I never got dry feet — until I moved to the desert. Out here, having something to rub into your feet isn’t luxury, it’s simple self-defense.

I’ve combined a number of essential oils in a base of olive oil, nourishing coconut butter, and beeswax. This makes a rich, hearty salve that’ll take care of your dry, cracked feet (and knees and elbows) in no time.

It’s also got both peppermint and spearmint essential oils. Refreshing, cooling, they’ll relax your foot muscles and they smell so good. Tea tree oil is a natural antifungal and is very good for skin in general. Vitamin E oil helps ease cracks and scars, and also serves as a natural preservative for the salve.

The classic glass jar contains 1.5 ounces of salve. As always, I’ve made it by hand out of essential oils and other natural ingredients.

Ingredients: Olive oil, beeswax, st johns wort, peppermint essential oil, spearmint essential oil, tea tree essential oil, vitamin e oil, coconut butter.
