Extreme temperatures, age, health conditions and genetics can all cause cracks on the underside of your feet. Dry feet are no fun, but have no fear: with these 4 easy make-at-home remedies, you’ll get your feet soft and silky smooth in no time!

Remedy 1: Sweet, Sweet Relief

Take equal parts of olive oil and brown sugar. Scrub this mixture on your feet, using your hands. Pay special attention to cracked portions; once you’ve scrubbed your feet thoroughly, wash the scrub off using cool water.

Remedy 2: Jelly Legs Feet

Slather a generous amount of soothing petroleum jelly onto your feet. This is a two-fold remedy: your feet are moisturized by petroleum jelly, plus it seals the moisture inside your skin, healing existing cracks.

Remedy 3: Sensual Soak

If you have a tiny bottle of essential oil, there’s nothing like a warm foot bath. Simply add 5 drops of tea tree oil into lukewarm water, and soak your feet in there for 10 minutes. Repeat this 3-5 times each week.

Remedy 4: Cleopatra’s Secret

Take cues from the Egyptian queen, who knew the value of a milk bath for glowing, healthy skin. Nutrient-rich milk rebuilds stronger skin cells, and you can add a dab of honey: it prevents moisture loss by keeping natural moisture in.

If you’ve got dry feet, these 4 remedies should do the trick. Say goodbye to unsightly cracks, and say hello to healthy, soft feet!
