What is Hydra Heel Balm 250ml?
Hydra Heel Balm 250ml is a rich, intensive moisturising balm specially formulated for very dry, rough and calloused skin. It is particularly suitable for heels and feet, but can also be used on other dry areas such as hands, knees or elbows. The hypo-allergenic heel balm combines a high level of urea with lanolin and other super-fatting agents to help soften hard skin, support the natural repair process and leave the skin feeling smoother and more comfortable.
Dry, cracked heels can be caused by many factors, including standing for long periods, walking barefoot, wearing open shoes, cold or dry weather and not moisturising the feet regularly. By using Hydra Heel Balm 250ml consistently, many people find that the skin on the heels becomes more supple and less prone to roughness and visible cracks.
Key benefits of Hydra Heel Balm 250ml
- Intensive heel balm with urea (25%) to help soften thick, hard skin.
- Lanolin and other emollients help lock in moisture and support the skin barrier.
- Suitable for very dry, cracked and calloused heels, feet, hands, knees or elbows.
- Rich, non-runny texture designed to stay on the skin while it absorbs.
- Can be used as a daily moisturiser or as a more intensive overnight treatment.
- Hypo-allergenic formulation designed to be gentle on most skin types.
Hydra Heel Balm 250ml is ideal for people whose heels feel rough, look flaky or show signs of surface cracking. Regular use, together with gentle exfoliation and appropriate footwear, can help maintain softer, more comfortable feet.
How to use Hydra Heel Balm 250ml
Unless otherwise directed by your Healthcare Professional, you can use the heel balm as follows:
- Wash feet thoroughly with warm water and a mild cleanser. Rinse and pat dry, paying special attention to the areas between the toes.
- Gently remove loose, flaky skin with a soft foot file or pumice stone if recommended by your Healthcare Professional. Do not file over open cracks that are painful or bleeding.
- Apply a generous amount of Hydra Heel Balm 250ml to the heels and any other dry, rough areas such as the balls of the feet, hands or elbows.
- Massage the balm into the skin until most of it has been absorbed.
- For daytime use, allow the product to absorb before putting on socks and shoes to reduce slipperiness.
- For an intensive overnight treatment, apply a thicker layer of balm, then cover with clean cotton socks to help the product stay in place while you sleep.
For best results, use the heel balm every morning and evening. It may take several days of regular use to notice visible improvement. Once the skin feels softer and more comfortable, continue using Hydra Heel Balm 250ml daily or as needed to maintain results.
Important tips and precautions
- For external use only.
- Do not apply to open wounds, infected skin or deep, bleeding cracks. Seek medical advice first.
- Avoid contact with the eyes and mouth. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with clean water.
- If you experience burning, redness, itching or irritation that does not settle, stop use and speak to a Healthcare Professional.
- People with diabetes or poor circulation should always consult a Healthcare Professional before treating foot problems at home.
- Keep out of reach of children. Store Hydra Heel Balm 250ml in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly closed.
