Long Lasting Moisturizer
Not a miracle product, but deffinitely keeps dryness and itchiness at bay for longer than anything else I've tried. Consistency is pasty and  greasy. But unlike some heavy duty moisturizers, it does not rub off on clothes or hair too badly. I would only recommend this particular cream for severely dry skin as the packaging indicates.<br />During pregnancy I began having really dry, itchy, red skin on my hands and face.  My skin, normally moderately-sensitive, became super-sensitive and I had to discontinue use of all products I had been using on my face, since they all made my face burn and itch. I went to see a dermatologist who told me to discontinue all products except for vaseline and Cetaphil Cleanser and also prescribed a steroid ointment.  Eventually had to change my shampoo and conditioner as well since they were also irritating. Anyhow that combo did help, but even the Vaseline was not keeping the dry skin at bay. I had to reapply several times a day. After sleeping I always woke up with dry flaky patches. I was desperate to find something more long lasting.<br />I searched the national eczema foundation website and found that Theraplex Emollient had 5 out of 5 on their rating system so I ordered it to give it a try. Initially I got the smaller tub since I wanted to waste s little money as possible if it didn't work. When I started using it I immediately noticed a difference.  For me this will last through all day without reapplication, so I only have to use it morning and night, instead of every few hours like other creams I've tried.  Like I said it isn't a miracle cure, but it has definitely helped make me more comfortable.
