Re: Lurking is over...

Thanks for more suggestions. Have been using Udderly Smooth w/urea that the Onc Nurse gave me, works great!!! I'm almost finished peeling, back, stomach and 1/2 thighs left. Best part of this peeling is the skin underneath is like a baby's :D

I have some issues I could use some advice on but I'll ...
