Thick Dead Skin on Feet

Do you have thick dead skin on feet?  Many people do and they can be hard to get rid of.  Thick calluses on your feet are unsightly and you can minimize them and possibly, get rid of those unsightly callouses.

Friction

When there is friction or rubbing on your skin, you are going to get calluses.  Skin does this in order to help protect us against more damage.  Our bodies were made to help us – which is really cool.  Ill-fitting clothes that rub against skin can cause calluses.   It’s important to wear things that fit us properly – including shoes…

Thick dead skin on feet

Think of when you wear shoes that are too tight.  Another cause is if you walk outside barefoot.  Bare feet can stay pretty if you just stay off the pavement.  If you walk barefoot, skin is rubbing on the pavement and will give you very unsightly calluses.  That thick dead skin on feet you are dealing with is because of the friction – either against shoes or rough pavement.

And, if you’re a runner, you need to take care of your feet.

Other body parts that get thick dead skin

Or, maybe you have calluses on your knuckles.  If this is a problem for you, you may be holding your pen too hard.  Ease up and you may notice an improvement.  Depending on how you hold your pen, this thick skin may be on your middle finger.

Other solutions

Other things you can do to help is to stay hydrated.  Skin needs water to stay smooth so water will always help.  Next, use a cream to help alleviate the issues.  Do this especially after exfoliating and you should notice a big improvement in your skin softness.

For foot calluses, be patient.  Use a natural foot scrubber like the Nutt So Ruff foot scrub.  First soak fee in warm water for up to 15 minutes.  It will help soften the calluses and make them easier to exfoliate.  Gently rub the thick dead skin with your exfoliator.

For people that have very thick calluses, don’t think you’re going to remove the entire callus the first time.  It will take some time to remove a callus that has been there awhile.  Be patient and consistent and you’ll get there.  Once done exfoliating, dry your feet thoroughly and then moisturize.  Then, keep it up to continue to get results.

So do calluses go away?  They can, but it can take time.  Take care of your skin (anywhere you have callus issues).  Don’t skip skin care just as you wouldn’t skip basic hygiene.  Feel good about yourself and in order to do that, take care of yourself.   Then you’ll feel good both on the outside and the inside!
