Dry skin blues

Living in a very dry climate AND at high altitude causes the majority of children in this town to have dry skin and even eczema.  We have been battling it all summer with our younger son and even though he still isn't "skin problem" free yet, I collected lots of advice that seems to help.

A few of our favorite dry skin items:

1.  Cetaphil liquid soap----been using this for years!

2.  Tide free detergent---free of all perfumes and dyes that can further dry out skin

3.  Aquafor---really greasy, but great to spread on dry patches after bath

4.  Curel lotion---also been using this every single day for years

5.   Seventh Generation or Method Fabric Softener ---use less than directed
