What are you using to combat dry skin this winter?

I use Kiehl's cream de corps mixed with one of four body lotions I keep
on the bathroom counter, the LM clementine or butter on my legs and
arms. I still like Pre de Provence hand cream with shea butter or
L'Occitane Immortelle hand cream, and Kiehl's lip balm #1 on my lips.
For my feet I wear socks 80% of the time and, otherwise, use B&BW's foot
cream, vaseline, or anything else I find in the cupboard.

Aveeno body wash with oatmeal in the shower and then using Curel or
Nivea body lotion. Also, alternate with a B and B Works cucumber blend
lotion. Aveeno hand cream (one with the purple top), love this
brand.

I'm using Jergen's original moisturizing lotion (cherry–almond scent).
I'd forgotten how well it works – it even clears up any little
patches of eczema I get.
I also LOVE Body Shop Coconut Body Butter and just bought a new
container of it the other day.

For body & hands, large bottle with dispenser of Kiss My Face in
Peaches & Cream from Trader Joe's is sitting by my bedside. This stuff
smells wonderful and is rich without being greasy and pore–clogging.
For face, my usual Oil of Olay – the only thing my sensitive face tends
to like (besides Clinique stuff, but I tend to be lazier about getting
to the department store than to the drugstore). Apply the daily OoO
w/SPF in the morning; use the beta hydroxy version at nighttime to
control winter flakies.

I hate to admit that I don't use anything fancy like Kiehl's or anything.
But I alternate between a few lotions. I like White Rain's Cocoa Butter
lotion (a steal at one buck a bottle!!), Burt's Bees Milk & Honey Lotion,
Burt's Bees Baby Bee Buttermilk lotion, Suave Cocoa Butter lotion, and
Equate Cherry–Almond lotion (Walmart's knock off of Jergens). For my hands,
I totally rely on the Burts Bees Shea hand cream!! This handcream is the
best I have ever tried. Seeing that I am listing off all of these lotions
must make me kind of a lotion–ho (lol). I just like variety!!

No. Fragrance free is more strict and is truly free of perfumes. thought they meant the same thing.

For body, I'm using two different products (not at the same time):
Lulu Guinness Cast A Spell body cream
V–Tonic body cream from Fresh (more herbal and not as strong)
I'm not using any facial lotions yet. My skin is oily and I won't need
it until it gets much colder and the heat's on all the time.

Curel Ultra Healing "with extra skin hydrators" (blue tube with red
stripes). Unscented, non–greasy, and one application takes my very dry
(to the point of bleeding) skin back to normal.
There's also a Suave with oatmeal lotion I've been using too (b/c the
Curel is too expensive for normal moisturizing).

I used to think that they were same, but then someone explained to me that
"unscented" means that there is no detectable fragrance (i.e. It's possible
that a chemical may have been added to neutralize an unpleasant odor that's
a natural byproduct of the process), while "fragrance free" means that no
fragrances were added (i.e. The mix of ingredients to create the product may
naturally have a scent, but no ingredient was added purely for scent
purposes). Note that I've also since seen explanations switching the 2
terms.
