Cracked and dry heels are not comfortable, and not nice to look at either. But unfortunately, it’s a common problem that affects many.
Step 1: Foot Bath
Fill a footbath with lukewarm water. Add two tablespoons of bicarbonate and two tablespoons of salt. Stir well and soak your feet in the bath.
Let them soak for 15 minutes, then scrub your feet with a pumice stone. Gently pat the feet dry with a towel.
Step 2: Massage
In a bowl, mix two tablespoons of oil with a tablespoon of sugar.
Massage the mixture gently into your feet for 5 minutes. Then rinse your feet with clean water.
Step 3: Soften
Take a new bowl and mix two tablespoons of oil with a small amount of candle wax. Place the bowl in some warm water until the contents melt.
Let the mixture cool and massage it into your feet. Finish by putting on a pair of clean, soft socks before going to bed.
