aquaphor: Aquaphpr, vaseline, cerave sa lotion or u-lactin creme, for the feet are good. For the lips only use vaseline or aquaphor. Also limit the use of soap.

Moisturize: Usually, the key is to moisturize. Initially i just tell patients to moisturize as usuallythey are not. If they are and it is not working then i would look to prescribe something stronger...For feet i like products that contain at least 40% urea when the typical moisturizers are not working.
