Scratching myself at Night after showering!

2-3 days after showering, I’ll scratch myself the whole night. Anyone knows any good lotions or creams for an ultra-dry and sensitive body skin?
 
Some good lotions are made by Cetaphil and Aveeno. They make sensitive skin body washes too.

Perhaps the soap you wash with is drying out or irritating your skin, try a gentle, dermatologist tested body wash. Also, if you take long or hot baths or use bubble bath or bath salts you might be drying out your skin which could leave you feeling itchy.

Lastly, have you changed laundry detergent or shampoo brands? Sometimes these things can cause a reaction.
 
Yeah I was going to suggest body wash, I can't use bar soap because I am allergic.
I use Nivea or Dove they seem to be okay.
 
I like Kirk's Castile bar soap. I'm quite sensitive myself but that works great for me.
