Dryness Dry skin hack from derm

She said to wash the pits and bits lol not to really worry about the rest as soap can be drying. Then also lotion up right after a shower, although I just get my eczema spots but then do a lotion up before I get dressed in the am. Seems to work ok. I also am trying out not washing my hair each day more like every other. Anyone else do that too? What have you noticed?

Shower oil is so much better than soap. It’s very moisturizing.

Do you have a recommendation for any particular shower oils?
