The skin on the heels is thicker than on other parts of the body and tends to calluse or crack. There can be many reasons for this, from too many steps during the day to inappropriate footwear. Instead of reaching for creams from the drugstore, it is worth rebuilding with home methods.
The product from your kitchen is great for dry heels. Reach for apple cider vinegar
A product that works great in foot care is apple cider vinegar. We usually use it in the kitchen, but not everyone knows that it is also useful in skin care. Apple vinegar can be used to prepare hair rinses, face wash tonics, but also helps in rebuilding dry and rough skin on the heels. It has antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral properties. It perfectly copes with foot mycosis, fights unpleasant odor, helps to get rid of corns, but also helps to remove dead epidermis, and additionally softens dry skin. Soaking your feet in vinegar does not require any special preparation. Just pour warm but not hot water into a bowl, add a cup of vinegar and soak your feet for 15 minutes. Then dry them and put on cotton socks. It is worth soaking your feet in vinegar just before going to bed. The effect should be obtained after just one application.

Bread for dry heels? Make a compress from a slice or heel
Soaking the feet in vinegar should help, but if our calluses are large and the skin is badly cracked, just soaking the feet may not be enough. Then a slice comes to the rescue. Soak a slice of bread in a bowl with vinegar, and when it is soaked, put it on your heels and wrap it in a towel or other material, and then put on socks. A compress of vinegar and bread is worth keeping all night. Remember, if you feel any tingling or discomfort, remove the compress from your feet quickly.
