Guest guest Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 , I don't know about human feet but mink oil does wonders to soften leather. I use it on my Guide's harness and leash. It is also a very good moisture barrier for real leather shoes, gloves and such. I used to be able to get it where they sell shoe polish and such.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 , Bag Baum? Absolutely, we used to apply it to the utters of our milk cows and it is also a very good skin conditioner. Good for many, many things particularly hands and feet. I had forgotten all about it. (LOLLOLLOL) My Ex, Barbara, used it for diaper rash.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 I used to use bag balm on my feet, but I hated it. Just like using vaseline, it doesn't get absorbed, so you have to put socks on afterwards to keep the stuff from getting all over your bedding. I prefer an oil or lotion that is absorbed into my skin.
