Having a mean toe game is cute, but having dry, cracked feet to match are the ultimate “no-no.”
Like many of the best beauty regimens, the cure for any problem starts
from the inside out. Before applying any products, drinking adequate
amounts of water becomes highly important in preventing and/or treating cracked or dry feet. Water naturally hydrates and moisturizes the body and is key
to maintaining soft and smooth skin.
For feet prone to cracking and roughness we suggest using foot
scrubs, or foot soaks that use natural ingredients such as thyme, twice a
week.After scrubbing and exfoliating your feet, find nourishing lotions
and oils that help seal in moisture also prevent feet from cracking and
drying out. When using lotions or oils, put them on at night, and wrap feet in
heavy white socks, for the moisture to penetrate in skin. By doing this
daily, feet will stay moisturized and be less likely to get dry and
cracked.
While proper care for your feet can’t be neglected, conditions like
dermatitis, psoriasis, and even diabetes can also contribute to dry
cracked skin feet. Not treating your feet can eventually cause fissures,
or tears, that make walking painful.
