Answers:
I'm a guy who was born with EXTREMELY and SEVERELY dry skin, not only on my legs, but on my whole body!. I've gone through THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS worth of commercial lotion, almost none of which works except temporarily!. I have found two, however, that actually clear the dryness so that it is hard to detect, and those are CUREL (best) and AVEENO (second best)!. But they must be used daily!.

The only thing that has ever worked to actually REMOVE the dry skin so that it is virually undetectable is prescription medication that your doctor or dermotologist can write an RX for, called LAC-HYDRIN, 12% SOLUTION!. (I actually found it online once from a Canadian pharmacy and didn't need an RX!.!.!.typed Lac-Hydrin into Google to find it, but you need a credit card to order)!. It strips the dryness away by "burning" the scaling off, and you do need to use it regularly, just like the other stuff!. And, it's VERY expensive (about $30 a bottle)!.

Your dryness might respond, however, to an over-the-counter version of Lac-Hydrin that's available in 5% SOLUTION form from major drug chains!. It's normally behind the pharmacy counter, though, so you probably have to ask for it!. I've never tried it because I knew I needed the stronger stuff!.

Good luck to you, Buddy!. Hope you're not having to go through the embarrassment I did of having people stare at my skin in gym classes, on the beach, etc!. I finally got it under control, but it took lots of trial and error!.
