CrackZapIt! - Fast relief of painful finger cracks - Closed in 3 days or less PAINFUL finger cracks? Yeah... I know..
..."HONEY! QUICK!..come'ere and help me snap my jeans!" I was pleading to my wife... ..feeling so helpless because the bleeding cracks on the tips of these two thumbs of mine felt like someone was stabbing needles in 'em as I desperately tried to snap my pants shut and.. just couldn't do it.
But like many folks who work with their hands, whether as a hobby or career, I used to get excruciating, painful finger cracks from my work as a trim carpenter, tile setter, surfboard 'glasser, potter, gardener, and painter over the years. (And being a barefoot guy at the beach and in the mountains, I also got painful heel cracks as well.)
Sandpaper, dust, wood, glue, abrasive conditions, wet and dry cycles... Drying solvents, moisture sucking clay, and bitter cold in the winter were just common occurrences in a day that I didn't really think about. And, "Wham!", painful cracks would just seem to spontaneously appear on my fingers. I put up with it for a long time - too long. Skin care lotions and hand creams always gave a moment or two of relief, but they were messy, in big bottles, and usually at home. I tried all KINDS of stuff. Then I stumbled on a car door latch lubricant that was in a thick stick form. It worked pretty good...sorta'. I used this for a while. Then, as car door latch technology changed, the company went out of business... I thought maybe I could get or buy their formula, so I started investigating. I ran into an analysis of the product by a university, and discovered it was all petroleum products and basically toxic. And I was putting this on bleeding finger cracks. Dang it. Then I resolved to research skin care - I wanted something that was designed the way it was on purpose, not some 'accidental' toxic junk. Well, hey, it was GREAT for door latches..that's what it was MADE for. I wanted it healthy and natural, easy to apply, conveniently packaged, and it had to work... I mean, I was desperate. Well, it took me over a year to develop a balm that I based primarily on beeswax and honey along with other, natural substances I had researched as beneficial aids to healing abraded, cracked skin. It all needed to blend, be thick enough to fill cracks, and be sticky enough to stay on longer than wimpy lotions so my body's natural healing process could take place... Early one Saturday morning, after many experiments in my own kitchen, I carefully warmed up trial #39, and poured it into an empty lip balm tube...I couldn't wait for it to cool down so I could try it. Finally it was ready. It felt perfect. Nice and thick. It filled the crack on my left index finger that started from the corner of my fingernail and cut down my fingertip... ..and, thank God, after a minute or two - blessed relief. Eureka! CrackZapIt! Skin Care Therapy was born. I put it on 3 times a day for 3 days and...closed up finger crack. Mission accomplished... The rest of the story about the nitty gritty details of developing a product for market?... I'll tell you later...{;^)

~FROM OUR USERS~
"I have eczema on my fingers and I tried CRACK ZAP IT and it was very soothing. It healed up so quickly like magic! It has helped tremendously and I decided to carry one tube in my purse all the time. My husband tried it on his cracked finger tips, it worked great and the result was amazing. We want to buy a few CRACK ZAP IT so we can give them as gifts to our friends and family...." -Colorado
"During the winter months, my fingers crack right at the tip on the edge of the nail. In addition to being painful it's hard to do small delicate tasks because of soreness and bandaids. I used CrackZapIt one time and over night my fingers were starting to heal and I could get rid of the bandaids. This is a "must carry in your pocket" for anyone who works outdoors." -Pennsylvania
"I carry a tube with me all the time. It's always available to use at any time and really stops the pain of finger cracking. It helps heal the cracks in the creases of my fingers. In the winter time I'm never without it!" -Maryland
"Great for those cracks on your fingertips. I love it so much I'm getting some for my mom. Better than anything I've ever tried!"
-New Hampshire
"Heals dry cracked and bleeding fingers like magic. Nothing else even comes close. Its the only way we can get through the winter around here! Don't ever stop selling it please!"
-Massachusetts
"I work and play hard--and my hands bear the brunt of it. Being a nurse, my hands are washed dozens of times a day. After years of chronic painful cracked hands I found solice in O'Keefe's Working Hands (also sold by Duluth)which healed my pitiful handsquickly after a few uses--except for one deep stubborn crack on the edge of my thumb nail that has been gnawing at me years. CRACKZAPIT literally relieved the pain immediately and then started to heal it--honest to God--after ONE APPLICATION! After a couple days, my cut is now history. No more pain. Nothing else has ever come close to healing or even just soothing this cut and almost everything I had ever tried previously was painful when applied. THIS STUFF IS AMAZING. I can't imagine it not working for anyone else! FYI: If you use both products, I have found they work best together by applying the CRACKZAPIT first to any open areas, then apply the O'Keefe's. Then enjoy your painfree healing hands!"
