Dry Skin

Sarah has really dry skin on her arms especially on her elbows. Is there anything I can use for it? I have tried to use oil in the bath but I think its making it worse?!

Aquaphor is fantastic for dry skin but i'm not sure you can get it where you are?

Eucerin lotion works great.

I agree about Aquaphor! Peyton has slight eczema on her legs and arms and we put Aquaphor on every night before bed and have no more problems with the eczema.

My ped. recommended Eucerin, Aquaphor, or Aveeno. We use Aveeno (along with a couple of prescription medications on occasion, because of some really bad eczema) and Sam's skin is doing great now.
