Foot creams & heel balms: Richer options for very dry feet and cracked heels, often best used regularly (especially after bathing and before bed).
Hard-skin & callus care: Ointments, scrubs and tools designed to smooth thickened areas on heels and soles—use gently and only on intact skin.
Freshness support: Powders and deodorising sprays can help reduce moisture and odour in socks and shoes.
How to choose the right option
- Match the product to the main concern: moisturise for dryness, add occasional gentle exfoliation for rough areas, and use powders or deodorising options for sweat and odour.
- Pick a texture you’ll use consistently: creams for everyday use, balms for intensive care, powders/sprays for shoes and socks.
- Be careful with hard-skin removal: avoid aggressive filing on sore, cracked, bleeding or inflamed skin.
- If symptoms suggest athlete’s foot: itching, peeling or soreness between toes may suit an appropriate pharmacy antifungal (cream, spray or powder). Follow pack directions, including how long to continue.
- Know when to ask for advice: if symptoms are severe, worsening, recurrent, involve nails, or you have diabetes, poor circulation or reduced sensation in your feet, speak to a pharmacist or GP before self-treating.

FAQs
What’s a simple routine for dry hands?
Apply a hand cream after washing and before bed. If your hands are very dry, a thicker balm can be helpful overnight. Reapply as needed and follow any label guidance for sensitive or irritated skin.
How can I support cracked heels at home?
Many people use an intensive heel balm or foot cream regularly and add gentle hard-skin care if needed. Avoid aggressive scraping, particularly if the skin is sore, cracked or bleeding.
What helps with hard skin and calluses?
Look for products designed for hard skin or callus care and use them as directed. Often, gentle exfoliation plus consistent moisturising is more comfortable than harsh removal.
What should I use for sweaty or smelly feet?
Foot powders, deodorants and sprays can help reduce moisture and odour. Dry thoroughly between toes after washing, change socks daily, and rotate shoes to support freshness.
How do I choose an athlete’s foot treatment?
Choose a format you’ll use consistently (cream, spray or powder) and follow the pack directions, including how long to continue. If symptoms don’t improve, keep coming back, or involve nails, ask a pharmacist or GP for advice.
Can I use these products if I have diabetes?
If you have diabetes, poor circulation or reduced sensation in your feet, it’s safest to get advice before treating foot problems yourself. Avoid sharp tools or aggressive hard-skin removal, and seek help early for any breaks in the skin.
