We named it Heavy Handed for a reason.

When we built this product, we were thinking about hands that take a beating.

Dry hands. Cracked knuckles. Split fingertips. Rough palms. Calluses from work, training, tools, weather, and everyday life.

But here’s something a lot of customers discover after they buy it.

Heavy Handed works great on more than just hands.

And honestly, it makes sense.

Because dry skin is dry skin.

Whether it is on your hands, heels, elbows, knees, or feet, rough skin usually needs the same thing: moisture, protection, and a little extra care.

Can you use hand cream on cracked heels?

Yes, you can use Heavy Handed on cracked heels.

In fact, cracked heels are one of the most common “other places” people tell us they use it.

If you are on your feet all day, your heels take a lot of abuse. Work boots, hard floors, weather, long shifts, training, and just being on the move can leave your feet dry, rough, and cracked.

And once your heels start cracking, they can get uncomfortable fast.

Heavy Handed was made for rough, dry skin, so it makes sense that people started using it on their feet too.

The best time to use it on cracked heels is before bed. Apply a good layer to your heels, let it soak in, and if you want to really lock it in, throw on a pair of socks.

It is simple, but it can make a big difference when you stay consistent.

What about dry elbows?

Dry elbows are another spot people tend to ignore until they get rough.

Elbows are easy to forget about because they are not always front and center. But they can get dry, flaky, and rough from leaning on desks, working on hard surfaces, cold weather, showers, and everyday friction.

If your elbows feel rough or look dry, Heavy Handed can help give that skin the moisture it has been missing.

Just apply a small amount and rub it in like you would on your hands.

No complicated routine needed.

Can you use Heavy Handed on rough knees?

Absolutely.

Knees can get rough for a lot of the same reasons elbows do. Kneeling at work, crawling around with kids, working in the yard, training, cleaning, or spending time on rough surfaces can all dry out and toughen the skin.

If your knees feel dry, rough, or ashy, you can use Heavy Handed there too.

A little goes a long way, and it is especially helpful after a shower or before bed when your skin has time to absorb it.

Callused feet need care too

Calluses are not always a bad thing.

If you work on your feet, lift, train, hike, or spend a lot of time in boots, calluses can form as a way of protecting your skin.

The problem is when those calluses get too dry.

That is when they can start cracking, splitting, or catching on socks and sheets.

Heavy Handed can help soften dry, rough callused areas so they feel less beat up. You do not need perfect, baby-soft feet. That is not really the point.

You just want skin that feels better, moves better, and does not crack every time you put pressure on it.

Why does Heavy Handed work on more than hands?

Because we did not make it for delicate, barely-dry skin.

We made it for skin that works.

Skin that gets dry from friction, washing, weather, tools, boots, gloves, sweat, dirt, and long days.

That is why customers started using it on other rough spots too.

Cracked heels.

Dry elbows.

Rough knees.

Callused feet.

Stubborn dry patches that just do not seem to go away with regular lotion.

The name is Heavy Handed, but the idea was always bigger than just hands.

It is about taking care of the skin that takes the most abuse.

Where else can you use Heavy Handed?

People tell us they use Heavy Handed on:

• Dry hands
• Cracked heels
• Rough elbows
• Dry knees
• Callused feet
• Rough patches
• Dry cuticles
• Dry spots from work, weather, or friction

Basically, if you have a rough, dry area that needs extra moisture, try it there.

Just avoid using it on open wounds, deep cracks that are bleeding, or irritated skin that needs medical attention. Heavy Handed is made for dry, rough skin, but if something looks infected, painful, or does not improve, it is always worth checking with a professional.

The best time to use it

For hands, we always recommend using Heavy Handed after washing, after work, and before bed.

For heels, feet, elbows, knees, and other rough spots, nighttime is usually the easiest.

That way, you can put it on and let it sit while your skin gets a break.

After a shower is another great time because your skin is clean and ready for moisture.

The main thing is consistency.

One use can make your skin feel better, but using it regularly is what helps keep rough, dry skin from getting out of hand again.

Heavy Handed is still hand care

At the end of the day, Heavy Handed was built for hands.

Hard-working hands.

Hands that build, fix, lift, clean, care, cut, carry, grip, and provide.

But those same people usually have more than one rough spot.

If your hands are dry from work, there is a good chance your heels, elbows, knees, or feet might be dealing with the same thing.

So if you have only been using Heavy Handed on your hands, go ahead and try it somewhere else.

You might be surprised.
