Why is dry skin a problem?
Whatās the problem with a little dry skin, you ask? Dry hands and dry feet are more than just uncomfortable. They can actually lead to more serious skin problems. Hereās why you should care for the skin on your hands and feet.
What can happen when you donāt care for dry skin
Here are some potential results from letting dry skin go untended:
- Eczema. Excessive dryness can lead to the development or exacerbation of uncomfortable and unsightly eczema symptoms.
- Skin infection. Dry skin can become hard and cracked and even lead to the skin breaking and becoming an open wound, thus exposing subdermal layers. This leaves you vulnerable to bacteria and can lead to serious skin infections.
- Whole body health. Your skin is your first defense against pollutants and irritants and even plays a role in keeping you hydrated. If your skin is cracked and compromised, it canāt do its job.

How our micro-oxygen hand and foot salve works so well
Why our micro-oxygen hand and foot salve works so well
- Squalene oil. Our non-toxic hand and foot salve was formulated using squalane oil (sugar cane oil) which absorbs very quickly. This is key for people who want intense moisture without a lingering sticky or greasy film.
- Intense oil phase. The salve has a slightly more prolonged āoil phase.ā We formulated with avocado oil, squalane, and caprylic triglyceride to extend the period of nourishment beyond what a lighter and more quickly-absorbing body lotion can offer. This provides intense moisture and protection.
- Candelilla wax. The addition of candelilla wax into our hand and foot salve helps form a protective and virtually unnoticeable coating on the skin to keep moisture in and irritants out.
Whether you suffer from dry hands, dry feet, dry elbows, dry knees or all of the above, our micro-oxygen hand and foot salve is the solution you have been seeking. And you can try it, risk-free. Like all our products, this one is non-toxic, cruelty-free, and formulated without pesky irritants. Add it to your skincare routine today.
