Tried

Selenium

After 10 weeks on Selenium, I'd say it made a modest difference to my skin dryness and itching. The change was there but subtle. Not sure if I'll continue long-term.

Disappointing experience with Selenium. My dry and ageing skin didn't improve and the side effects outweighed any benefit. Back to square one unfortunately.
