Smile Ha ha ha

Im prejudice in this department, I recommend Mary Kay Satin Hands and Body moisturizer... so does Pam! Also they have body buffing stuff that is awesome for sloughing off those dead cells and rejuvinating your new skin! (Im a rep and so is Pam's daughter in law) Alot of folks also recommend lotions with oatmeal in it. Good luck!

I agree - go the Mary Kay route!!

OK, so I'm a rep too!!

I also found turning down the shower to a little cooler water helped.

I like the satin hands. It works very well, and I don't sell the stuff, so you know I'm not blowing smoke!
