We've been here 12 years now and I thought I could not take another day. My dermatologist recommended Cetaphil, so I had been using it religiously, but I must admit it was not the miracle cure I was expecting. Then one fortuitous day I was buying my trusty Tea Tree Oil shampoo at Trader Joe's and I saw bottles of Vitamin E Oil and Jojoba Oil ... right next to the shampoo! How could I not have noticed these before? I desperately put both into my shopping cart. I would have bought more oils had there been more to choose from. I crossed my fingers super tight and willed these things to do some magic trick for me. The second I got home I slathered Jojoba Oil all over my head. Yes I did. It made me look like I had not bathed in a week, but the scalp relief was instantaneous. My hair was extra silky after I washed it later. The Vitamin E Oil I put on my legs and arms...it did not seem to be as fabulous but still much better than any lotion or cream I had tried. I hope my "finds" help someone else out there with ultra dry skin. I still can't take another day in Washington DC, but at least it is not because of itchy skin!
