Taking Care of Your Skin and Feet

Your skin is your body's largest organ, and taking care of it is necessary not only for aesthetics but also for the health of your body. The skin is the largest gateway for the environment to interact with your body, especially as substances applied to the skin have fast access into the bloodstream. Taking care of your skin properly requires consistent care and a developed skin care routine. Incorporating the necessary skin care products into your routine based on your needs and skin type is important for maintaining your skin's health, as well as to achieve the aesthetic benefits associated with hydrated and healthy skin.

What is a Mentholated Foot Cream?

Mentholated foot creams are foot creams infused with menthol. Menthol and methyl salicylate are known as counterirritants, which work by causing the skin to feel cool, then followed by a warm sensation. Such feelings on the skin distract from feeling the aches and pains deeper in the muscles, joints, and tendons. Applications to the feet aid in alleviating pain felt in the associated muscles, especially common in individuals who are often on their feet and suffer overuse injuries and pain, as well as those who are overweight or are suffering the normal effect of aging.¹

Highlighted Ingredient: Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice is commonly known as Aloe Vera and is extracted from the leaves of the Aloe plant. Aloe has been used for thousands of years medicinally across many cultures, and it includes over 200 nutritional substances, including but not limited to 20 minerals, 20 amino acids, 12 vitamins (including A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, C, E, Choline and Folic Acid), and active enzymes. The vitamins are useful in protecting the skin from free radicals, which can damage skin and cause premature aging. The leaf juice of Aloe Barbadensis can serve as an anti-inflammatory and soothe the skin, even in cases of burns, and can also reduce scars and have wound healing properties. Aloe is also useful in protecting the skin from UV damage through aloin, an herb of aloe that can block up to 30 percent of ultraviolet rays when it's applied to the skin's surface.²

Highlighted Ingredient: Glyceryl Stearate

Glyceryl Stearate is a non-ionic opacifier, thickener, and stabilizer for skincare formulas, and functions as a skin conditioner, moisturizer, and hydrator. Applying glyceryl stearate to the skin provides lubricant to the skin layers, leaving them with a soft and smooth appearance of hydrated skin. Glycerin is also useful in the skin's aquaporins, or water channels, aiding in transport. Aquaporins are integrated membrane proteins that transfer water and small solutes across the skin's cell membrane to its uppermost layers. They are necessary for maintaining the skin's moisture balance, leaving it smooth and hydrated even in drier climates.³

Who is the First Fitness Foot Energizer For?

The First Fitness Foot Energizer is ideal for individuals who suffer from muscle, joint, and tendon pain in the feet and ankles, most common in individuals who overuse their feet, are overweight, and/or are facing the effects of normal aging.

The Bottom Line

The First Fitness Foot Energizer is a methylated foot cream, using the effects of Aloe Vera, aimed at reviving and soothing aching and pained feet due to damage, irritation, and tenderness in the joints, muscles, and tendons of the foot and ankle.
