Tatha Healed feet- Foot Cream


I have been given the wonderful opportunity to review Tatha Wellness products & it gives me immense pleasure to review products that are made of 100% pure, natural & fresh ingredients. My post today would be about the Tatha Foot cream & before I do that I would like to let you all know a little about Tatha & the inspiration behind its formation.

Alright, here’s my take on the Foot cream!


What does Tatha claim about this Tatha Heeled Feet –Foot cream: To remove dead skin, refine feet, cobat foot odour and perk up circulation a daily application of foot cream is necessary.

Ingredients: Olea Europaea, Beeswax, Mentha x Piperita, Melaleuca Alternifolia, Lavandula Angustifolia.

I checked the ingredient information & this is what I found from google.

Olea Europaea- is a subspecies of olive, it’s good for mature, dry, or sensitive skin types.

Beeswax also retains properties that sooth and soften skin, making it a perfect ingredient for lotions because it will keep skin moisturized. The properties in beeswax work as a soothing and healing agent in salves designed for burns, cuts and other wounds.

Mentha x Piperita known as Peppermint , when applied topically, has a soothing and cooling effect on skin.

 Melaleuca Alternifolia  also known as  Tea Tree Oil  fights fungal nail infections, jock itch and athlete’s foot. Tea tree oil is effective in fighting Trichophyton, the fungus that causes a number of topical infections such as athlete’s foot and jock itch.

Lavandula Angustifolia also known as English Lavender.  Lavender essential oil is highly regarded as an antiseptic, anti-inflammatory,it reduces stress , speeds up wound healing, soothes & relaxes the mind & body.



Directions for use: Take the desired quanity & apply with gentle massaging strokes to your foot & legs. Massage on till the cream is totally absorbed by the skin( approximately 2 minutes)

Price: Rs. 1,250 INR for 50gm

My Experience:  I have been using this cream for sometime & decided to write a review. This cream comes in 50gms blue colored glass tub & the color of the cream is lemony. The cream is rich in texture because of all the natural ingredients especially the essential oils, it’s oily & will take a few minutes to get completely absorbed. I usually apply this cream at night & after a few minutes massage would wear socks & go to sleep. The next morning my feet would look moisturised & hydrated. Since this has pure ingredients, it takes some time to heal the cracked feet; one can’t see an overnight change in the way they look. Though this looks like a small tub, after using it for several days, there is still large amount of cream left in jar. All in all, this is a very nice cream to keep the feet nourished & get rid of dryness without worrying about the ingredients because it’s made of all safe ingredients & right now this a must have product for my Foot care regime.

Pros of the foot cream
  1. All the ingredients used are pure and natural & soothing.
  2. It is handmade & comes in recyclable sturdy glass tub to maintain its purity.
  3. Paraben, Sulphate & Chemical free product.
  4. Doesn’t have an overwhelming fragrance to irritate the nose.
  5. A little goes a long way. 
  6. Regular usage of the foot cream will leave the skin moisturised & get rid of dryness.
  7. Shell life is only 10 months because this doesn’t have any preservatives; it’s all natural & safe.
  8. Packaging looks elegant, it’s a sturdy glass jar & has a lid made of a very good quality plastic.
  9. Tatha products are not tested on animals.

Cons of the foot cream
1.    Comes in a tub, so you need to sanitize your hands before applying.
2.    Can’t be used as a day time cream for feet! Since it has all natural essential oils, it’s little oily & there are chances of staining your footwear.
3.    Expensive at Rs.1250 but considering it is pure & natural it’s worth it.

Final Verdict: If you need an all natural & pure cream to keep your feet & legs soft & hydrated this is definitely for you! But if you have severe dry & cracked feet, you need to have patience because it takes time to heal it.
