It seems I am developing what looks pretty much likes scales on my legs.. presumably because theyre dry. The thing is i use lotion every day for dry skin and still it does nothing... is there something more I can do to rid myself of this dry looking skin?
Thanks for any help

Eat a balance diet, and things that has lots of vitamin E in them. Drink lots of fluid, and exercise, sweats do wonder for skin.

change soaps, wash your legs better... If your legs are scaly, then it might mean you aren't washing all that dead skin off of them when you shower. That, or maybe your legs are seeing too much daylight or the total opposite.

But if it's enough of a problem for you to be asking, then I would definately pay a visit to the dermatologist.

Dry skin is a sure sign of lack of EFAs(Essential Fatty Acids). Go to your local health food store and get some Flax Seed Oil and Evening Primrose Oil.
