It's summer and i have very dry skin on my legs. what causes it and how can i prevent it?

Genetics + age: Sometimes due to medical condition such as low thyroid. There are MANY creams for dry skin. Best are those with ceramides such as Eucerin Eczema Care cream. Best results when used soon after a long soak in water (bath or shower).
