ksmithWinter in the Midwest=Dry skin. Go figure.
My elbows are the worst, for whatever reason. Heels are bad, too. None of my usual moisture remedies were working well, and I'd resigned myself to the usual winter flaking.
Last week, I did my daily click on the Breast Cancer Site. the click-through took me to the usual product offerings. One of them led to a Burt's Bees product page. I liked their lip balm, so went ahead and checked things out. They offered a winter hand care kit, and a foot care kit, among other things. I decided the give the foot care kit a try because it didn't cost too much. It contained Coconut Foot Creme, which didn't sound too promising--I like coconut, but not in skin care--but I was feeling experimental.
The Creme arrived. It's not really creme-y. If you're familiar with A&D ointment, it's kinda like that, except it's the color of earwax and has a coconutty/rosemary/pepperminty smell. Vegetable glycerin, so it's not too greasy.
The stuff is nice. Works a treat on my elbows.
So I went to the Burt's Bees' site, and I can't find it. I did find it at Drugstore.com. I should probably play it safe and load up in case it's been discontinued.
