I am not a lot of help here because I have extremely oily skin. However, my daughter has really dry skin so I am always trying to find something that works. I have not tried this, but when I was at my sister inlaws house over the holidays she told me she uses coconut oil, like the kind you cook with. Both her and my mother inlaw say it works great. So, I am going to get some to try on my daughters skin and see if it works.
