It works, but the texture is thick and gross and sticky. Is the Cetaphil cream less so? I would definitely spring for some if it beats Eucerin in the head-to-head nasty texture showdown.

The only thing I found working is not clothes but staying indoors between hours of 11-4 or hit pool or beach to cool down.

But I confess, I can't handle the heat. Do you have similar strategies for dealing with the summer heat? Stephanie - Good luck finding the CuddlDuds. I love mine!

I went to a dermatologist because my skin was so dry (even in the summer...), so between a prescription lotion and the Restoraderm lotions from Cetaphil, I'm doing a lot better. Thanks for the suggestions on the under-layers. I'll have to check those out. They looks super cute and comfy! I’ll second that vote for Cetaphil products.

So I guess warmth before fashion in this case :) But you are right some things it's worth spending money on they will last forever and serve the purpose because lets' face it sometimes that 19.99 jacket just wont do :) Thank havens I live in south and I do not have to worry much about the crazy winter weather and ugly UGGS (they are mighty ugly) But from what I hear (from my friends from western NY where I lived for a while) they are warm and comfy.
