okay, its minus 25C right now and my skin is suffering big time!  What would you recommend for these chilly Canadian winters? I'd prefer something that I can purchase in a drugstore or retail outlet that doesn't cost a small fortune. TIA![/quote]
a lot of ppl gave me a compliment coz of my skin are sooo soft. And this is what I use everyday...cheap..and work really well. Curel advance healing..=). Once a week I used a srub that i bought in spa in Indonesia..oh wow that works really really well. If i do go home, I'll buy a box and resell it ..hehehe.
Hope this helps |

Well, the Scottish blood in me wants to save money even though the Canadian winter skin gets dry and itchy. I have to admit that using baby oil seems to add wonders to my skin after the shower (I put it on while still wet) and some has aloe added and/or vitamin e. Others are more fragrance free if that's not something you want. When I am stuck and forgot to get a new bottle, I run to the kitchen and use olive oil.
When I absolutely have to buy something I use the Vasoline Itensive Skin Care or whatever might have some Shea Butter in it. |

| I had terrible winter skin for years on my legs and waist and would scratch until I bled. Then someone on another board told me about AM Lactin. You can get it at your local drug store. I guess some would say it has bad stuff in it - Parabens and even mineral oil. But it is cheap and for me it changed my life. I am on the lookout for somthing healthier but all the ones I try feel sticky on my skin or don't work as well. So for now, I can't get through winters without this. Worth a try. Great for my elbow skin too. Let me know if you try this. I was so happy to find a cheap solution. |

Hi CooCoo,
Can you let me know the name of the bodyscrub you got from Indonesia?
TIA |

The best thing I've found so far is using Paula's Choice Skin Revealing Body Lotion with 10% Alpha Hydroxy Acid about 3-4 times per week. I wait about 30 minutes then use one of my favorite body lotions on top. The other nights I just use body lotion only.
I also use an inexpensive humidifier in my bedroom all through the winter.

| After I've turned off the water I'm wipe off excess water with my hands and then I'll rub johnson's baby oil with aloe vera into my skin. I get really dry skin too and this has helped me, although I do need extra moisture on some spots like my feet. hth! |

i live in london where its always cold it seems. it took me ages after i moved here to find a good, affordable body lotion that was available everywhere and soaked in nicely without being sticky. i LOVE palmer's body butter lotion, they make a non scented one so you dont have to walk about smelling like coconut all day!  |
