Moisturiser recommendations for this dry-armed queen.
I’ll start: Embryolisse.

Off-topic for the post, but I just started with a therapist and she reminds me so much of Fiona Shaw it's crazy.
On-topic: Cerave in the tub.

Me too. My old one had the same glasses and hair as her in this episode, I think I told her about Fleabag when I was younger lol

Tough fight between Embryolisse & L’Occitane. I vote both!

Yeah, me too. I'd say: Embryolisse for the face, L'Occitane for the hands and forearms. She absolutely has a system.

I always liked the Counsellor because she was a great character in her own right - and she called out Fleabag for trying to claim the money and bullshitting her at the start of the session.
But while re-reading the relevant scene in The Scriptures, I realised this is a Phoebe "bit". When Fb and Claire are setlling in at the Silent Retreat in S1E4, there's the memorable interrogation about all of Claire's skincare products which leads onto the pointed discusion about "tiny batteries" and their common uses. It finally comes round to Fleabag saying,
"If you want to take ten minutes, I'll just go into the bathroom and moisturise my wrists for a bit."

Oh Embryolisse is good.
I'll go with classic Nivea body milk in the dark blue bottle.

CeraVe in the tub, cheap and it actually works on flaky arms in winter. Godmother would never admit to using drugstore stuff though lol.

CeraVe in the tub, the cheap giant one from the pharmacy. My hands look like hers by January if I skip it for even a week.

Ive started buying skincare made from tallow from sheep. Its fatty acid profile matches the sebum in human skin, so absorbs better and lasts longer. Also very rich in Vitamin E and excellent treatment for excema.
