My skin is like paper. The weight fluctuation doesn't help either - my skin literally bursts, so I have stretch marks that turned into elevated scars. I'm still trying to figure out what to do - it sometimes seems better if I don't use lotion at all. I can't wear hard clothing anymore, so I've thrown out all my jeans. That's all I can say for now - sorry I can't offer more helpful advice :/
