I love trying products that the Peas have recommended over the years. Have we had a winter skin care thread (I don't recall seeing one)? I, specifically, need something for my pitiful dry hands! My cuticles are terrible. I have Butter London Holiday Handbag, but I need to be more diligent in using it. I am also obsessed with exfoliation. I love body scrubs, but I had forgotten about my body brush (another pea recommendation), so I need to start doing that again. Let us know what's been working for your skin! |

I bought a body brush based on Pea recommendations too. I LOVE it!
For a body exfoliator, I really love the Origins Modern Friction for the body. The Modern Friction for the face is even BETTER!
Im a big fan of TJ's body butter although I only use it at night because it has a beachy smell that I really don't want on me at work.

My favorite, favorite hand cream is Royal Apothic. It comes in a big 4 oz tube and lasts forever. I get it at Anthro but you can get it on line too. I've tried all kinds, Crabtree & Evelyn, L'Occitane and for me, Royal Apothic is the best. My hands feel soft and velvety, not greasy and the fragrance..ahh. The scent I love looks like it might be discontinued, Balmoral Rain..wahh. I'm not sure what scent I"ll pick up next but I'm definitely sticking with this brand. I'm also a huge fan of Lush's Buffy Bar. It is a very emollient bar with scrubby particles..it's great in the shower for my flaky shins, knees, elbows. It's scrubby but not too rough, and after I rinse it leaves a nicey lightly greasy feel. Perfect for this time of year. I love those sugar body scrubs but they are fussy to use because inevitably, half the goop winds up on the shower floor rather than on my legs. With the Buffy Bar, you just scrub with the actual bar itself. LOVE that stuff. I buy it for all my friends.  |

I don't have any of those stores near me.  That buffy bar sounds, great. I have several tubs of the body sugar scrubs, but I'm like you...their are a little too messy. SmartyPants, I have a Clarisonic, but I love to scrub my face, too. (Told y'all I have an obsession)I also have a Christmas gift card to Ulta, I'll have to see if they sell Origins. |

Salax Nylon Cloth. I do manual exfoliation and then chemical exfoliation (DDF Glycolic) on alternating days. I can no longer use a regular wash cloth it feels like a tickle

I'm reading this with interest. My husband's legs get so dry and itchy. Regular lotion doesn't seem to be doing much to help.

I am in love with Aveda's hand cream right now. I also love their Beautifying oil for hands, face, hair body.

Olan!! Yes!!! I agree. I exfoliate daily. I use a loofah from my country that is rather coarse and polish off with the Salux thereafter.
Jose Maran argan oil cream, and argan oil are my other two recommendations.
