Best moisturizer?

Best moisturizer?

I've noticed with the drop in temperature that DD's skin is getting a bit dry, especially on her cheeks which she's been scratching due to what I assume is itchy, dry skin. What's your favorite cream/moisturizer? Would like something that absorbs quick and isn't super greasy. I've been putting Aquaphor on her cheeks which definitely helps but its so greasy and messy - gets in her hair, blah. Any other helpful hints as the winter approaches?

Best moisturizer?

I slather Vaseline on my DS before bed. It's disgusting but helps to keep him moisturized - he has such dry skin and it prone to eczema in the winter. We will also be running his humidifier starting this weekend.

Refined coconut oil. I stand my kids up in the bath before I take them out, rub some between my hands, and rub them down. Then pat them dry. It gives the skin no chance to dry out and it isn't greasy at all if you apply it that way.

Where do you buy this? Is this different than just regular coconut oil? Thanks!

Refined has no smell of coconut that's the only difference
You can buy it anywhere- stop and shop has it, any supermarket, BJs sells a big tub of it.

Yep, it just had no flavor or scent. We get huge tubs online bc we use it for moisturizing and cooking.

Vani Cream worked better for us than Cerave.
