🧊 Do your hands and feet crack in the cold weather?

You’re not alone, when temps drop, the air gets drier and steals moisture right from your skin. That’s why your hands and feet can get rough, tight, or even start to split and crack. 😣

Here are a few quick fixes that actually help:
🧴 Apply a thick moisturizer or healing ointment right after washing
🧤 Wear gloves when you’re outside (or even while sleeping after moisturizing!)
🦶 Use a foot balm or urea cream to keep heels soft and prevent splits
💧 Don’t forget to stay hydrated — inside and out!

Cold weather doesn’t have to mean cracked skin. How do you keep your hands and feet healthy in the winter? 👇
