Which is better for dry, itchy skin: a cocoa butter based lotion or an oatmeal based lotion?
oatmeal based i would have to say
Reply:Oatmeal products tend to soothe itchy skin better, like the Aveeno line of products.
Reply:oatmeal for day and coco butter for night. be beware, most coco butter lotions just have the scent, not the actual emollient. try a body butter featuring a blend of coco and Shea butters, one with avocado oil is best.
Reply:I would say cocoa butter since it's greasier, but oatmeal does have calming effects. Either one will work.
Reply:oatmeal
Reply:Well i would suggest that you should use cocoa butter because it will make your skin very halthey and soft.And the reason for you itch is that you don't even put lotion on.
Reply:Look for one with olive oil in it. Before drying off after your shower. Rub the lotion into your skin: Then leave it on for a minute, before lightly patting yourself dry. And start eating lots of fruits and veggies. Load up on berries, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, etc. They're good for the skin. Stay away from the drive-through fast food joints. All the grease dehydrates you.
