The Dead Sea’s saline waters have long been thought to help psoriasis, eczema and arthritis sufferers. But a salty soak is also excellent for ridding feet of dead skin. Now we don’t suggest travelling to the Middle East every time your feet get on the dry side. Instead, try the Dead Sea Spa Magik’s Bath Salts. One handful of these 100% natural salts in a warm tub will soften skin sufficiently to rid feet of unsightly rough patches.

But if you don’t have the luxury of a seaside residence, a good foot scrub has (almost) the same effect. Neal’s Yard’s organic version combines peach seed and pumice (the exfloliating agents) with softening mallow and cleansing ginger mint to gently buff away rough skin.
