It is important to keep our feet well hydrated and apply cream regularly. But how often is regularly? We suggest applying cream daily to the feet after showering or applying cream to the feet when getting into bed therefore you won’t be slipping and sliding around the house or in your shoes.
When applying cream to the feet, it’s important to apply cream to the whole foot EXCEPT for in-between the toes which wants to stay dry. We want to keep in-between the toes dry as the cream won’t get absorbed well and sometimes can sit there and cause the skin to become macerated and breakdown.
