    i'm not sure if moisturizing will help with hanging skin. That is just simply your body not capable of decreasing the skin at the same rate of rapid weight loss. Moisturizing could help from getting stretch marks but instead of baby oil, vitamin E oil is probably more effective.

    If you are out in the sun exercising then look for a moisturizer with an SPF of 30. This was recommended by my dermatologist.

    I would try something for anti-aging. There are lots of products with ingredients that help stimulate natural collagen production. I like natural products as opposed to ones with tons of chemicals. You should take a look at the products on yestocarrots.com.

    I refuse to put anything with chemicals on my skin. I use a ton of natural 100% bio shea butter or extra virgin coconut oil. I am told over and over again how nice my skin is :)

    ya its hard and it is expensive. Occitane makes one but its small containers

    coconut oil on the other hand you can just get at the natural food store. I use it on everything, my body, face, hair, cooking :)
