Vaseline for Dry Skin Works!

Vaseline works great on dry, scaly skin!

If you happen to be unlucky enough to develop that occasional patch of dry scaly skin or eczema; be proactive! Once the telltale signs of dryness begin to develop and you start to feel the beginning tingly itchiness, reach for the Vaseline.

Yes, that's right, plain �old Vaseline!

Petroleum based products hold in the skins' natural moisture. Just a little dab on the spot right before bed for a few nights will usually take care of the dry spot and prevent that tell tale patch of eczema from developing into a raging red, itchy, scaly, ugly splotch.

During the day, another trick is to simply use chapstick on the dry spot. Both strategies together will keep your skin looking much better during the winter months when the patches of dry skin seems to become much worse.

Vaseline for Dry Skin Works!
by: martin

Yeah vaseline works, but it may some cause and effect on skin,
Perhaps you could try oil instead of creams and lotions?

I have dry skin as well, especially around my eyes and my forehead is always a bit flaky. I tried lots of different creams but none of them did a good job.

I now use oil which I buy from the Beautiful Pure skin care product line. I use the wrinkle relief which I mainly use at night, during the day I use a cream with SPF.

For my body I also use the bath & body oils from the same shop, they are really nice and I don't have that dry itchy feeling after a shower.

I think they also do eczema oil, especially for dry and irritated skin so perhaps you could give that one a try.

Also very good for dry patches is unrefined sheabutter.

This is a great tip and it does work wonders!

If you have a particularly stubborn dry spot or scaly skin patch, I find that putting an antibiotic ointment on it for a few nights if the vaseline just isn't working fast enough does the trick.
