Try using a loaf to take some of the dead skin off. Also use the oatmeal lotions. ..I forgot who makes it...but it helps to realive the itching that comes with it. Lastly try a facial scrub

I am almost 12 weeks, and my hands are really dry, and i have patches on my face that are dry. and on other parts of my face, i am full of acne ( Not fun) I assume it is part of the pregnancy, as I never had any of this prior. I have tried putting lotion (thickly layered on) on my hands and then placing a cotten sock or if you have them, a cotten glove on before going to bed It has worked wonders for me. When it comes to the face, I just kinda have to deal with it, since i wash my face for the acne, and if i put lotion on it, it seems to make my acne worse. :/ Hope this helps.
