Princeton, NJ - March 22, 2005 -- After a long, cold winter, many Midwesterners long for sandy beaches and warm, tropical waters. Luxurious Sandals Resorts are a favorite choice, offering beachfront rooms, oceanview suites and amenities such as gourmet restaurants, golf, scuba diving and award-winning spas in its all-inclusive packages.

Karen Kass, an agent with Starship Travel in Chicago, says the Caribbean and Mexico are the two most popular destinations for Chicagoans. Starship Travel is a multiple "Best of the Best" award winner for Sandals destinations. She says, "When clients ask me what they should take to Sandals, I always tell them be sure to take several pairs of shoes, especially some comfortable sandals."

In addition to comfort, most vacationers are also concerned about whether or not their feet look attractive at the beach, whether in sandals, open-toed shoes or barefoot. Dr. Christopher Moore, a Carbondale, Illinois, podiatrist says, "All of my patients, particularly women, are concerned about how their feet look. In winter, I'm often asked 'What can you do to make my toes look better by summer?'"

Along with other podiatrists around the country, Dr. Moore recommends NonyX® Nail Gel from Xenna Corporation for yellow, discolored toenails. NonyX Gel is a natural exfoliant of the dark, yellow or thick granular material called keratin debris, which can build up under nails over time, making them unattractive. Patented NonyX Gel softens, breaks down and then clears out unattractive keratin debris using natural ethanoic acid. NonyX Gel is also safe for diabetic use.

Dr. Moore says "My patients have been very happy with NonyX Gel. It has worked on patients that nothing else worked for, and they tell me 'This is the best my feet have looked in years.' I like a more natural product and many of my patients feel the same way."

A recent clinical study confirmed NonyX Nail Gel significantly improves toenail color and clarity by exfoliating yellowing keratin debris from under the nail.

Calluses and cracked heels are also a concern for those wanting to wear stylish open-toed pumps, slingbacks, flip-flops and sandals. Shoe styles that expose skin to sun and sand contribute to the problem of dry, flaking, or cracked heels. For soft, supple heels and feet Dr. Moore and other podiatrists recommend the natural enzymes found in Xenna's CalleX® Ointment.

One Chicago resident said, "When you travel as much as I do, the way your feet look are a year-round concern. One of the women in my office is in Mexico right now, and a few weeks before she left she was complaining about the poor condition of her heels."

Newly patented CalleX has been shown in consumer studies to significantly reduce callus, dry, flaking skin and cracking on soles and heels within 15 to 30 days, and is safe for diabetic use. Acid-free CalleX moisturizes dry, rough or flaky skin, and exfoliates and thins callused areas, while leaving normal skin completely unaffected.

Because of the individual nature of foot problems, Dr. Moore recommends checking with your podiatrist regarding questions about any foot problem, including concerns related to appearance.

NonyX Nail Gel can be purchased in the footcare section of Walgreens, Rite Aid, Longs, Drug Emporium and most Medicine Shoppe drugstores. It is also available from podiatric physicians, independent pharmacies and online at www.drugstore.com and www.xenna.com. CalleX Ointment is now available in the footcare section at Longs Drugs, from podiatric physicians and online at www.drugstore.com and www.xenna.com.
