Heel Tastic is the new name for the Heel Stick, which to the best of our knowledge, is a fantastic cracked heel repair balm. Cracked Feet are a pretty big problem, especially with today’s footwear styles. Using Heel Tastic will help eliminate cracked heels and create a much softer and smoother look.It’s not just for cracked heel repair. Heel Tastic can be applied to the elbows and knees to eliminate the dry rough skin which is common in these areas. One of its many advantages is that it feels greaseless so there is sticking to clothes, or smearing on the tile, floor when applied. Use some common sense of course, but for the most part, there is no mess. If you have used other cracked heel lotions you will know exactly what we are referring to.

From the looks of it, just about everyone needs Heel Tastic. As mentioned above, today’s styles show a lot of the foot and unfortunately expose the heels to elements without much protection. The heels quickly dry out and can become cracked. It’s amazing how even the most completely manicured people out there walk around with dry nasty looking cracked heels. Go to any beach, boardwalk or bistro and your bound to get grossed out by what you see.
Adding a good heel cream to your beauty regiment is literally all takes to repair cracked heels and feet. The “good ones” are pretty expensive and the salons love to sell them to you, but it’s completely unnecessary to spend a fortune for a cracked heel remedy when Heel Tastic is so cheap. There are plenty of deals and special offers for Heel Tastic floating around so you are bound to stumble across a buy one heel stick and get another free, or the double the size of the heel stick when you order now promotion.
There are plenty of Heel Tastic reviews out there which illustrate how effective the product is repairing cracked heels and enhancing the appearance of rough dry skin so I can’t imagine there is anything better out there in this price range. In fact, most cracked feet lotions will just attempt to moisturize the skin and remain on its outer layers. Heel Tastic contains essential oils which are able to penetrate the skin and heal cracked heels from within. It’s safe to say that you won’t need to spend extra money getting moisturizing foot massages during your pedicures unless you are strictly in search of a message. Applying Heel Tastic will improve the look and feel of your skin better than anything a nail tech will use. Unless of course, they are using Heel Tastic.
It’s actually pretty common that a salon would use Heel Tastic as part of their package. You may have seen Luxuriant Cracked Heel Repair cream on sale at your Salon, or another private label cracked heel remedy in the exact same packaging as Heel Tastic simply with another name. But now you can get the same Luxuriant Cracked Heel Repair Cream or Heel Stick without paying the retail mark-up. Just because it’s an As Seen On TV product doesn’t mean it’s bad. In fact, the only reason these products become as seen on TV products is because they’re good!
So look around the internet and see what people are saying about Heel Tastic. The reviews are positive!
Heel Fissures
September 29, 2009 by Heel Tastic · Leave a Comment
Heel fissures are a common problem that trouble many individuals. Heel fissures otherwise known as cracked heels are commonly caused by dry skin (xerosis). The symptoms are worse when the skin around the rim of the heel is thick (callus).
In some cases a person may have naturally dry skin that increases the risk of Cracked Heels. Callous that forms around the heel is prone to cracking due to mechanical factors that increase pressures in that area e.g the way a person walks.
Other factors that can be involved in the cause of Cracked Heels include:
- Prolonged standing at work or home, especially on hard floors.
- Being overweight – this increases the pressure on the normal fat pad under the heel, causing it to expand sideways. If the skin is not supple and flexible, the pressures may cause the skin to crack.
- Open-back on shoes. This allows the fat under the heel to expand sideways and the pressure may cause the skin to crack.
- Certain medical conditions cause the skin to become dry and cracked eg diabetes or an underactive thyroid.
- Skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczema.
As with all conditions your Doctor should be consulted to diagnose and treat this condition.
Treatment may include:
- Investigation of the cause of the problem, so this can be addressed.
- Removal of the hard thick skin to promote healing. We may prescribe special creams and socks that will help to deeply moisturizer the area.
- If Cracked Heels are very painful, strapping may be used to ‘hold’ the cracks together during the healing process.
- Advice about footwear and prevention of the problem.
- Orthotics or arch supports may be recommended to alter the way you walk to prevent callous from developing on the heels.
Home Treatment
The key to treating cracked heels at home is to apply a moisturizer before bed at night and then trap the moisture in your feet overnight by wearing a special sock that prevents the moisture from evaporating. Use the following plan for 2 weeks. If you haven’t seen improvement in that time, see your podiatrist:
- Soak your feet or take a bath or shower before bed,
- Apply a deep penetrating moisturizer, such as Callex Ointment,
- Cover the foot with a moisture barrier sock such as Silipos gel therapy socks. Wear the sock overnight,
- Use the moisturizer and sock every night for 2 weeks.
- Smoother. This revolutionary pedicure appliance smooths callouses and removes dry skin on heels and toes in seconds, without the use of harsh chemicals or dangerous blades.
- Heel Tastic can be applied to help nourish and moisturize dry cracked heels.
