I assumed you were probably correct that the student's skin split  
from being dry.

I think most people, including myself, tend to not drink enough  
water, particularly at this time of year.  The skin is moisturized  
from the inside out.  Skin creams don't add moisture, they work more  
as a sealing agent to prevent moisture evaporation from the skin into  
the air.  But if we're not getting enough water, they don't actually  
do much.

I discovered for myself that the daily recommendation for water (8  
glasses), isn't enough, especially during winter.  For me,  
insufficient hydration also leads to back muscle spasms.
