Soft And Smooth Feet More or less we do take out some time to take care of our face but we often forget the most affected feet. It is preferable to clean your feet first so as to get rid of germs and odor. For that, soak your feet in warm water (7 – 8 cups) to which add about 1/2 cup Apple Cider Vinegar as it will help reducing the bacteria count and subsequently the odor. Now, apply Vaseline to the sole of your feet and then put on socks before going to sleep. Vaseline will heal your cracked heels leaving it soft and smooth. 2. Cure Puffy Eyes The first and foremost thing you need to consider is a good 6-8 hours sleep. Where there could be other reasons of puffy eyes like allergy, genetics or late nights.

So, you need to do something for chapped lips before going to sleep and that is moisturize. You can use the one and only petroleum jelly – Vaseline to get soft and beautiful lips. 4.
