I think most all lotions are ok, but get your skin wet before you apply what you use. It is moisture your skin lacks not oils and lotions...the lotion will lock in the moisture. Lotions can make the dryness worse without the moisture applied first. You should avoid fragrances, urea, lactic acid and ammonium lactate in your lotions. My SIL's allergist said "women would have less skin problems if they used Moisterlle". Not sure of the spelling on that. My sis's doc recommended Aveeno products. Also if you use oils in your bath get wet first then put the oil in the tub.

I only went to Seville for a day, so I probably missed as much as i saw. Hit the usual sights -- Plaza de Espana (where Lawrence of arabia was filmed), Plaza d'Toros, the Alcazar and the Cathedral of Seville (as opposed to the Barber) to visit the grave of Christopher Columbus. We ate Spanish tortillas while sitting on a wall. Lots of cute winding streets and shops to explore. Madrid is gorgeous. I loved the area called Bario des las Letres. Lots of good casual restaurants. We ate tapas at one called Lateral and the food was great. Order Summer Wine if the others don't want to share a pitcher of sangria. Everyone -- all ages -- were out and about until well into the evening. Hard to find a restaurant that opens before 8:30. Go visit the turtles in the train station. The Metro is easy to use and clean. The Prado is overwhelming. I enjoyed the Sofia Reina which has Guernica and other modern art. Best of all were the small towns. Ronda was beyond gorgeous and so interesting. Now -- back to product recommendations! I recommend packing cubes ! They are the best for keeping your clothes organized when traveling.

Thanks! Oakley -yay for Aquage! That brush looks amazing. Funkyart which style do you think runs wider? My feet feel much better. My left foot doesn’t hurt at all anymore when I have them on. The right foot still does but I suspect it will take awhile for that foot to settle down. I really need a pair of comfortable (standard work with almost anything black) boots/booties but don’t really like their styles. Theres one that’s ok but I wish the toebox was shaped a little different. Going to order more sandals. Im going to look into some of the other sandals mentioned here too. Thanks Eld. Yeon -The small bottle (they have a large size too) has a dropper and I just put a drop on the applicator and run it along the top. Another drop for the bottom and drop right at the beginning of the spooly brush to use on my brows. It sounds like a lot but I have over half a bottle still. I don’t recommend brushing the oil on the lashes with the spooly brush (mascara wand) because the oil is so thick it just beads up. It’s kind of gunky feeling but doesn’t irritate the eyes at all. I do it right before bed and sleep with it on. In the morning I just rub my eyes. It seems some of its absorbed in because there’s less. ETA - Thanks for suggestions about exercises. I was thinking there was probably stretches or something I could do to help. I'll check it out. Justerrilynn -They look great! And nice ZZ plant too.

Thanks for this thread. I used to swear by O'Keefe's Lip Repair. but this year I have the worst chapping problem I've ever had, and it's notworking at all. Pre-pandemic, I wore lipstick whenever I left the house, but for the past two years none of my lipsticks have even made it to my purse. I read the whole thread and just ordered the Burt's Bees Ultra Conditioning product and also Aquaphor Lip Repair. They arrive tomorrow from Amazon. Thanks, all!
