Dry season skin in Gokwe
What changed when a household in the Midlands swapped a thin lotion for a whipped double butter through the dry months.
London, United Kingdom · ROOTED
Winter skin in a heated London flat
Hard water and central heating are a difficult combination. How a richer butter held up where lotion did not.
The conditions
A London winter with the heating on constantly, plus hard water, left skin tight within an hour of showering. Light lotions absorbed instantly and stopped working just as quickly.
What we suggested
ROOTED applied within a minute of showering, while skin was still damp, and a jar of RWENDO hand butter kept by the desk for hands that were washing far more often than the rest of the body.
What changed
Skin stayed comfortable through the evening instead of tightening up, and the split skin around knuckles settled. The hand butter got used far more than expected, which is usually the case for anyone working indoors in winter.
