keratin... soft fingernail stuff.... I have it too... a real problem in winter for me, but all disappears as soon as I get outside in the sun in spring..... don'tcha hate when they get caught in your clothes and make you jump?... *smile*....

Try using coconut oil as a body moisturizer. Exfoliate in the shower, then spread on a thin layer when you get out. It has helped me.
