Dry, dehydrated skin is something that none of us want; in fact we spend a lot of money buying lotions and potions designed to help solve the issue of dry body skin, which at its worst can be flaky, itchy and in some cases sensitive. Of course we want products that deliver more than just a temporary coverup, lets face it there’s an abundance of body balms that only provide Short term relief – they look good, they smell good but they lack substance, so its not long before your dry skin returns.
Here are two fab options depending on your budget that make a difference.
