Dry feet... how to stop it?!


Question: my partner gets dry feet. I think it's because she's on her feet at work around 10-14hrs a day, wears a pair of thick explorer (woolen) socks as well as another slim pair over them, and then wears her steel toe lace ups.
Does anyone know of any good ideas to help feet not be so dry?
I thought maybe a footspa each night or something but having said all of this... Could her feet just be toughening up?
Thanks :)

People will suggest vaseline + socks --- don't try it.
Vaseline is pure petroleum and actually hardens skin (cheap product contrary to what people think)..

The best idea is a salt scrub for the shower.. (sea salt)
or make your own with olive oil/kosher salt it helps get away the rough -
Pick up a stone at the drug store in the foot section and use it in the shower (pumice).. it helps a lot.

Vaseline (the brand not product) makes a great Cocoa Gel pure cocoa butter it's a wonderful soothing product I highly suggest it for the shower and slip on a pair of socks.

Herbal foot creams (Dr. Scholls) too help -

Best of all a Pedicure. :)

how bout you give her a foot massage every now and then. yeah that could be the problem but she should use vaseline on her feet before she puts on her socks.
