There is this brand called Melaluca (or something like that?) I think it's like a catalogue brand like Avon is..
Anyways, my mom buys stuff from them, and they make this cream called Renew.
It's actually fan-fucking-tastic for dry skin.
I should find out if you can buy it online.

I'm intrigued. I tried googling but didn't get very far

I found this page.. http://www.melaleuca.com/ProductStore/ProductDetail.aspx?sku=6617
but I don't see a price to buy it online..
I wonder if my mom has any travel size ones I could mail to you! I'll have to ask her..

I even used it on my face when I was getting some dry patches, and it didn't break me out (which surprised the shit outta me!)

It sounds pretty great, I'd love to try a sample. :)

I used my friends Curel Ultra Healing with Advanced Ceramide Therapy, every day all summer, it was sitting by her sink, and I was at her house nannying for their twins. I called her from the drug store last month like "what's that lotion sitting by your sink that I used everyday all summer? I completely miss it."

Can't recommend it enough, it's in an enormous pump bottle and it's thick and creamy but NOT greasy and I can feel it on my hands for HOURS after. LOVE IT

I second this one. Curel is awesome. I got a sample from my dermatologist and it is the best for dry skin. I still use Palmer's lotion though, because Curel is no fragrance and I like to smell like sugar cookies.

good to know :)

Thank you! I'm almost certain I've seen Curel around here, so maybe this weekend I'll go on a hunt for some.

Hours after, even after washing your hands?
