Hi , is the dryness on the kid just restricted to the cheeks and seasonal or it's red itchy and present other parts of body too ? If it's atopic dermatitis you l need a different course of treatment, would suggest you to use zinc based creams for you toddler and ph balanced soaps , avoid steroids and also powders.
