Dry Skin

The winter months are hard on the skin and our family is no different. Dry hands, face, elbows and even feet and legs get that scaly cracked skin. This winter my face has been so dry and I cannot figure out why. My husband’s hands have been extra dry and very rough, but he thinks that his frequent use of hand sanitizer may be at the root of his problem. Some of the younger children’s legs have been dry. We do not bathe as often during the winter so it is hard to pin point what is causing the dry skin. It has become my quest to find a solution.

We have tried numerous products and lotion, one has worked better than others but still leaves a greasy residue. That’s why when we were introduced to Dial™ NutriSkin™ I decided to try it. It is new and they are adding extra vitamins and nutrients to it therefore it appealed to me to see what it was like. I went to Walmart since they were having an in-store demo so I could try it before I bought the lotion. I have to be careful what I buy because so many of my children have sensitive skin.

Walmart did not have the full selection of Dial™ NutriSkin™ lotions or body wash. I was really looking forward to trying one of their fruity scented body washes, but they only had two and one was not very fruity smelling. In their lotion, I could only choose from 2 products: Shea Butter and Aloe. The demo lady had a third lotion on the demo table but I forgot to try it after the Aloe because I had so much Aloe on my hands! I liked both in regards to scent, but decided on the Aloe because it was on sale for $3 and the demo lady gave me a coupons for $1 off. I really liked that price compared to the $4 regular price and the $5 price of other brands. So far my hands are still very smooth and soft, not to mention good! My husband just put some on so time will tell Dial™ NutriSkin™ lotion will work for him.

My oldest daughter will be the final judge on this product since she has the most chemical sensitivities.

As a side note, I was talking to a friend this weekend who has eczema and psoriasis and she takes Vitamin D supplements and/or cod liver oil to combat it and it helps. She only does this during the winter months when she doesn’t get enough sunshine.

    Winter can be horrible on skin..I know! I have used Dial and it works great.

  28. Stefanie McMullen says:

    Thanks for the post! My whole family is suffering horribly with dry skin this winter too. I have bad eczema on my legs and nothing seems to be helping. Both my husband and I have been dealing with our hands cracking despite the fact that we both moisturize. Frustrating winter!

  29. Carolyn H says:

    I have not used Dial lotion before…will have to try it, thanks!

  30. My husband suffers from skin problems like dry skin and eczema.

  31. Crystal, my friend told me over the weekend that Vitamin D supplements or cod liver oil is good for her eczema and psoriasis. She takes it during the winter months and then in the summer she doesn’t take anything because she gets enough sunshine.

  32. Crystal Epperson says:

    Me and my husband have very dry skin in the winter. We will have to try this!

  33. I got one of these bottles as a sample in the mail when they first came out with it. I LOVE this stuff! It is so awesome for dry everything! I use it mainly on my hands, but it works great all over. I love how there isn’t any greasy residue too!

  34. Sally A. Peckham says:

    Thanks for the great info on the new Dial lotion line. I hadn’t heard about it. I suffer from dry skin also especially in the winter & have to endure sensitive skin in addition.

  35. Glad this post seems to have helped so many!

    My whole fam gets so dried out in the wintertime – especially our sinuses! Spring is coming… thanks for the tip!

  42. trishden says:

    Hello, I’m not a big fan of creams and lotions because of the greasy factor. I do use vitamin D, maybe that is helping my skin. Thanks for the review.

  43. Christina Perry says:

    My skin is so dry, I will have to try this. Thanks!

  44. Marthalynn says:

    I’ve never tried the Dial NutriSkin line, but it sounds really good! I’m surprised walmart didn’t have the full line. Maybe I’ll check it out on Amazon. They have everything!!

  45. Julie Wood says:

    My son too has really dry skin. I bought some of this same lotion, and it really helped his dry skin!

  46. Marcie W. says:

    I have some of this Dial lotion in my “stockpile” thanks to a coupon I had late last year. I’m excited to try it now!

  47. BlackAsphodel says:

    You should try Garnier Body Repair! It softens very dry skin instantly when you apply it on damp skin and it smells really nice. It is available in a 400 ml bottle and very cheap.

  48. Nancy says:

    I’ve never experience winter but when I do perhaps I would also grab the same brand since I’ve been a dial products user for a along time now.

  49. Louise says:

    wow you do have dry skin. what a great review!

  50. Amy Orvin says:

    Thanks for the great review. My mom could really use this.
