Winter is a tough time for my feet. They’re constantly freezing, and dry as a bone. I knew I needed to be proactive this year and have all of the supplies I need to fend off my winter woes. In addition to foot scrubs and plenty of fluffy socks, a good foot lotion is a must, and that’s where Pink Peppermint comes in.
More than just a moisturizer, Pink Peppermint contains some very smart ingredients that have many benefits on battered feet. The first function this foot lotion serves is to ease the pain of tired feet. Peppermint oil offers a cooling effect upon contact, but stimulates blood flow and warms up cold feet.. It even acts as a natural analgesic, relieving some pain from overworked feet. Peppermint and Spearmint are both refreshing and invigorating. Arnica infusion is a miracle ingredient when your feet have been overworked. it not only shares the same pain relieving property as peppermint, but also acts as an anti inflammatory and anti fungal, perfect for after the gym, or just being on your feet all day. And of course, a lotion isn’t a lotion without moisturizing ingredients. This one contains beautifully light and hydrating almond butter to absorb easily into the skin, and silky and rich cocoa butter, and lanolin, to hydrate the most cracked winter feet.
I really love this lotion, everything from the bright pink color, to how smoothly it applies, and how fresh it smells. The beautiful sweet peppermint scent perks up both your feet and mind. While this is not the most hydrating lotion I’ve ever used (I do need to reapply before bed on really dry days) It quenches my dry skin and absorbs easily, without leaving a greasy layer behind.
