Glycerin soap
terri g in warren ri -
Glycerin soap is 100 percent vegetable soap that totally rinses off. All the other brand names, don't rinse off, that's why skin gets dry. Also drink a couple of cups of ginseng tea per day, you'll not only notice less dry skin, but also softer hair. But don't drink it at night, or you won't get to sleep any time soon. Glycerin soap is available in any dollar store.

Vaseline and Tea Tree Oil
kamila in Ontario, Canada -First you must judge what KIND of dryness it is. How long have you had it?Could it get infected if its a deep crack? For deep cracks use tea tree oil.It will heal the skin but not the dryness.Vaseline does that. Yes, its a bit greasy but it is quite simply, one of the best.I usually use a combination of tea tree oil first with some vaseline ontop.

Natural Cure For Dry Skin - Pure Sea Buckthorn Oil
Miranda in United Kingdom -Pure sea buckthorn oil works wonders for all sorts of dry and sensitive skin conditions such as eczema and rosacea.
Most sea buckthorn oil products don't contain a very high percentage of sea buckthorn oil but I have found somewhere to buy it online that does not dilute it.

It must be applied all over the face and left on over-night. Works wonders at regulating and re-balancing your skins own production of lipids as well as healing skin damage.

Dry Chapped Skin or Lips
Carol in CT -
Can you believe they want $2.00 for a little stick of chapstick? Why not use a little vaseline for relief? Vaseline does not absorb into the skin.
For chapped and dry hands, if you have the ingredients, apply glycerin and lemon juice in equal amounts and leave overnight.
You can also rub lotion on your hands and wear gloves to bed, like surgical gloves. In the morning, oh... what soft hands. I need to do this treatment to my feet somehow.
To keep your face from chapping in winter, apply a little vaseline to your cheeks and nose before going outside.
