Hey,
Well a few treatments that will work absolute wonders on dry skin are:

Vaseline
Aloe vera
Palmers cocoa butter lotion

Spread a thin layer over the infected parts of your skin.

I speak from experience.

Cheers.

I had extremely dry skin on my arms and legs. I tried every kind of good smelling, fancy dry skin lotion. I went to the dermatologist for a different reason, but while there I asked what I could do about my dry skin.
He said, hands down, the best lotion I could use is Cetaphil. It's at any drug store like Walgreens or Target and since I've used it I've really seen a difference.
showers can really dry out your skin too so if you buy this lotion put it on right after the shower.
It's good stuff, hope you try it!

yeah use the dry skin lotion..and apply it three times a day

you said it was from tanning??
is it sunburn?
if the skin is peeling..then you should take nice showers so that all the dead skin cells don't cling to your body

i know it isn't the greatest thought in the world, but it's true!!

i hope that helped!!
please feedback at my site

Aloe is good for burns but I find it kind of dries the skin out otherwise.

About all you can do is just keep the lotion on.
It really soaks in good of you put it on immediately following a hot shower. :)
