Dry, cracked heels and rough toes make feet look older and feel uncomfortable. The fix isn’t harsh scrubbing or quick “instant” hacks — it’s a simple, consistent routine that hydrates, gently exfoliates, and protects your skin barrier. Follow this realistic two-week plan to get softer, smoother, brighter-looking feet at home.
Why Heels Crack (and Look Dull)
- Dehydration: low moisture + winter air + frequent washing
- Friction & pressure: sandals, shoes, and standing long hours
- Over-exfoliation: daily harsh scrubbing that weakens the barrier
- Sun exposure: uneven tone and tan on toes and top of feet
Goal: Rebuild moisture, remove dead skin gently, and protect to prevent re-cracking.
What You’ll Need
- SACHET Hand & Foot Brightening Cream (daily hydration + brightening)
- SACHET Hand & Foot Skin Polish (creamy exfoliation, 2–3×/week)
- SACHET Hand & Foot Brightening Scrub (textured exfoliation option)
- Socks (thin cotton) for overnight softening
- Optional day protection: Mineral Sunscreen SPF 70 or Aloe Vera Gel Sunscreen SPF 50
2-Week Routine (Step-by-Step)
Week 1: Repair & Reset
- Nightly cleanse & pat dry. Prefer lukewarm water.
- Exfoliate 2–3× this week (not daily): Use Skin Polish or Brightening Scrub. Massage gently for 30–60 seconds, rinse, and pat dry.
- Seal with cream (PM): Apply a generous layer of Hand & Foot Brightening Cream, focusing on heels, knuckles, and toes.
- Overnight socks (2–3 nights): Wear thin cotton socks after cream for intense softness.
- Morning top-up: Apply a light layer of cream on dry areas. If feet are exposed, finish with Glow Boost Moisturizer Sunscreen SPF 65 or your preferred Mineral SPF 70.
Week 2: Smooth & Maintain
- Exfoliate 2× this week only. Keep it gentle; consistency beats force.
- Nightly cream: Continue Hand & Foot Brightening Cream. Add a second layer on deep cracks.
- Overnight socks (1–2 nights): Maintain softness without over-occlusion.
- Daytime protection: If you wear sandals or drive, use SPF 50 Gel Sunscreen or Mineral SPF 70 on exposed areas to prevent re-darkening.
Results Timeline (What to Expect)
| Days 1–3 | Feels more comfortable; dryness starts to ease |
| Days 4–7 | Roughness reduces; heels look softer and less flaky |
| Days 8–14 | Smoother texture; tone looks more even on heels & toes |
Do’s & Don’ts
- Do: apply cream every night; wear socks on treatment nights; moisturize after showers.
- Do: trim dead skin carefully (if needed) after soaking — never force peel.
- Don’t: scrub daily; pick at cracks; use harsh bleaches on feet.
- Don’t: skip SPF if your feet are exposed to sun while driving or walking.

FAQs
How fast can cracked heels improve?
Most people feel relief within a few days; visible smoothing usually shows within 1–2 weeks with nightly cream and 2–3 exfoliation sessions per week.
Should I exfoliate every day?
No. Daily heavy scrubbing can worsen cracks. Limit to 2–3× weekly and be gentle.
Why use sunscreen on feet?
Sun exposure darkens toes and the top of feet. SPF helps prevent re-darkening and supports an even tone.
Which is better: Skin Polish or Scrub?
Both work. Start with the creamy Skin Polish for sensitive or very dry feet; use the Brightening Scrub when you need more texture.
