Abstract
Fifty men and women, aged twenty to sixty-one, with dry skin of the legs, were treated over a 4 week period, comparing the effects of 'hard-milled' versus 'dry-skin' (triethanolamine) soaps on the condition of the stratum corneum commonly known as dry skin. Subjective preferences of the subjects heavily favored the dry skin soap. Objective grading of skin changes showed a trend in favor of the dry skin soap.
