Suggested Foot Care Routine
This suggested routine focuses on general foot care practices. Always listen to your skin and adjust frequency based on your individual needs.
Gentle Cleansing & Preparation
Purpose: To cleanse and prepare the skin for moisturising.
Suggested Method: Soak feet in warm (not hot) water for 5-10 minutes to help soften the skin. Pat dry gently with a towel, leaving skin slightly damp.
Note: For exfoliation, you may gently use a soft foot file or pumice stone on damp skin if desired, being careful not to over-exfoliate.
Moisturising Application
Purpose: To moisturise and condition the skin.
Suggested Method: Apply a small amount of NatriGlo Intensive Foot Balm to clean, slightly damp feet. Massage gently until absorbed.
About Our Balm: Our UK-made foot balm contains naturally derived ingredients like shea butter and plant-based waxes that help moisturise and condition the skin when used as part of a regular care routine.
Overnight Care (Optional)

Suggested Method: Apply a thin layer of foot balm daily or as needed. Adjust frequency based on your skin's response and environmental conditions.
