Best lotion for dry skin on a toddler?

My DD is 13 months old and I have been noticing that her legs and arms are very very dry.

What lotion do you use?

I'm cheap.
I'm frugal.
I RESIST the popular norms.
I don't follow the name brand bandwagons.

pfft...

Came right down to it and California Baby (especially the stuff with Calendula)is the only thing that helps my kiddo. So I suck it up and give her the good stuff. Both bath and lotions.

See...I've been using the California Baby Bath Wash and I feel like that is what is drying her skin out.

I use the J&J lotion because from what I read on the label it didn't have any of the toxins that the wash has but I think I need a thicker lotion.

My DS's dermatologist told me to use CeraVe cream.

Ironic. J&J dried AJ out. *shrug* I do use CerVae as well but only as spot treatment. During winter I slather my kid California baby and/or Aquafor.

Aveeno did nothing for her

aquaphor is the only thing that works for my almost 3 year old. She gets very bad patches on her tummy and either legs or back.
