Hand & Heel Treatment

Although they potentially work the hardest, our poor old feet sometimes get neglected in the self-love department, which is why I’m sharing this nourishing Hand & Heel Treatment.

This cream is a rich, intense moisture boost that I apply to my feet just before bed, and then lock in with socks for some extra nourishment. Believe me when I say you will wake up with feet as soft as a baby’s bottom and smelling seriously delicious.

Ingredients

40g Coconut Oil

10g Beeswax

10g Fractionated Coconut Oil

5g Honey

5g Evening Primrose Oi

10 Drops of Essential Oil (optional)

 

Method

  1. Combine coconut oil, beeswax, fractionated coconut oil and honey in a glass bowl and heat until completely melted. You can do this in a thermomix (5 minutes, speed 1 at 70 degrees) or in the microwave in short burst monitoring not to burn the ingredients.
  2. Add remainder of ingredients and stir to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  3. As the cream starts to set vigorously mix the cream, this will help fluff up the mixture. If you are using a thermomix, insert butterfly whisk and wait for the cream to partially set in the thermomix bowl. When the cream has partially set whip for 30 seconds on speed 4.
  4. Transfer to jar to store.

In house tip; I like to use restorative oils such as frankincense, lavender, myrrh for this recipe.

To use

Apply a generous amount of cream to clean dry skin and massage in. Wear socks or gloves to allow the treatment to nourish overnight.
