Finally, a cream that gets rid of that scaly dry skin on your feet

Finally, a cream that gets rid of that scaly dry skin on your feet

After years of scraping, filing, bathing and moisturising to try to get rid of severe dry skin on your feet, there is a really simple solution in the form of an AHA cream.

Nobody likes talking about feet but this discovery is worth a few minutes of cringing. We need to talk about dry skin on your footsies. It's an issue we should all be addressing around this time of year. It's almost time for flip flops and sandals and nobody needs to be subjected to the ugly sight of scaly paws. So, do your friends a favour and get your feet in shape.

The thought of the skin on your feet being so dry it catches on the material in your socks grates on my nerves (to put it lightly). But it's a common condition and it can occur on different body parts, too. Most often, you see this kind of cracked, dry skin on elbows, knees and heels. And, thank God, NeoStrata has a wonder cream that comes in a nice large 100ml tube so you can slather it on to problem areas.

I applied it daily for ten days and could see a huge difference. The dry flaky skin on my heels is completely gone and the skin is considerably smoother. After three weeks of continued use, the hyperkeratosis should be completely gone.

The cream has 20% AHA or Alpha Hydroxy Acids and it's suitable for sensitive skin so it's non-irritating. It also has beeswax and skin conditioning oils to instantly sooth and smooth problem dry skin. The texture feels like a mixture of Vaseline and a thick, cool cream. It's said to make a significant difference to heavily calloused skin in three weeks. I saw the difference in 10 days which is pretty impressive. I reckon in another week my feet will be ready to face the world.
