HOW TO KEEP YOUR FEET WARM THIS WINTER

Winter in Canada is as beautiful as it is bone-chilling. For many, the challenge of keeping feet warm during frosty months isn’t just about comfort—it’s about protecting your skin from dryness, cracking, and other cold-induced issues. With proper care, you can enjoy warm, cozy feet all winter long.

LAYERING UP SMARTLY

Proper layering and footwear are the foundation of warm winter feet.

Choose Insulating Socks: Opt for wool or thermal socks that lock in warmth but let your feet breathe. Cotton socks can trap moisture and leave your feet feeling cold.
Double Layers for Extra Warmth: Start with a thin moisture-wicking sock, then layer a thicker insulating sock on top.
The Right Boots: Insulated and waterproof boots are a must. Look for a snug fit without being too tight to ensure good circulation.

GEHWOL Tip: Before putting on your socks, apply GEHWOL Warming Cream to your feet. Its soothing warmth will make every step feel cozy while keeping your skin hydrated and protected.

KEEP THE HEAT IN

Once your feet are layered up, focus on retaining warmth.

Warm Footwear Before Wearing: Use a boot dryer or place your shoes near a heater before heading out.
Heated Accessories: Heated insoles or battery-powered foot warmers are lifesavers for outdoor adventures.
Avoid Tight Footwear: Shoes that pinch can restrict blood flow, leaving your feet colder.

GEHWOL Tip: massage GEHWOL Leg Vitality Cream into your legs and feet. Its revitalizing formula relieves fatigue and improves circulation, which helps keep your feet warm and comfortable.

SUPPORT HEALTHY CIRCULATION

Good circulation is essential for warm feet, especially during winter.

Stay Active: Keep your toes moving with gentle exercises or walking to stimulate blood flow.
Elevate Your Feet: When sitting, elevate your feet slightly to prevent circulation issues.
Layer Thoughtfully: Avoid overly tight socks or boots that can cut off blood flow.

GEHWOL Tip: A Warming Bath is perfect for improving warmth. Its blend of warming agents provides a gentle heating effect, stimulating circulation and keeping cold toes at bay. Use it before going outdoors or as part of your evening foot care routine.

WINTER CARE FOR FEET

Cold air and indoor heating can leave feet dry and cracked. Proper skincare prevents these common winter woes.

Moisturize Daily: Hydrate your skin with GEHWOL FUSSKRAFT Hydro Lipid Lotion, formulated with urea, oats, and jojoba oil to lock in moisture and repair the skin barrier.
Exfoliate Regularly: Use a gentle exfoliator like GEHWOL FUSSKRAFT Soft Feet Scrub to remove dead skin cells, ensuring creams can penetrate deeply.
Tackle Cracks and Calluses: Apply GEHWOL Repair Cream to very dry or cracked areas for intensive hydration and restoration.

GEHWOL Tip: Always apply moisturizers after a warm shower or foot bath for maximum absorption. Try the GEHWOL FUSSKRAFT Herbal Bath, which soothes and refreshes while preparing your skin for moisturization.
