Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

With so much emphasis on luxurious moisturisers, buzzy retinol serums and plumping eye creams, it can be easy to neglect body care. Now that sandal season is upon us, your feet, in particular, could be in need of some TLC.

Slightly less glamorous than your favourite face cream, but just as important to looking and feeling good, foot creams are an often-overlooked bathroom cabinet essential.

A pick-me-up between pedicures and an easy way to make sure your feet are always summer-ready, these products can keep the skin on your feet soft and supple, while helping to heal sore, cracked heels and combat hard skin.

If you’d rather not spend a fortune on your feet (us neither), brands such as E45 and Burts Bee’s are delivering premium formulas at a fraction of the cost. In fact, the best foot cream tried and tested by our beauty writer will set you back just £9.50.

Hailing from beauty editor-favourite CeraVe, the renewing foot cream yields results after just one use. Here’s everything you need to know.

CeraVe’s no-frills approach to beauty basics is characterised by medicinal packaging and hardworking formulas that get the job done. According to our tester, that’s exactly the case with this foot cream.

“Glycerin hydrates, niacinamide works to help heal the skin barrier, salicylic acid sloughs away dead skin cells, and a blend of three essential ceramides defends against dryness and irritation,” they said in their review.

After one use, our writer found it had worked its magic and they “were instantly impressed”, adding that “when using it every day for one week, our feet felt and looked incredibly healthy”. For a formula that comes in at under £10, that’s tall praise.
