Natural ingredients in Medipod Foot Repair Cream part 2

This past Saturday we celebrated #EarthHourZA and made a pledge to
#UpCycleCans not only is here a picture of our pledge we also want to
inform you of the natural ingredients in Medipod Foot Repair Cream.

One of our ingredients in Medipod Foot Repair Cream is Vitamin E:

With the outdoor environment we always expose our skin to wind, air
conditioners, indoor heating system, etc... Dry skin will eventually lead to flaky skin, it makes our skin look dull and lifeless. It will also
cause the skin to develop micro cracks and flakes, which will let
foreign objects in the air, bacteria and various forms of harmful
irritants to damage our skin.

This is what vitamin E is for, to provide ample nutrients and keep the skin healthy and beautiful.

How it works:
When creams and lotions containing vitamin E is topically applied on
the skin, the alpha-tocopherol form slips through the epidermis down
into the skin cells. When it’s inside the skin tissue, they start to be
converted into free tocopherol, a known antioxidant, which helps the
skin get rid of toxins and make it healthy.

There are also specific formulations of vitamin E skin care products that are best for special type of skin care treatments, such as targeting skin areas prone to dryness, such as hands and
heels. Some formulations are even used for scar reduction and
even stretch marks. Lotions with vitamin E are good for protecting your
skin from the harmful UV rays from the sun.
