Dry, cracked heels can be uncomfortable, but a simple lemon-based remedy offers relief. “The skin on our feet, particularly on the heels, is prone to becoming dry and rough,” warns experts. Lack of moisture leads to painful cracks, making a solution crucial.
Ingredients:
- 1 large, ripe lemon
- A pair of socks
- Nourishing oil or cream (coconut or argan oil)
Steps:
- Choose a ripe lemon: Opt for a very yellow, not too firm lemon.
- Prep your feet: “Soak your feet in warm water to soften the skin,” advises professionals.
- Lemon application: “Rub the lemon on your heels, focusing on trouble spots.”
- Moisturize: “Apply a deeply nourishing oil or cream.”
- Sock it up: “Put on socks to lock in moisture overnight.” This easy remedy promises softer, rejuvenated heels.
