OK, this might sound a little weird, but I bought Lansinoh cream (lanolin) when I was nursing. I have found that it is really good on my heels. I use it at night, then put on the socks.
Lanolin makes perfect sense. Check the ingredients of a lot of skin care products, and you'll often find lanolin listed as an ingredient. Because it is a natural product, from sheep, it is safe for nursing mothers to use on the breast nipples.
There is a great product that comes in a container printed in a cowhide pattern -- Udder Balm, I think it's called. I've used it, with great results, on my hands and feet, too.
'Bag balm?' What was that all about, then? Or could you Guys not remember Udder Balm? I had no idea what bag balm is -- but if we are talking about the same thing, it's almost like magic. For a long time, we couldn't find the stuff, and then I started seeing it in what I mistook for some strange places. But then, if it's really used on cows, explains why I ran across it in a Feed & Supply Store.

Bag Balm is udder cream and I buy it at the feed and suply store out here in the middle of nowhere.
I am in love with the PedEgg. I don't have cracked heels but it keeps my heels sooo smooth. Can't say enough about it.
Bibit - you are gonna laugh at this one but I swear it works - at least - it has for me.
Vicks Vapor Rub. I know. Sounds crazy but essentially, VVR is just aromatherapy in vaseline, LOL - and eucalyptus is a predominant ingredient. I read several years ago that VVR would not only kill toenail fungus, but also eliminate the cracked skin on heels. So I tried it and it was miraculous. Just put it on at nite, then pull on your socks.
I love my Vietnamese mani-pedi shop and that razor blade to the heels. If I have it done and then follow up with the creams, I don't get that "hoof-like" effect. But I don't follow up, so just return regularly for pedicures and the blade.
