Opt for a banana mask

Skin along the heels lacks oil glands, making them prone to unflattering dryness and painful cracking.

New York City dermatologist Debra Jaliman, M.D., suggests softening them with a banana and honey foot mask. “The potassium in bananas moisturizes skin and the antibacterial properties in honey speed healing.”

TO DO: Combine 1 mashed banana and 2 Tbs. of honey. Rub onto heels; cover with plastic wrap. Let sit 15 minutes, then remove and wipe away excess. Use once a week for lasting results.
