just a quick note, I make a whipped shea
butter cream , with a rose scent it is
excellent for any dry skin, and the rose
is aroma-theraputic

Fish oil supplements!
I like to moisturize my skin from the
inside. You are what you eat... I also
take daily Vitamin E supplements as well
as a multivitamin. Maybe what you're
missing is in your diet.

Where the heck do you buy shea?
The best thing for very dry skin is an oil
based lotion. Olive oil works well too and
it's easier to find...and you don't have
to make it.
