The upper skin so dry and rough that it has turned almost black. My hands and face are of same complexion, but because of my feet, I feel embarrassed sometimes at parties, if I wear sandals. Please if there are any good remedies, please share with me.

They are actually size small overshoes so my bare feet don't slip and slide too much. I still have to be a bit careful on the stairs and I can't walk up a hill outdoors until my feet have had a chance to absorb some of the moisturizer. But once I'm finished I can wash them out with soap and water if need be. All plastic boots are easy to find on the internet by searching for "PVC overshoes". I found a cute pair of white ones at: http://www.safetycompany.com/onguard-pvc-overshoes/p_3543.html Remember: You'll want to order size small or x-small because they are sized to be worn over a pair of shoes. If you order a medium or large you won't be able to keep them on your feet. If you have really small feet you might even consider children's sizes. Also beware: They MUST be made of PVC plastic. Natural rubber is not compatible with Vaseline or any of the other moisturizers discussed in this article!

Sometimes it takes 3 nights of putting the Vaseline on, then wrapping with a bandaid, but the first night makes such a difference they don't hurt anymore.

I can get by with a regular lotion @ night. One thing I've learnt is that this can be a symptom of vitamin B deficiency. Have your doctor include it in your next checkup. I'm glad I did!

Thanks for the tips Jonnie and Barbara.

Here's what I do. It comes in a 12" wide roll and you purchase it by the foot. I bought 20 " and I cut it into 4 long strips about 3" x 20". After soaking in a hot bath I dry my feet and hold each end of the sand paper and move it backwards and forwards under my heel. You can actually see the dead skin come off. Then I do the back of my heel. Don't try to take it all off the first time you do it. Then put oil/lotion on your feet, cover with socks and sleep in them. Repeat as needed. Once the rough dead skin is gone, then you keep your feet oiled and wear socks to bed every night. It does the trick just don't be too rough. Give it time.

I have had great improvement with sweet almond oil, apricot kernal oil, jojoba oil, rice bran oil, and shea oil. All are quickly absorbed into the dry skin and show quick results. I found these oils on ebay and you can also get them scented with different scents. I like the cherry spice scent myself. Hope this help with feet, legs and elbows.

I have been doing this for years and it works great. I started doing this because most fragrances, including baby oil scent makes me sneeze. The other thing you can do is use Crisco instead of lotion. Crisco isn't just for cooking anymore!
