Try a lotion you can probably get from most pharmacies called Zim's Crack Creme. It's a horrible name, but it works really well. You might also want to treat yourself to a pedicure that includes a parafin wax treatment. Exfoliate your feet with a pumice stone, lotion your feet at least twice daily, and wear cotton socks to bed after you've lotioned. Also try to lotion after you bathe, as your skin will be softer and it will be easier to absorb moisture. Lotions with tea tree extracts are great for feet too. Pamper them- they do all the work all the time. They're worth it. :)

I use a hand cream that contains Alo Vera, also if you get one with peppermint in it it keeps your feet cool and feels great. Apply the cream once a day for a few days then 2 or 3 times a week. Enjoy

Well if this condition also causes itching you need medical attention.Try a solution of white vinegar and tepid water Bathe your feet in this solution every night for 20mins.Should help.Wash socks in same solution after bathing feet.Leave socks to steep for at least 2hrs.Then wash socks in mild soapy water.Don;t wear socks unless they are clean and thoroughly dry

Use Eucerin lotions. They make some especially for feet.

if they are really dry you can put BAG BALM on them and wear cotton socks to bed...good as new in the morning and it is not very expensive. You can get it at Walmart....in a small green can.

you have to put lotion on them every day. it also helps if you wear socks. i put lotion on my feet and then put socks on to sleep in. also if you exfoliate them. if your feet are extremely dry, there are lotions specifically made for feet.
