I thought I would share this in case anyone else is having dry skin issues right now!
For the last two months or so, I have had terribly dry hands and elbows. I am going to attribute this partially to the dry weather we've been having, but I've also read that being pregnant can affect your skin's moisture, so I'm sure it's a little of both. To help the dryness, I've been applying different lotions, butters and salves to my hands all the time, but so far they've never gotten soft, there is always a dryness to them.
So, today I thought I would go get the big guns! I've been seeing commercials for the Vaseline Clinical Therapy and thought it would be good to try, since nothing so far has worked. I bought it at Target and it was on sale! I barely waited until we were out of the store to apply it, I think we were still walking to the car. After one application my hands were noticeably softer, but still had some rough spots. Then a few hours later I applied it again and my hands were even better, and my dry elbow was especially soft (it was so dry it had started cracking and hurting). On their website www.prescribethenation.com they say it takes about 5 days to heal dry skin, but so far I am impressed with the results.
