If your feet are in desperate need of some TLC, this is the foot scrub for you. It contains pumice and citrus to scrub off dead skin cells. It also has essential oils to make sure your feet are left feeling silky, smooth, and hydrated. Bonus: Eucalyptus, lemon, and lavender make&nbsp;stuff smells like an actual dream.

Peppermint is my favorite scent—I just think it makes everything smell fresher and cleaner—so you can imagine my excitement at finding this foot soak enhanced with peppermint and tea tree oil. It also contains 20 minerals that are found in Dead Sea salt that help smooth your skin. After a soak, definitely use a <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Pumice-Stone-Pedicure-Exfoliation-Scrubber/dp/B01JTFFPRE/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?crid=CZEJ9F208QAI&keywords=foot+pumice+stone&qid=1560184521&s=gateway&sprefix=foot+pumice%2Caps%2C135&sr=8-2-spons&psc=1">pumice stone</a> to fully remove all of the dead skin that’s still hanging on.

This brown sugar scrub is perfect for your feet—especially if you have calluses or scarring—because in addition to providing general exfoliation, it contains alpha-hydroxy acid to help heal your skin. The brown sugar is also much more gentle than a salt, so if you have sensitive skin this is for you.

OK, a nipple cream may seem like a weird choice, but hear me out. Apply a little bit of this stuff to your heels or any other rough part of your feet before bed, and you’ll wake up with dramatically softer feet. Because it’s intended to relieve nipple soreness from breastfeeding, it also really helps with sore blisters or raw, sandal-rubbed toes. This is a tip I learned from my mom and it’s a keeper.

Lanolin Nipple Cream

The Body Shop really knocked it out of the park with this foot scrub. It contains peppermint oil and volcanic rock granules to leave your feet feeling softer than a newborn baby's skin. For some extra freshness, this scrub contains menthol, which will leave your feet feeling super soothed.

Peppermint Reviving Pumice Exfoliating Foot Scrub

In addition to cocoa butter, this food scrub has vitamin E, making it super thick, rich and moisturizing. It comes in a little tube that would be perfect to bring with you on summer vacations so that you could continue to use it while you’re on the go.

If blisters and rough skin are your concern, this TheraTree scrub is the solution. It contains micro volcanic pumice and white willowbark, which&nbsp;both help exfoliate. It’s also great at soothing dryness and itchiness, all while acting as a disinfectant to remove odor and bacteria.

Tea Tree Oil Exfoliating Scrub with Bamboo Charcoal

Himalyan salt has been a very trendy ingredient in the past couple of years, and that’s for good reason. It contains calcium, magnesium, potassium, and helps to purify. This scrub is chock full of all of the above, as well as lychee oil, which has antioxidants and skin-brightening vitamin C. It also smells amazing.

Kerasal Intensive Foot Repair is the cream to call in when your feet are at their worst. It deeply moisturizes, but it also loosens and removes hard, cracked skin. For super fast results, I recommend lathering up your feet, and then putting socks on over the lotion before bed. You’ll be amazed in the morning.

Ditch the salon pedicure and opt for an at-home foot mask. These little masks are like super moisturizing socks. They contain macadamia oil along with other moisturizers, and only require a 20 minute soak.

These Burt’s Bees lotions come in a pack of three, which makes the price much more justifiable. They contain peppermint oil and a blend of vegetable-based glycerin and coconut oil. This is the perfect lotion to apply daily in order to keep your feet looking their best.

Peppermint Foot Lotion

This is my favorite foot cream, hands down.&nbsp;I think it’s the thickest, most hydrating formula that I’ve ever tried. It’s jam-packed with shea butter, as well as vitamins A, C and E. I also find it very soothing if your feet are sore or blistered.
