I live in a very dry climate (a desert, actually).

First thing: see a dermatologist, if you can. Those "little bumps" can be a symptom of something. Get it ruled out.

I spray a light body oil all over me when I'm finished showering, before I towel off. Neutrogena makes a sesame oil that isn't terribly expensive, and absorbs quickly. There are others, I'm sure. I let it absorb a little bit and then pat dry. It may not be hypoallergenic enough for you, so check the label - but it's Neutrogena & that's what they advertise (that their products are hypoallergenic).

Then I slather on lotion. I like AmLactin & get it at Costco; it's in your price range. It fits the hypoallergenic requirement. I let the lotion absorb and then make sure it's all rubbed in before I start dressing. This routine works & has kept me from dreaded alligator skin feet (endemic to AZ, sadly).
