Which lotion is best for very dry or cracked skin?

Urea-based formulas are the usual recommendation. The Eucerin Advanced Repair Lotion is urea-enriched, unscented, and carries a 4.7-star average across more than 50,000 ratings, with reviewers citing relief for rough, flaky areas. CeraVe's intensive and urea formulas target the same problem, though those listings carried no rating data in our pool.
