my skin is so dry lately
Quote from Honeybee2001 on July 24, 2019, 4:15 amIts just awful this winter. My hands look like old parchment paper and the skin on my face feels tight all the time. I tried that Cetaphil stuff from CVS but it didnt help much. Then I got some Olay from Walgreens yesterday, the red jar, but my elbows still feel rough. I even put lotion on before bed last night, around 10, and woke up still feeling like sandpaper. Is anyone else dealing with this?

Quote from Warmglen on July 28, 2019, 2:11 pmOh man, the tightness is the worst. I feel like I’m going to crack. My mom told me to try Vaseline at night, just a thin layer, and it’s actually making a difference. I do it after my regular moisturizer.

Quote from Towerpace on July 31, 2019, 12:15 pmI'm right there with you! My face feels so tight too, especially after I wash it. I usually just use whatever generic moisturizer I have, but I'm going to have to look into something else. Maybe something for sensitive skin?

Quote from countryroad42 on August 6, 2019, 7:35 amI know exactly what you mean about the tightness after washing your face. I was just using whatever generic stuff I had, but I'm starting to think I need to switch. My daughter recommended something from the drugstore.
