This “therapy” cream melts into your skin without leaving a streak or trace. Its smooth disappearing act brings with it a delicate aroma, an almost buttery blend of vanilla, lemongrass and lavender. I’ve been using it at night on my hands and feet, and after just a couple of nights the rough patches began to disappear. And here’s an added benefit of using this cream at night: its scent is so relaxing, it lulls you to sleep.

Laura Norman has rubbed some pretty famous feet! In addition to serving the members of the panel, her clients include Regis Philbin and Hilary Swank. Regis testified that her reflexology spared him from a kidney stone operation and saved his life. While I cannot make such extreme claims, I did find my session with Laura Norman very relaxing. The hand and foot cream is infused with essential oils to naturally moisturize, nourish and soften the skin. The hydrating cream also smells amazing, which adds to the soothing experience.

Applying this rich, creamy lotion to your feet is like giving yourself an instant pedicure. This winter was especially rough on my soles, so this product was a great addition to my beauty regimen. It contains urea — yes, I know it sounds gross — but it helps loosen and shed hard, scaly skin and can be found in some prescription-strength creams and lotions. My feet were significantly smoother after applying Laura Norman’s product, and the softness lasted much longer than other foot moisturizers. The essential oils make this lotion smell so heavenly, you get a little aromatherapy, too. Not bad for 17 bucks!

I am a runner, and that’s pretty hard on your feet. I usually apply lotion on my feet before going to bed. But even then my feet get very dry, and I am prone to calluses. This cream by Laura Norman really made a difference. My feet felt hydrated without being greasy. My hands and feet are softer and smoother. I also love the way it smells. It’s a little more expensive than I would normally spend, but you can definitely tell the difference. Works great on dry elbows, too.
