    It is so goddamn dry in here I would like to claw my skin off.

    Rubbing the lotion on its skin does not help.

    Have one. It doesn't do much. The air just drinks it up.

    I've heard rubbing vinegar into the dry areas helps. I've never actually tried this, so...

    Have you tried E45 lotion? My skin gets really dry in the winter but that stuff helps so much, no itching. Also, vaseline stuff for hands is really good, I think my hands would fall off without it. :p

    I have no idea what you are smoking, but I have skin issues and this happens to me every winter. I haven't been invaded by floating bugs...just aliens.
