i wear sandal at home - those suppose to wear in the house.

It helps.

For heel intensive treatment, at night apply rich creame at the feet then wear socks overnight. Same goes for hand- for hand wear glove lah.

go to manicure pedicure shop and buy the lotion over there! that place might help... any idea wat causes cracked heels? :blink:

wear heels too often instead of closed end shoes...d air surrounding will make skin at d heels dry...plus,if ur feet is wet,d air will absorb d water n make d heel area more dry than usual

hmm..i usually will wet my feet..then use pumice stone 2 scrub my heels..but not too hard of course....will use soap too..those kinda soap esp 4 feet...then after tht wash off d soap n dry my feet..after tht apply lotion on d heels...but haha..lazy 2 do tht often..so i still hv cracked heels often :P

juenlil : er didn't check how many ml.

I went to Jusco Belakong today and did a callus / feet treatment at RM39

It is a promotion booth by "Feet Master"

They do the treatment for 30 minutes and i can see my feet callus (Cracked heel) gone!

My heel look like baby heel now :wub:

This is what they did

Step 1 product ( dunno what it call but 30ml at RM79) and scrub my feet using a 2 sided pad scrub/ File (dunno what it call). First with the rough side. Then the smooth side.

Ah i found similiar product online here :rolleyes:

Step 2 product (Forgot how many ml RM99) something like ginvera marvel gel. Scrub away dead cell.

Step 3 - apply lotion

ya ! That is what i did.

Maybe you should give it a try. You would know what mean.

But the step 1 product selling at RM79-30ml I find it expensive.

Some more- the people there keep putting the step 1 product on the buffer. To smooth my heel.

As you cannot buffer heel in dry state.

I think she use a lot.

Anyway, i found an alternative "Callus Eliminator" from USA.

Interested PM me!

sukkimi, yes i bumped into the same thing.They're called 'Feet master' rt?Apparently their main office is located in Penang.The guy explained to me just now how the stuff can remove the hard calluses on our feet.He saw one of my foot and said my callus is very hard and suggested a treatment by him (rm 39 one) and a purchase of 2 products.I tot the 'skin softening lotion' (marvel gel type) was abt rmRM20-30 , i was soo shockedd when he told me its RM 99 for that small bott??and the big one is abt RM 300?wallaaaa I think its abt the size of an average liquid handsoap dispenser.

so pricey la ayoo! but then he tested the skin softening lotion at the back of my palm, yes all the dead cells like small tissuish particles rolled up and instantly felt smooth!Did ur place told that this lotion can be used on our body as well?But only twice a week..

Sadly, i felt its way toooo expensive..just pass it...

I wonder if i can find the exact product online..who knows we can get cheaper..he said its frm France

anybody have any idea on how to cure this???other than ellgy plus...

will leg spa help?

for cracked heels its a come and go..yes,leg spa help but if nothing is done to maintain the smoothness @ the end of the treatment,i dare say the problem will come again.that is because our feet tends to be one of the most neglected body parts.

nothing beats monthly maintainence spa pedicure,be it professionally done or D.I.Y @ home.

having foot scrub is one of the most important tools for D.I.Y feet treatment @ home

then wearing a cotton socks to bed every night for 8 hours after applying & massage a rich thick foot cream always bring baby smooth heels :)

m a living proof that ,i have got smooth baby heels after monthly maintence for pedicure and also daily mini hydrating foot treatment

i read somewhere that its also good to put on lotion or body moisturizer b4 covering up with socks. it'll really moisturize ur heels.

if im not mistaken, beyonce (or someone else) practices this too :D (info just 4 fun)

but i myself have nvr tried it though. too lazy :P

Scrub your heels with pumice stone and then moisturize it with a cracked heel cream. My heels has improved tremendously though not baby smooth. It helps if you wear socks after putting on the cream on your heels though I am too lazy for it :P

My feet gets dry if I'm wearing flip flops..So what I do is put on an intensive hydrating lotion on my feet and cover them before I go to bed. Feet will get smooth the morning after =)
