The invention discloses application of a skin care composition in diabetic foot care or sutured wound surface care. The skin care composition is comprised from, in percentage by weight, the followingcomponents: 1%-20% of a film-forming agent, 0.5%-10% of a thickener, 0.5%-10% of a plasticizer, 0.01%-2% of a bacteriostatic agent, 0.01%-2% of a skin-conditioning agent and the balance of solvent. After the skin care composition is applied on the skin, a transparent thin film with suitable tenacity and strength can be formed, the transparent thin film further has good wet fastness, abrasion resistance, water resistance and antibacterial activity, therefore, the damaged skin can be isolated from the outside world, is not prone to be damaged by abrasion or infected by pathogenic bacteria, remains moist and is not prone to chap, and thus damaged skin healing is facilitated; thus a very good effect of protecting diabetic feet and a sutured wound surface can be achieved, a hard-to-heal wound surface of the foot skin of a diabetic patient is prevented, and disease cause development of the diabetic feet is blocked to a certain extent; meanwhile, deterioration of a sutured wound of the sutured wound surface can be prevented, healing of the sutured wound is facilitated, and it is convenient to observe the healing condition of the wound surface.
