5 min read
Elbows and knees dry out faster because of friction and thicker skin texture. Consistent targeted moisture can improve softness over time.
Quick summary
- Elbows and knees dry out faster because of friction and thicker skin texture. Consistent targeted moisture can improve softness over time.
- Why elbows and knees stay rough: These areas face repeated pressure from clothing, movement, and contact with surfaces. Skin here is often thicker, so lightweight lotions may fade too quickly.
- Day and night routine that works: In daytime, massage in a small amount of whipped cream after bathing. At night, seal rough patches with a denser balm layer and reapply consistently for 1-2 weeks.

Keep in mind
- Patch test first and increase use gradually based on comfort.
- Skincare supports moisture and comfort but is not a cure for medical conditions.
- If symptoms persist, worsen, or become painful, consult a licensed clinician.
