    imfixingahole asked: I have a friend who recently had a few spots of skin cancer removed from her face. Those spots are now extremely dry, so her doctor recommended a few moisturizers, all of which burn her skin when she applies them. What would you recommend as a natural alternative?

    I would definitely recommend using oil instead of moisturizer (filled with who-knows-what ingredients). I’ve used almond oil on dry, cracked skin before and it’s very soothing. The brand my mom and I have stuck to for years is Aura Cacia almond oil, and sometimes I add some liquid vitamin E or aloe vera.. or both! She just has to massage it onto her face every day/night and it should rehydrate her skin.
