01. Do not wash feet with hot water
Even though hot water may be soothing in the colder months, it’s not a good option for your skin. It takes away the natural moisture of the skin, leaving feet dry. To avoid this, it is best to take a lukewarm bath. But if you really want to take a hot bath, limit the shower time to 10 minutes.

02. Exfoliate Regularly
Since the skin on your feet is thicker than most of your body, it cracks more easily under pressure. The best way to keep the skin soft is to exfoliate it regularly. It prevents the formation of dry and dead skin, which will keep your skin soft in winters.
03. Regularly Apply Foot Cream
Just like you apply body lotion every single day to keep your skin soft and supple, it is important to moisturize your feet too. Remember to apply a hydrating foot cream right after the shower. This will seal the moisture in your skin. Apart from this, apply foot cream even before going to bed and then sleep wearing socks.
