My skin can be so dry that I can write my name in it. However, Eucerin prevents my skin from hydrating and even causes problems. I do like Aquaphor and Aveeno, though.
I have to shower every morning, or I just don't feel awake. Even after a hot soak or ice bath, I have to shower. So, fragrance-free gel soaps, lotions and baby oils are the only ways I can get sufficient topical relief.
Otherwise, drinking lots of water helps. My doctor said that I wasn't getting enough fat in my diet (isn't that a switch), so I simply added a bit more olive oil in my cooking. Speaking of which, my grandfather had beautiful skin and attributed it to his use of olive oil as a moisturizer.
