What Our Customers Say About GLYSOLID
Real words from people who use GLYSOLID on their hands, feet and heels every day.
GLYSOLID is definitely the best solution for rough or cracked heels. Nothing else works as well as GLYSOLID. I love it and cannot go without.
Debi

I have been using GLYSOLID products for more than 20 years, and it is still the best cream I have ever used. I simply love how soft and silky my hands and feet feel after applying it.
Over the years, I have introduced GLYSOLID to many friends and family members, and now none of us wants to be without it! I was delighted to find a local supplier.
GLYSOLID has become an essential part of our daily routine.
Ansie Knight

From the first time I used GLYSOLID on my feet I was hooked! It’s super nourishing without being oily, and a little goes a long way. It’s so good that my husband uses it too (he has his own tin!) 😊

I have been using GLYSOLID for many years, for my face at night as well as the hand cream. Amazing! Don’t hesitate. Place an order while stocks last.
Diana

GLYSOLID cream has become a daily essential for my eczema-prone skin. It helps keep my skin moist, smooth, and soft. I love applying it to my feet. It makes them feel pampered, like I’ve just had a pedicure!

I honestly cannot live without my GLYSOLID! Using it daily transformed my sandal-loving heels from dry and cracked to soft and smooth. I’ve never looked back!
Raeesa

GLYSOLID is the only thing that saves my dry feet, especially in winter! So I ensure that I have a steady supply from anyone travelling from South Africa.
I lather it on, slip on a pair of socks before bed, and wake up to baby-soft skin. It works like magic!
Saajida

I had very dry and cracked heels and I use this product daily and I have smooth, soft feet that do not cause pain like it did before I started using this product. I let everyone know how great this product is and how much it has helped me.
M. DeBolt
GLYSOLID customer
It is by far the only cream that keeps my hands and feet from bleeding in the winter! I have used this for years. I give it as a gift whenever I can. Everyone should use GLYSOLID! It’s a keeper!
Chris Teplitsky
GLYSOLID customer
I put GLYSOLID on my hands and feet at night before I go to bed, then wear cotton gloves and socks while sleeping. When I wake up in the morning my skin is soft and smooth and younger looking. I also love it because it is unscented.
C. Kenison
GLYSOLID customer
This product has truly helped make my feet, elbows and hands softer. In the summer I wear flip flops every day and my feet can get callused. Using GLYSOLID every night has made this problem cease to exist. I love it.
J. Pena
GLYSOLID customer
I have used GLYSOLID for 15 years and there is nothing on the market that can touch the results. I do a great deal of fishing as well as windsurfing and both are hard on your hands. GLYSOLID keeps them moist and totally prevents dry cracking skin.
