How To Clean Up Years Of Cracked And Dead Skin Right Now!
Foot Scrub
An excellent foot scrub can help diminish the dead skin cells on your feet with as little as one use. Most pharmacies and drug stores carry foot scrubs for relatively cheap; look for one with granules to help scrub the skin away. You can also make your own scrub by diluting two tablespoons of sea salt into equal amounts of baby oil and lemon juice.
How to use
Apply the foot scrub to wherever you find dead skin and rub gently with your palm, use a foot scrub brush or sponge to remove the dead skin.
Oatmeal Scrub
That's right; oatmeal can be used to remove dead skin. Mix equal parts of oatmeal with rose water or milk to make a paste.
How to use
Apply the scrub and let it rest for 20-30 minutes. Use a foot brush to exfoliate your skin, rinse with cold water, and apply a soothing cream.
Epsom Salt Soak Scrub
Epsom salt is a crystal form of magnesium sulfate and can be useful for exfoliating and smoothing out dry skin on your feet.
How to use
Create an Epsom salt soak by pouring .5 a cup of salt into a footbath full of warm water or a bathtub full of warm water. Soak for 20 minutes, and finish the treatment using a foot brush to help remove dry skin.
Vinegar Soak
Vinegar is another excellent tool to use for removing dead or cracked skin.
How to use
Use cold water to create a soak, use one or two parts vinegar, and soak feet for 5-10 minutes. After, apply moisturizer, petroleum jelly, or coconut oil before putting on socks to seal in moisture completely.
Lemon Water Scrub
Lemons are very acidic, which means that it's an excellent option to use when it comes to removing dead skin cells. Avoid this treatment if you currently have any cuts or sores on your feet and try out our other scrubs instead.
How To Use
Prepare a foot bath or bathtub with warm water. Next, squeeze one whole lemon into the water, and soak your feet for 15 minutes. Use a foot brush or sponge to scrub off the dead skin after bathing. Finally, apply moisturizer or coconut oil.
Razor Or Scraper
This is not something you can do yourself, but you can book an appointment with a podiatrist or other trained medical professionals so they can do it for you.
Baking Soda Soak
Use 2-3 tablespoons in a foot bath or bathtub with warm water, soak 10-20 minutes, use a sponge or foot brush to remove dead skin, and moisturize.
Remember that the best way to prevent dead skin from occurring in the first place is by moisturizing the skin on your feet regularly. Just like your face, hands, or any other part of your body, dead skin occurs when it's dry and then proceeds to crack. Over time it can get out of control, or at least it feels that way, but by using all of our scrubs that we listed above, you will see results in no time!
