WINTER HANDS & TOES - Are you suffering with this as well?

Have you ever noticed that when winter comes, your hands and feet seem to suffer most?

Maybe it starts with a bit of dryness… then suddenly your knuckles are cracked, your toes burn and swell, and just pulling on shoes or brushing against a bedsheet makes you wince.

This is more than just “dry skin.” It’s your body crying out for gentle care.

🌬 Why does this happen?

 

Cold weather is harsh on your circulation.

When temperatures drop, your body pulls blood away from your hands and feet to keep your core warm. That means less oxygen and fewer nutrients reach your skin. It starts to dry out, slow down healing, and lose its natural resilience.

Then add windy air and heaters that strip away moisture, and your skin becomes tight, flaky, or painfully cracked.

For some people, it’s even worse. Going from cold to sudden heat (like plunging feet into a hot bath) makes tiny blood vessels expand too quickly, causing redness, swelling and burning. This is often called chilblains, or “winter hands and toes” — little inflamed spots that can make shoes feel unbearable.

 

 

 

💚 How to soothe & protect naturally

 

The good news is, there are gentle ways to bring comfort and help your skin heal.

 

🖤 1. Start by smoothing away the roughness

 

A layer of dead skin blocks moisture from sinking in. Once a week, give your hands and feet a gentle buff with our Charcoal Body Scrub. It clears away dryness without scratching or irritating, so your moisturisers can truly penetrate.

 

🌿 2. Build up daily protection

 

Reach for something rich and barrier-forming. Our Lotion Bar with Hemp & Mango Butter melts instantly on contact, delivering omega-rich nourishment that strengthens your skin and helps keep out cold, dry air. Massage it into knuckles, between fingers, around toes — anywhere that feels tender.

 

🌸 3. Rescue the worst spots

 

When cracks are so deep they sting with every step, or your toes feel raw, use our Miracle Healing Balm. This is your “hero in a jar” — a deeply comforting blend that creates a soft shield over broken skin so it can finally start repairing.

 

🧦 4. Warm gently, not suddenly

 

If your feet are icy, avoid plunging them into hot water. Wrap them in warm blankets or slip on woolly socks first, letting temperature rise slowly to protect tiny blood vessels.

 

 

 

✨ Your hands & feet work hard for you

 

They hold, carry, steady, and ground you — all day, every day. When winter comes, they simply ask for a little more care.

By using natural butters, soothing oils, and gentle exfoliation, you can keep them soft, comfortable, and beautifully resilient, even through the coldest months.
