It puts the lotion on it's skin! Anyways, my skin has gotten ridiculously dry over the last few weeks. It's disgusting and even my nipples are dry and flaky. It's also really itchy and over the last few nights, I've actually scratched my legs so bad in my sleep that I have open scrapes on them. I need something thick, moisturizing, and calming that isn't greasy. I had some Eucerin but that was greasy. Same with the Vaseline Intensive Care. I'm using some all-natural Jergens stuff right now and I put it one twice a day. I like it, but I don't think it's doing enough.
