    What is the best moisturizing body lotion?
    I am a guy in my late 40's and having trouble with dry skin from my neck all the way down to my feet.. Ughhh.. I have been through all the "men's" lotions already and none have provided the relief that I am looking for... So I guess I will start on the "women's" body lotions to see if there is a winner there... A question for the ladies, can you please share which lotion you would recommend? Now, I am not concerned about if it is scented or not, as long as it softens my skin...

    Gold Bond. There's even a line for men. My doctor and pharmacist highly recommend Gold Bond. I use it daily with great success. It absorbs quickly and is non-greasy.

    I have tried the Gold Bond for men, but not any of their others...

    What did you think? Ask your druggist for input. He had suggested to me an OTC brand called Remedy, too.

    I have to take care of senior skin on my clients, so I recommend coconut oil which comes in a semi hard form in a jar and when applied turns into a light oil. It lasts far longer then lotions and can be purchased in health food stores, not very expensive, depending of course, where you live.

    A good quality olive oil is also recommended.

    For best results, you should apply after a shower every day until the benefits build up to relieve extreme dry skin.

    I use coconut oil myself, especially in the summer. And no, there is no oily residue from the coconut oil.

    I was not all that happy with the men's Gold Bond lotion, I will check their others
