- Out Of Stock
The sebaceous (oil glands), located at the base of each hair follicle, produce a waxy substance called sebum that lubricates and moisturizes the skin’s surface and also helps the skin maintain its moisture barrier.
Look closely at your hard-working hands. The skin on your palms is thick and lacks hair. No hair follicles means no sebaceous (oil glands). The skin on the back of your hand is very thin with little fatty tissue and very few hairs.
The thick skin on the soles of your overworked feet also lacks sebaceous glands. Feet are naturally dryer than other areas making them more prone to dryness and cracking. What should you do?
Your hands and feet are constantly exposed to the elements and take a lot of abuse. They deserve the same attention you give the rest of your body. If you take care of your hands and feet, they will take care of you.
