Posted by M.I.C. (996 days ago)

What is the best way to combat the dryness! I have never used moisturiser before and usually take 2 showers a day. Is there something i can use that will prevent me turning into a McFlake? Any oil etc etc.And i dont want anything faffy smelling!

Due to an atopic predisposition, my skin is extremely dry in regardless of the weather.I use Eucerin Body Cream which contains 10% of urea and is frangrance-free. It helps to rehydrate the skin sufficiently. The problem is that you probably have to bring it from overseas coz they don't carry this product into China. Another option is Cetaphil which can be easily found in any pharmacy or Beijing United Family Hospital.

Try QV or Cetaphil as mentioned.

Use soap-free shower gel and coat yourself with a good layer of QV repair lotion.
