Hi Larelle,

I was a dry skinned vegetarian too. Once I got the gluten out-(wheat,
barley, rye and oats), my skin got better. When I accidently have gluten
(or sunflower seed butter) my lips get chaffed and my skin gets dry and itchy.
Dairy products and soy have similar proteins to gluten so could produce
similar symptoms.

All the best,
Susan
