Answer 1

Don't use baby oil it drys your skin out.

Olive oil is the very best natural moisturizer and doesn't wash off as easily as lotion so it's better than lotion for your situation.

Good luck

Answer 2

Yep, Olive oil works. Also, in a pinch I use stick or pot style lip balm (Like chapstick or Carmex)

Answer 3

first drink lots of water use DOVE  soap ............. use baby oil before going to sleep......... there are my lotions also in the market try them if u want

Answer 4

use coconut oil or any cooking oil or cream(milk), or pure ghee at night so tht it will work for the night and things will improve

Answer 5

hair conditioner

Answer 6

Do you have any baby oil handy? If not you can even use Olive Oil or Vegetable oil. Its a little greasier than regular lotion but it works just the same if not better!  

Answer 7

Baby oil, Vaseline, Olive oil if you can ignore the smell

Look around the house and you may find so many things until you get some lotion  

Answer 8

If you have Vaseline, it traps in the moisture (but if you wash it off, youll have to put more on.... over and over again)
