Hello! There is a lotion called Ureacin-20 Cream it cost about 20.00 a jar. You can find it online or at you local pharmacy. Drink plenty of waterSmile  Are you blood sugars out of control? if so, you want to make sure you keep your bg's in control, that maybe what is causing the dry skin.

This has been in my Family for 4 generations it's called- Mother's Friend- although you can get it form walgreens, they might have to order it for you, it comes in a cream and a lotion but the lotion is more like an oil. It goes on very easy melts right in and take very little of it and smells great. The feeling lasts a long time and does not feel greasy as long as you use it sparingly.

My father has Diabetes type 2 and he also has problem on the skin: itching. One doctor suggested him to use Sebamed's Body Milk and now he still uses it. I must buy him 2 bottles/month. Sebamed can be bought at the drug store, having lotion and soap. Body Milk is quite concentrate. One bottle cost around $12 sold in Bangkok.
