How to Cure Cracked Heels

Help cure your cracked heels.

If you have cracked heels, they are an indication that you are probably overlooking the most used part of the body. Since, the skin around the feet is dry, it cracks easily from overexposure and not providing enough moisture to your feet.

Things You'll Need

• Milk (optional)
• Pumice stone
• Towel

Instructions

1. Soak feet in warm soap water for 15 to 20 minutes before you go to be. Along with the water, you can add a cup of milk. This will soften the skin and loosen a little dirt.

2. Scrub your heels with a pumice stone. Rinse them with warm water and pat dry. Make sure you dry between toes.

3. Moisturize with cocoa butter or any moisture rich foot cream.

Tips & Warnings

• Prevent cracked heels by wearing shoes that cover your feet; this will help keep the moist.

• Drink a lot of water to help keep you hydrated.

• Use a humidifier if you live in a dry area.

• Never go barefoot in lawns and yards.
