Dry Skin

**ICN** · 05-05-2002, 01:34 AM

I have really well, not really dry, but somewhat dry legs. It looks like some old man's legs or something. Which cream is best for dry skin. If you gonna say Eucerin or cocoa butter, don't bother, those ish don't work.

HHHHEEEEELLLLLLPPPPPPP

Try mixing rosewater, glycerin & olive oil/babby oil with Keri-lotion.
I recommend olive oil, baby oil will only give a shinny effect
and may not improve the dryness but olive oil is the thing.
Before each use, shake well and apply. If your skin
is extra dry like alligator skin, you may need to reapply
it later on in the day. Give it a week. if this doesnt help, come back for a more advanced solution.

If creams don't work, go see a dermatologist.

Shea butter is really good for dry skin, except it really smells in its natural form. Body Butters from the Body shop have a shea butter base try Sesame, Nut or Mango, they're really good for dry skin.
Also exfoliate with a good scrub, remove all the dead skin cells and see the difference - body shop has a great rice bran scrub that is very moisturizing

I know what you mean but I think the kind of skin ICN is talking about is seriousllllyyyyy dry skin. I have family members who have tried shear butter and all these stuff. Body shop stuff is not for the black man's typical tough alligator dry skin.

It's not unmanly, abi you wan keep walking around with dry skin. My dear just try and see if it works. Sesame and nut don't smell "girly" and the shea butter is good for your skin, unless you have the skin vinyl is taking about.
