Lately I have been itching very badly. I don't normally moisturize my skin, but I have been. What kind of ....

What kind of lotion should I use to stop from itching. I have exfoliated my skin and now have started putting lotion on, but what would be a good kind to stop from being so dry? Aveeno is doing nothing for me and I have tried Nivea as well as Baby lotion.

I have very dry and sensitive skin the only two lotions I've been able to use for the past six years is from Bath %26amp; Body works. It's a part of the true blue spa line called Lay it on thick, it has shea butter which is great, and it holds all day. The other I think has been discontinued it was a part of their pure simplicity line called co coa body balm it also lasts all day. Find a Bath %26amp; Body near you and use a sample to see if it agrees with your body chemistry. Also you might have to see a dermatolagist to see what all ingredients you have to avoid. Hope you love it as much as I do.

Reply:Gold Bond! It is medicated for itchy skin, my hubby even has me put it on his back when it itches. It doesnt smell the greatest,(not bad, though) but really works. Curel works great too, i use it after a shower, or bath while my skin is still moist. It absorbs better that way.
Reply:My advice is use products that are PH5 to 7. These are all for Sensitive skin. Use wash as well with PH 5 to 7. It helps smooth the skin.
Reply:firstly, stop exfoliating your skin as it just make it worse. apply lotion after bath and before going to bed. i recommend Palmers Cocoa Butter or St Ives Swiss Formula other ways that can help to restore moisture is to drink plenty of water, eat fruits for Vit C and stay away from direct sun exposure or air condition. normally, you can see improved skin condition about a week. happy lotioning!!
Reply:first,stop using regular soap.it is full of chemicals that can have a bad effect on the skin.look for all natural soaps,only oils and lye.there's nothing that can cause problems in those.I've been making soap for many years and i find that if i use my luxury soap with cocoa and Shea butters,i don't need a moisturiser at all.also,after you wash your clothes,put 1/2 cup white vinegar in the rinse.it will remove any detergent residue left in your clothes.
Reply:Jergens for EXTRA dry skin, or Vaseline intensive care works really good. I know what you are going through, I get like that every time the seasons change. Good luck
Reply:Be careful not to use lotions with a mineral oil to them.


It's a cheap filler and hardens skin not softens it. People think otherwise. This is baby oil, petroleum (vaseline)...


If you took a cracker and placed it in a 1/4 of baby oil (which is distilled vaseline) it hardens if you take the same cracker and place it in 1/4 water it softens.


People think it works - but over time it is doing more harm then good.





So.. be careful about what you put on and use pure and natural products to help -
