Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion
I live in in Las Vegas, NV (i.e. hot, dry and lots of icky, ashy ankles), and the greatest threat to my sanity (aside from coconuts, wire bras and mornings) is trying to retain any sense of moisture to my face and body.

Jergen’s Ultra Healing Extra Dry Skin Moisturizer

Body Shop Coconut Body Butter
In case if you don’t know what body butter is, it is a very thick moisturizing lotion, of the consistency and texture close to that of butter. Body butters are usually more expensive than lotions, they are the “pamper yourself” kind of product that you occasionally splurge on.
