Q: Body Soaps???

     Winter is upon us here in Idaho and I have a terrible time with dry skin!  I've also had lots of trouble with allergic reactions to body soaps (rash, flaking/ peeling, etc.).  What is the best moisturizing body soap???  Is a more natural soap better???  Is it better to go without any dyes or perfumes???

Dove is actually a moisturizing soap but there are glycerine soaps that can also help.  another key is to slather on moisturizer when you are still damp and trap the water in the skin.
