I'm doing something about my dry cracked gross heels!!

[Shanti]

This new year I have decided it's time for nice heels again!!!(no, not the shoe type heel, the one on my foot!) I'm so tired of looking at my feral heels and how dry and cracked the skin on them is.... it's pretty gross!

I had a pedicure (ah bliss!) when we were away in Fiji recently and my heels actually looked half decent for a change but now I need to maintain them DAILY! So i've started scrubbing them again with one of those pumistone (sp?) things and putting heel balm cream afterwards and wearing socks.... every morning and every night!!! I am determined to have nice heels! haha

Anyone else got gross feet that need a good repair? Or is it just me?

Oh mine used to be realllllly bad. They seem to have fixed themselves in the last month or so no idea how or why.
Eulactol heel balm is great stuff I used to use it a lot.

Jasp, yeah that's the stuff I have!! It's been sitting in the bathroom cupboard for too long waiting to be used! :P

We should catch up soon!

Yup, mine are disgusting!!! I had my first and only pedicure when I was 37 weeks pregnant... think it might be time to book in for another when we've got the $$$.

Yep, mine are awful I always wear sandals, apparently wearing closed shoes is better...

Anyway, I scrub it with what my mum calls a 'tennis racket' and then put apricot oil on them - works a treat! I put the cream on every night for a week, and then I get bored, so I repeat the process every few months or so, when I really get ashamed

I was actually going to start a thread about this too.

My heels are DISGUSTING! I used to be so good with looking after my feel but this year they've just gotten out of control. I have to start my foot regime again too.

I bought this thing from the pharmacy called "milky foot" which is this weird pair of booties that you wear for an hour, then rinse off your feet. About 5-10 days later all the cracked, dry skin falls off. It actually works! Only I bought it in Brissie (brookside pharmacy) and don't know where to buy them down here.

Lol, I was thinking about you yesterday. Would be good to catch up!
Your Fiji holiday sounds AWESOME

Berenice I have heard closed shoes are better too but I HATE wearing them ...probably explains a lot about my feet
