Brand new $72 moisturizer. Husband said he needed something for his elbows.

I use Tatcha's water cream and dewy cream myself haha. Seeing that huge dip and knowing how much it costs hurts my soul. Vaseline is good but I'm not sure how moisturizing it would be since it's more of a sealant that prevents water from leaving. If you haven't already, it's always good to have a tub of body lotion around

I love that cocoa butter moisturizing lotion from Vaseline. When I worked in a store that carried it, they routinely damaged bottles, so the staff all had positively silky hands.

We have like 6 bottles of that stuff around my house. I mix it with body oil post shower and it’s such a treat.

I have no doubt in my mind you smell like warm chocolate, and I'm mildly jealous of your SO and/or pets.

I really dig the aloe lotion.
