When skin has gotten too dry to use regular lotion, I've always used olive oil to great success.
I don't normally get dry skin in the winter, but I do get dry lips and the Carmex Moisture Plus is my absolute favorite product. I currently have one in my purse, one on my nightstand, one in my car, and one on my desk at work. LOVE it.

The heels of my feet get really dry and cracked so at night I smother them in Medline Remedy Skin Repair Cream and then put on socks. Medline lotion is really creamy and luxurious and it smells great!

and burts bees lip balm always! keep one stashed everywhere
Basa Body Stick is a must have for super dry skin!
At night after I take a shower, I slather Vaseline all over my feet and then put on socks...helps tremendously with the dry feet!
My fave dry skin solution that I swear by is Fresh's Brown Sugar scrub. Not only is it a great exfoliant, but the oils leave your skin moisturized and soft:)
I also use Bag Balm - (I swear this can has lasted for 2 years and isn't even half gone after using it for me and my 1 year old). Is great for elbows, knees, feet and the occasional lip emergency. Awfully minty though!
For the rest of the body, i'd put lotion on and then wrap it with clear plastic wrap also... works miracles for me!
and just lotion it up and moisturize every part of my body.
In Florida we have too much with the Humidity in the summer and in the winter it is too dry..MOISTURIZE!!!
In Utah it was super cold and I was on accutane so vaseline and scrubbing were life savers!
The other item that everyone must have is Rosebud Salve. It's awesome for lips, cuticles, etc.
For my face I use moisturizer 2 times a day...once after I shower, and then again after i wash my face before bed.
For my lips I have a pot of Carmex in my car and that saves me!! I've recently invested in the Carmex Moisture Plus lip balm and I have one in ever place imaginable (purse, car, bedroom, bathroom, my boyfriends house and car) I tend to misplace my lip balms so I keep them everywhere so I always have one =)
i also use a wet toothbrush to buff dry, flaky skin from my lips before putting on chapstick.
It is also always good to apply some Carmex or Petroleum jelly on your lips before bed so your lips don't dry up at night.
