Had very dry cracked heels that would not soften no matter what foot cream or product I used, and I used them all.Decided it was a fungus problem, so looked for a natural anti fungal solution as the others kill your liver (? not kidding).This Tea Tree cream is all it’s cracked up to be and more!! Got rid of the fungus I’ve had for years with just a couple of weeks twice daily application. No awful tea tree oil odor and after about a month or so I don’t have to use it every day to have soft, nice feet and heels.100% recommend. ??????
Have rough bottoms of the feet - dry and and cracked at times. Have used numerous products that are called foot creams. Most advertised stating "foot repair", "advanced foot repair", etc. At age 83 people do often have non-diabetic cracked heels and bottoms of feet - it's partly a process of aging and tough to improve. I also have had toenail fungus in one foot for which I have used various things - none of which has worked at all. RX fungus products I have never used because one has to use them for so long it's better to keep toenails trimmed and I found through podiatrist advice that tea tree oil and oregano oil (or lavender oil) followed by rubbing nails with hard toothbrush to work it in, especially under front of nail has gradually improved fungus. The foot creams heavily advertised like Dr. Teal's, Eucerin, etc. really don't work to permanently relieve dry/cracked feet. Statements like "advanced" have to be taken with a "grain of salt" because the word means nothing; unless explained why product is called "advanced".And what and how ingredients that make it "that" work. None do even if you go online to get info at company site!! This New York Biology product I have found used twice daily over time has :softened: and made the bottoms of my feet more comfortable - noticeably so used regularly which I do - even put it on at night (that's second time used daily) with white sox. Podiatrists recommend that white sox treatment. Bottom line - have used many and this is only one I will go back and buy again and keep using.While it is called "tea tree"it has other ingredients not found in some of the "major" creams advertised. (yes, I am one of those ingredient "freaks" so to speak who examines ingredients in products I buy - have for a long time. ) Thishas ceramides which are clinically proven to hold water in skin not found in some of major products. Also good is hyaluronic acid. This product has radish root extract. Might sound phony to some but it's actually helpful proven so by its activity for dry cracked feet. There are a few others but enough is enough. Has also Dimeticone and 1 or 2 other products that are found in major brands. As to whether the product will help with toenail fungus, that for me is yet to be determined. It does have TT oil and spearmint oil (the latter of which in combination with TT can supposedly help get under the nails used properly). Bottom line: this foot cream makes my feet feel better and heels and foot bottoms are clearly smoother and there is no longer that uncomfortable feeling. Advice: if it works for you use it. Always remember when reading reviews they are all subjective; some not always "objective".Finally, New York Biology labels it as "advanced". As noted above, what makes it advanced as opposed to just "regular or not advanced". That is only negative I could find because advanced is a catch advertising phrase but advanced ought to have a definition s to why it's advanced as opposed to "non-advanced"! In this case to me it is better than what I have usednd perhaps the advanced for me is that it does have ingredients in it that are not in other products and which are tested as good for cracked/dry feet. But, again, for me it's advanced because it works better than other "advanced" products I have used unsuccessfully.
I highly recommend this product. I was very reluctant to purchase this item. I was afraid it was going to be oily, but it is not. It works into the skin very nicely. It leaves your feet feelings soft. It takes away the scaly feeling not only between your toes but on your heels as well I find it very soothing and this fragrance is not unpleasant. It has improved my feet in the most wonderful way. I’ve never had pretty feet, but now I I am not ashamed to take my shoes off because my feet they look nice and soft.
