petrolatum is underappreciated as a moisturizer imo. Too cheap for a good marketing budget.
Most of the expensive moisturizers is going to be 80-90% petrolatum and a bunch of crap that's more likely to irritate than help (but smells nice!).
Don't get me started on "non-greasy" formulations... it's the greasiness that makes it work!
Pro-tip: put your moisturizer on just after washing. You want to trap in all that water!
One search on Reddit and many people just said to use petrolium gel. Bam fixed it up in two days! Costs me about $3 a year to control this now.
