When I first moved to Colorado 16 years ago I developed some very dry skin. I had always lived in humid climates and wasn't sure what to do. A friend told me about putting lotion on right after a shower. It works! I just pat myself dry and lather on lotion. Without that process my skin would get dry and chalky looking.
And, I agree with Tamar, drinking water WILL help in keeping the skin hydrated. (among many other good things)
I would never use crisco simply becasue of the greasy texture. Too many other choices out there. |
