A short, informal how-to from board-certified dermatologist Shereene Idriss demonstrating a DIY foot mask for dry, cracked feet using a urea-based lotion, kitchen Saran Wrap, and socks. Key procedural tips: spread the wrap ahead of time, use a generous amount of lotion, wrap feet tightly in Saran Wrap, then cover with socks and sleep (or sit through a TV show) for baby-soft results. The clip includes playful asides (sparkly teal socks; makeup artist Namvo quote) and a pro-tip to avoid moisturizing your hands before handling the wrap.

How to get baby soft feet from the comfort of your home with just one product and household items from your board certified dermatologist. Grab your favorite urea based lotion and your Saran Wrap from the kitchen. Spread out the Saran Wrap ahead of time. This is a pro tip so you don't have to do this after your hands get moisturized because trust me, they will then go to town with that lotion. And yes, it's a lot. Massage it into your feet, get it all in there and then take that Saran Wrap and wrap your little feet like tiny little dewy dumplings like my favorite makeup artist Namvo says. And once you're at this step, you grab your favorite pair of socks. Mine are always sparkly. We're going with teal on this one. And you cover them up and you go to sleep with them. By the time you wake up they're going to be as soft as a baby's butt. And if you do not have the patience of sleeping with them, catch a TV show and enjoy the view. I'm talking about my socks and not the tv. Enjoy.
