Shea Butter for Dry Cracked Feet
|
To moisturize and heal dry, cracked skin, apply a moderate amount of Karite Gold several times every day. After you have coated an area of your skin with shea butter, spend some time making sure that the shea butter works its way down under the surface of your skin. Move your fingers in a circular motion as you apply the shea butter.
Dry, Cracked, And Rough Feet: Treatment and Protection
Dry, cracked feet (xerosis) is a condition that occurs primarily on the bottom and outside edges of the heels of your feet. In some cases the cracks can be quite deep, but difficult to see if the dry skin has built up around them. Some people are more prone to dry skin on the heels and soles of their feet than others, but almost everyone experiences foot cracks at some point in their lives.
These foot problems occur because of the body’s inability to provide natural oils and moisture to the area and the skin’s reduced capacity to retain moisture. Research shows that the problem has a variety of causes including aging, inactive sweat glands, inadequate water intake, poor eating habits, harsh chemical/detergent based soaps, obesity, long periods of standing, and exposure to weather via open backed shoes and sandals.
If neglected and allowed to persist, untreated cracks may deepen to the extent that the dermis layer of the skin is affected. Feet may then become extremely uncomfortable, making standing or walking very painful. Deep cracks may eventually bleed and become infected, leading to more serious foot problems. Especially in the case of diabetics, or persons with impaired vascular sufficiency, treatment by a doctor may be necessary.
Shea butter is a wonderful agent for revitalizing our skin cells so that they regain their moisture retention capacity. Unrefined shea butter not only contains a high moisturizing fraction, but also contains an extraordinarily high healing fraction. To enhance the shea butter's ability to soften the skin on the bottom and sides of your feet and to heal the cracking, we have infused it with 2essential oils: patchouli and sandalwood.
