I created this recipe because I was in desperate need of something to help heal my cracked heels and extremely dry skin on my legs. Being barefoot and out in the weather all the time I needed something natural to help! Thus my masterpiece! Wonderful for ANYTHING that needs deep moisturization! It stays on longer then lotion and doesn't wash off easily in water. It has a blend of four essential oils. It comes in a tube that makes it easy to apply to your skin. You just can not go wrong by this balm!
