Yogurt Foot Mask

A foot mask made with whole-milk yogurt can be beneficial due to its lactic acid content, which helps to boost collagen and exfoliate dry skin.

Wear Protective Footwear

Avoid walking barefoot as direct pressure from your weight on hard surfaces can exacerbate cracked heels

Diaper-Rash Cream

For skin that requires extra moisture, consider using diaper-rash cream. Its heavy moisturizers form a protective barrier, helping your feet to heal and soften​

Layered Moisturization

For deeper moisturization, apply a thick layer of lotion or Vaseline to your feet after the initial oil treatment.

Oil Treatment

Apply olive oil, almond oil, or your preferred scented oil to your feet. Massaging the oil into your nail beds and cuticles can act as a DIY foot moisturizer.

Exfoliate Regularly

Use a loofah, pumice stone, or a small brush to gently remove the dead skin from your feet.

Moisturize After Exfoliation

After exfoliating, soak your feet in warm water for about 10 minutes to soften the skin further.
