Brief Answer:
Moisturizer for dry skin

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Perhaps you have Xerosis - dryness of the skin of your legs. I suggest you to use an intensive moisturizer e.g either Venusia Max lotion or Maxrich lotion (Glenmark pharma). Use twice daily. These are cosmetic preparations and you can get from from a drug store near you.

Regards
