I personally haven't used it for dry skin, but for about everything else! If in doubt about what to use, I go to ARC, and it always works! Like cuts, bruises (plus lavender), cuticles and well, I can't remember how many times I've gone to that little blue jar! Since I turned 80 this month, I guess I have the right to forget now & then. I do know that ALL CW products are the bestest, and when they say they work for a specific issue, they do and so much more. Thank you CW for keeping your products pure and consistent with every order. And thanks for the extras in every shipment too!
