Cracked Skin, Meet Tree Hut Lotion.

You don't have to walk a thousand miles to suffer from cracked skin . Wearing sandals, though sassy and sexy, is known to cause very un-sexy cracked heels, which affects both men and women.  

Cracked skin is often caused by dry skin that is more prominent on the heel's rim. There is a formation of thick skin patches that causes the feet to develop a dark brown or yellow discoloration. The formation of cracks is obvious and may worsen unless one uses body lotion.

Once cracks develop, it becomes painful to support the weigh of the feet. It is important to examine the skin surface of your feet as it helps to detect the symptoms that indicate dryness and cracking of the skin on the feet. The most common signs are flaky or red patches and peeling or cracking of the skin. The skin will itch at times. In extreme cases of cracked feet, there is discharge or even bleeding.  

Sandals are often the main cause of cracked heels as they cannot support the fat pad that is located under the foot and because the skin is exposed to the elements, causing it to become dry. Prolonged standing when wearing sandals, especially on hard floors, can also worsen the development of cracks on the feet.

When the feet are in sandals, it is vital to use strong moisturizing and hydrating lotion or cream on the feet. Use Tree Hut lotion every morning and in the evening, particularly after spending a long time wearing sandals. There are many lotions that have a nice fragrance. However, they are not always effective because they contain excessive water and evaporate after a short time rather than actually absorbing into the skin. This denies the skin on the feet a hold of the needed much needed moisture.

Create a skin care regimen.  One of the best ways of reducing or healing  cracks is by using Tree Hut body lotion on the feet in the evening. After applying Body Butter, try wearing socks to retain moisture. In the morning, you will notice much softer skin.

It is essential to heal the cracks as they are likely to worsen and cause discomfort. Tree Hut's certified organic Shea butter lotion can mend your cracks and make your feet pretty again.
