Your body parts work especially hard to help you live your best life every day. While they all do some serious heavy lifting, it's possible that none of them work as hard as your hands and feet. Your hands are exposed to all of the elements as you move in and out of different life situations. You touch things, stuff falls on your hands, germs abound. Your feet carry you miles and miles every day, balancing your weight and making sure you move from place to place without falling over.
For all your hands and feet do for you, below is a listing of products you can use to reward them for a job well done every day. Take care of your hands and feet with these products made by Indie Business members nationwide.

It is carefully crafted with the skin-loving calendula herb (grown on their own farm!) slow-infused in organic olive oil over several weeks. The scent is subtle, and it's gentle enough to use on young children and pets.
