It’s All About Those Feet, No Fungus!

November 1, 2017

L.R.. Dr. Canuso and me

The Science of Beautiful Feet

L.R.. Dr. Canuso and meL.R. and I met Dr. Canuso at the tradeshow in October. She is super nice and L.R. thought we should bring Dr. Canuso’s line of foot care into the shop. I was pretty shocked by this as she had said “oooohh gross” when we had walked by the booth earlier that day. But her tune changed after we took the class, “The Science of Beautiful Feet” taught by Dr. Canuso.

The information below comes from Dr. Canuso’s website and from the class that we attended.

Dr. Dana Canuso is a Podiatric Surgeon and she was recently given the title of one of “America’s Best Podiatrists” and is a member of Mensa. Using her chemistry background combined with her years of clinical experience, Dr. Canuso worked with a world renowned chemist to develop a patent pending line of products designed specifically for feet.

Treating the skin on our feet is difficult for two reasons:

  • First, the skin of your feet is thicker than anywhere else on your body
  • Second, the fungus that causes dry, cracked heels and fungal toenails lives in the deepest layer of the skin

and there are 2 types of dry skin on the feet:

  • Simple – Lack of hydration, age related, climate related, smoking, environmental, or systemic
  • Complex – Lack of moisture and fungus

So how do you know which one you have? Basically if you use lotion for 2 days and your feet don’t start to do better that most likely you have a fungus!

So generally when you have dry or maybe even cracked feet, we apply lotion and then socks. The challenge comes if you actually have a fungus and not dry feet. If you actually have a fungus, you have just given the fungus a wicked breeding ground to prosper since it loves dark wet places. According to WebMD, “fungus grows best in a warm, moist environment such as shoes, socks, swimming pools, locker rooms, and the floors of public showers. It is most common in the summer and in warm, humid climates.”

Here’s a fun morning show interview with Dr. Canuso that I thought explained the reasons behind her products really well:

Dr. Canuso wanted to help her clients get rid of nail fungus in a quicker time and without the harmful side effects of oral medications. Foot Repair Serum formulated to penetrate thick skin and attack the fungus where it lives with a proven active ingredient Tolnaftate. And unlike a peel or scrub which simply removes the top layer of dead skin without treating the cause of the problem, Dr. Canuso’s serum allows for an increased concentration of medication to penetrate and kill the fungus that is the root cause of dry, cracked skin in the first place.

Cracked heels before and after Dr. Canuso's treatment

Untreated, the fungus that causes dry cracked heels, may eventually jump to your toenails and cause yellow, brittle fungal toenails. So it is imperative that the foot fungus be treated before it infects your toenail. But if you already have fungal toenails, Dr. Canuso Healthy Nail System was specifically designed to treat and clear your toenails. And can be used with polished nails.

Step-1 kills the foot fungus fast that causes toenail fungus while Step-2 promotes the growth of your new healthy clear nails. This patent pending system is a breakthrough in the treatment of fungal toenails and is currently the subject of a clinical study at Temple University.

We carry her Skincare Foot Line at the shop:

Introducing our new Limited Edition Tomato Skincare Kit

August 5, 2014

Saucy Chica Skincare Tomato Kit

Saucy Chica Skincare Tomato KitTomatoes are a staple in every kitchen but hardly ever will you hear anyone extolling their cosmetic benefits. Whether you want to cure large pores or reduce acne and rashes or sooth a nasty sunburn or simply to revive the glow on dull skin, tomatoes are beneficial in beauty treatments. Tomatoes contain Lycopene, a potent antioxidant found in red fruits and vegetables. Its anti-inflammatory properties help clear excess oil from your hair and scalp, leaving hair feeling soft, full, and balanced.

We decided to put our tomatoes to better use and made some fabulous new Saucy Chica skincare items! So to go along with our tomato holiday, we are offering a limited edition skincare kit. These fabulous products are only available in our special skincare kit, and kits are only available for the month of August – and only a limited number are available. They are $150 per kit.
