Step 1: Melt the Candle Wax
Cut a small piece of the white candle and place it in a heat-safe bowl.
Carefully melt the wax using:
- A microwave in short intervals, or
- A double boiler method
⚠️ Be careful — hot wax can burn the skin.
Step 2: Add Moisturizing Ingredients
Once the wax melts:
- Add coconut oil or olive oil
- Add petroleum jelly
- Stir well until smooth
The mixture should become creamy as it cools slightly.
Step 3: Wash and Soak Your Feet
Before applying the remedy:
- Wash your feet with warm water
- Soak them for 10–15 minutes
- Gently scrub dead skin using a pumice stone or foot scrubber
- Dry thoroughly with a towel
This helps the treatment absorb better.
Step 4: Apply the Mixture
While the mixture is still warm (not hot):
- Rub a generous amount onto cracked heels
- Massage for several minutes
Focus especially on dry and rough areas.
Step 5: Wear Socks Overnight
After applying:
- Put on clean cotton socks
- Leave the treatment on overnight
By morning, many people notice softer and smoother skin.
Step 6: Repeat if Needed
For best results:
- Repeat daily for several days
- Moisturize your feet regularly afterward
Deep cracks may take more time to heal completely.
