What's the best body lotion for very dry, cracked skin?

Across the reviewers we read, two formulas dominate the dry-skin conversation: Eucerin Advanced Repair (ceramide-based, fragrance-free) and Nivea Intense Healing (glycerin, niacinamide, pro-vitamin B5). Both draw heavy positive consensus in r/SkincareAddiction threads for restoring the moisture barrier. For genuinely cracked skin, reviewers often recommend layering a urea- or lactic-acid lotion underneath an occlusive.
