Ok, as strange as this is going to sound... Cooking lard. Yes ewww, i know. But, my brother was on medication that caused his entire body to dry up and scale. He had to take it for six months, and the doctor told him to use cooking lard on his skin. Don't use it on your face! It required alot of sheet washing, but it worked. He'd put it on, then wrap himself up in a sheet and watch TV for an hour or so. Then he'd go and take a shower and wash it off with some moisturizing body wash. Follow that with a light baby oil, get dressed and he was good to go. He did this at night cause he was embarrassed about the whole thing. But it worked for him.
If it's your scalp, use real mayonaise. Massage it into your scalp then wrap your head in a plastic grocery bag for 15-20 minutes. Wash it out with a good moisture shampoo (or even medicated like Nizoral). You won't need a conditioner, but you can if you want to. It'll make your hair really soft, and helps your scalp. Once a week was generally enough.
On your face... chap stick. Just don't get it in your eyes, and don't use the medicated kind.
