How should I apply the cream for the best effect on sweaty feet?

Wash your feet and dry them thoroughly, especially between the toes. Take a small amount of cream and spread it evenly over the soles, heels, and between the toes — these are the areas where moisture tends to accumulate most. Let the cream absorb for a minute or two before putting on socks or shoes; this helps the astringent ingredients from oak bark extract form a light, dry-touch film on the skin surface. Using it daily, preferably in the morning before a long day in closed footwear, gives more consistent results than applying a thick layer once in a while. A 44 g tube typically lasts one to two months with daily use on both feet.

If you shower in the evening, applying after drying off works well too — the birch bark extract gives a refreshing, toning sensation that can feel pleasant before bed. Avoid applying to broken skin, cuts, or mucous membranes. If your feet are very wet when you start (for example after sports), dry them first; the cream is not designed to absorb large amounts of surface water.
