Dry skin is my perennial problem.  My skin literally turns to white because of extreme dryness.  I tried to remedy it by putting on lotion but it wasn’t effective.  Good thing I found out a skin moisturizer by Avon that was effective.  What I do is as soon as I step out of the shower and after wiping the excess water off I rub on my skin moisturizer right away.  Now, I notice my skin does not turn white anymore like it used to.  I also feel that my skin is softer now.  Taking care of our skin is a must because dry skin is the first sign of aging.  So moisturizer your skin every day and drink lots of water to have healthy skin.
