Best Products For Sensitive or Dry Skin

I have suffered from Eczema ever since I can remember. It used to be so bad that I wasn't allowed to have baths or long showers because the water would irritate my skin so badly (even soft water). My mom also used to cover my hands in thick creams and put socks over them at night. I live in Utah, so it is very dry here--especially in the Winter, and I remember that when I was in 2nd grade my teacher bought me lotion because my hands were cracking and bleeding and constantly covered in rashes. It was so much fun.

Over the years, I have tried many different products to keep my Eczema under control. I hope you find this post helpful :)

• Aquaphor: I started using this when I was around 3 years old after my pediatrician recommended it. This is what my mom would cover my arms with. It's a miracle worker! I would go to bed with the worst skin & wake up with super soft, healed skin. The only thing that I don't like about this product is that it makes your hands feel really greasy for quite a while, but that is how it heals and moisturizes. Make sure you wear gloves or socks on your hands when you use this product. I recommend using it before you go to bed at night, after you shower.

• Vanicream Cleansing Bar: This works well. It's not my favorite bar of soap for sensitive skin, but it still gets the job done. The only problem with it is it stinks; I think it smells like wet dog. 

  

  $3.49 at Walgreens

• Vanicream Moisturizing Skin Cream: This is a great cream! It works well for both hands and feet. It's almost like Aquaphor, just less greasy and a little less moisturizing. 

  

  $13.99 at Walgreens

• Vanicream Lite Skin Care Lotion: This is probably my favorite hand lotion for sensitive skin. My hands seriously can't get enough of it. I find myself going through bottles and bottles of this because I love it so much. My grandpa loves it too- probably even more than I do; he has a bottle in every room in his house (& I'm not even kidding). It's super moisturizing and works wonders!

• Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion: I really like this lotion, it's my go-to lotion. Since Vanicream is fairly hard to find in stores, this is the next best thing. I like using it on my legs especially. I load it on my legs after I shower & I put socks over it. After I take the socks off, I can still feel the moisture from the lotion for the rest of the day!

• Cetaphil Daily Cleansing Bar: This is the best bar of soap for dry/sensitive skin. It works very well! I use this on my arms and legs.

Overall:

Favorite hand lotion: Vanicream Lite Skin Care Lotion

Favorite foot lotion: Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion

Favorite Cream: Aquaphor

Favorite Soap: Cetaphil Daily Cleansing Bar

That's all for this post. I was able to mention my current favorites, but this is just a handful of all the products I've tried over the years, so you can definitely expect a similar post in the future with even more products :)
