FOR YOUR FEET
As for your feet, a staple item to keep is L’Occitane’s Shea Butter Foot Cream. This formula is enriched with 15% nourishing Shea Butter for that extra added moisture. Not only does this product contain an antiseptic A.O.C. lavender essential oil which helps purify the skin but it also includes an anti-inflammatory arnica extract to help reduce redness and irritation.
