Dry skin on feet - what works?

One of the side effects of getting older is that the skin on my feet and ankles has become extremely dry. What would you knowledgeable Dibbers recommend to fix this?. Only stipulation is it can't have a floral scent especially rose. Any help appreciated.

I get very thick skin on my feet, the only thing I have found to work is flexitol I think that would work well.

You could use Footner - amazing results but gross and hard work for 2 weeks.
Otherwise either Margaret Dabbs or Flexitol

Used to have pretty dry skin including around my feet and used to really like the Body Shop peppermint foot cream! To be fair though I never tried other types, as this was the first one I tried and it seemed to work well enough for me...

Oh yeah Footner!
I think I actually read about that on the Dibb
I did use it quite a few times, usually 2 weeks before a holiday!
What I DON'T like about it (apart from the gross-zombie-looking peeling! ) is that it takes a layer off ALL your foot and not just the problem areas. Area that were soft and nice to start with.
I did toy with trying to just apply it to my heels etc but couldn't think of a way to do that, to keep the 'plastic sock on effect' but just for those areas.

Yes I know what you mean! There is a new mousse spray that does very similar but not quite as strong but it’s instant. Footlogix it’s called
