Hey! Thanks zoya! This seems helpful! But can you please suggest an alternative to oatmeal? I'll and keep them moisturised now!

The sign of cracked heels is having dry, thickened skin known as callouses, around the rim of your heel. As you walk, the fat pad under your heel expands. This causes your callouses to crack. Other factors that can also cause cracked heels are standing for long hours; walking around barefoot or with open-back sandals; taking long, hot showers; using harsh soaps that can strip your skin of natural oils; shoes that don’t fit properly or support your heels; dry skin due to the climate such as cold temperatures or low humidity.

If you don’t moisturize your feet regularly, they may dry out even faster. it may take several days or weeks for the cracks to heal. During and after this time, wear shoes that fit properly and practice proper foot care to help prevent new heel cracks.

Home remedies which will help in smoothening the heels - Oats snd olive mask. Method to make this DIY mask is as follows: Take 4 drops olive oil, one tablespoon powdered oats and mix the ingredients into a thick paste. Apply the paste on the dry and cracked parts of your foot. Leave on for half an hour. Rinse, dry and then moisturise it properly. Do this every alternate day until you see a difference in your feet. This Remedy works great as Oatmeal has anti-inflammatory and moisturising properties. It’s good for healing cracked, dry skin and to get instant result for smooth heels you can try Innisfree foot mask as well! 😊

But that'll actually stain the bedsheet! That's one big issue with coconut oil! Will moisturise it with something else from no on!
