Description
APIS API-PODO intensive regenerating ointment - a professional product for foot care treatments in salons, for clients with very dry, rough or cracking heel skin.
The ointment intensely nourishes and protects against drying out, supports regeneration of the epidermis, restores the hydrolipid layer and reduces keratinisation. This means less time spent on follow-up treatments and a better visible result after the very first use - a strong reason for the client to come back.
The formula contains an emollient complex: shea butter, almond and castor oils and waxes (beeswax, rice wax, carnauba wax). This combination protects against moisture loss and slows the regrowth of calluses. Fir and sage extracts, vitamins A and E, soothing D-panthenol and lavender oil complete the formula for keeping feet in good condition long term. Suitable as a product at the technician's workstation and as a home care recommendation for the client after the treatment.
Indications: very dry, rough foot skin, heel skin prone to cracking and excessive keratosis. Recommended for diabetics.
Contraindications: allergy to any of the product's ingredients.
Directions for use: apply an appropriate amount to cleansed and dried foot skin. Massage in gently and leave to absorb. Suitable for use during the treatment and for recommending to the client for home care.
