If my skin gets unreasonably dry, I apply a no-name unscented moisturizer. I've had great success with the bottom shelf stuff in the past - I'm of the opinion that the more expensive ones do essentially the same job. Then again, I've known people (mostly female) who swear by the expensive stuff.
The women in my family are all very fond of stuff called Bag Balm. It's actually meant to be used on a cow's udder (hence the name) but apparently works as a very effective moisturizer. I'm not sure on the availability of it though; depending on where you are it could be a bit hard to find.
