foot lotion cracked heel

Most cracked-heel lotions target dry and very dry skin. Many formulas also list suitability for sensitive, normal, and combination skin, and a few note use for oily skin as well.

Manufacturers commonly recommend nightly application: apply a liberal amount before bed, optionally cover feet (for example with cotton socks) for an overnight treatment, and repeat daily until skin improves.

Common exfoliating ingredients include salicylic acid, urea, and alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs).
