Natural remedies for cracked heels

The winter season is still going strong and it's only getting colder and colder by the day. And while we all enjoy the chilly weather, what we really don't like is its ability to dry up the skin. And even though we often pay a lot of attention to our skincare routine, plenty of us tend to forget about our feet; more importantly, our heels. So, like us, if you've ended up neglecting your heels and they're now cracked because of the cold weather, here are some natural remedies that might help.

-Exfoliate your feet at least twice a week. Soak them in warm water for about 20 minutes to soften up your skin and then use a loofah or pumice stone to scrub them. The dryness will be gone in no time.

-Opt for some coconut oil. Its natural moisturising properties will work wonders on your feet and will hydrate them enough to get rid of the cracks.

-Use honey as a mask on your feet. After washing and scrubbing your feet, apply some honey to them and let it sit for about 20 minutes. Rinse it off afterwards and you'll notice an immediate difference.
