The Making of the Heel Revival Regimen Kit: My Discovery to Healthy, Beautiful Feet

Let’s get real—my heels were a hot mess. Thick, crusty, and painful, they looked less like human feet and more like they belonged to a prehistoric creature roaming the desert. I tried every callus remover product, foot soak, mask, and potion I could find, but nothing worked. Most of the research I did on podiatrist websites suggested soaking my gnarly hooves—well, that just made my heels even drier. And I didn’t have time to soak my feet nightly either.

Then came my fateful encounter with those cheese grater files. I was amazed by how much skin I could shave off; it was painless, fast, and my heels actually looked human again. My heels were baby soft but hurt like hell the next morning. I thought my dry, cracked heels were bad; this was a whole new level of pain. I didn’t understand that I had completely removed the protective layer of skin on my heels, exposing tissue that wasn’t robust enough to handle the simple impact from just walking.

Enough was enough. I was sick of my nasty, cracked heels, cringing every time I moved my feet in bed and felt them snag on my expensive sheets. And as someone ready to re-enter the dating scene after over twenty years, the last thing I wanted to feel self-conscious about was my gnarly feet. According to studies 71% of women regularly suffer from cracked heels - this seemed like a problem that shouldn’t be overlooked. 

So, I embarked on a mission to revive my heels. With my background creating the original SandBar callus file, I already had a solid grasp of treating calluses on hands. The skin on your heels is similar, so I started with the foot file.

After my cheese grater fiasco, I realized that aggressively removing all the protective skin did more harm than good. Through extensive research (and my personal painful experience), I learned that you actually don’t want your feet to feel as soft as a baby’s bottom. Can you imagine how wrecked that delicate skin would be after just one day of taking the abuse your feet endure?

I knew I needed a best callus remover for feet that could smooth my rough heels without sacrificing the outer protective layer. I found the perfect grit, but I needed a handle design that would allow me to apply enough pressure. Most files on the market had thin, flat handles, making it impossible to grip properly. Those flat files couldn’t tackle the grooves where cracks formed; I needed precision to keep those dry, crusty edges filed down before they spiraled into bigger problems.

Once I perfected the heel file, I used it religiously, but it still wasn’t enough to combat the excess dry skin on my heels. I needed a way to remove the loose skin and grime before filing to preserve the life of the file and greatly reduce the amount of time I’d have to spend filing my heels.

One day, while browsing Cal Ranch, I spotted boot tread cleaners out front and had a lightbulb moment. Why not create a foot scrubber mat? This mat became my ultimate foot care tool, cleaning every nook and cranny without me having to bend over, and it felt ABSOLUTELY GLORIOUS! Using it regularly increased blood circulation in my feet—something I had no idea contributed to their gnarliness.

But I soon realized that the body wash I was using was drying my feet out. So, I called upon the chemist who helped me formulate my miraculous SandBar Salve to create a healing foot wash, and the Sole Soap was born. Packed with organic, quality ingredients, it has antibacterial and antifungal properties, healing and nourishing your feet while preventing common foot issues. Honestly, I had never really washed my feet regularly—just letting everything drizzle down was good enough, right? Not even close.

With the Sole Soap turning out so well, I decided to reformulate my  Salve  specifically for heels to create the Heel Polish. The challenge was applying it effectively; it needed to be massaged into my heels to work its magic, especially in the cracks. I searched for a fancy applicator but again ran into the pressure issue. I needed the strength of my whole hand to massage it in properly.

I was nearing my breaking point with these high-maintenance heels. I had things to do and zero time for a lengthy foot care routine. So, I integrated all the products into a daily regimen that takes less than ten minutes. Not to brag, but my feet look and feel better than they ever have—like foot-fetish worthy!

Over 50 women and a handful of men tested and helped refine the products in the Heel Revival Regimen Kit, and not just for a few days. These real people have incorporated them into their daily routines for months, ensuring that these products 1) actually work and 2) fit seamlessly into busy lives because, let’s face it, nobody has time for heel drama. You deserve to feel good in your skin—every day.

So, if you’re looking for the best callus remover for your feet, don’t stop with just a callus remover—your feet need more than that to fix your dry, cracked heels. Maintaining a healthy skin biome on your feet is essential for optimal foot health. If you’re ready to revive your feet and uncover the lust below your ankle, my new Heel Revival Regimen will literally blow your socks off! Your feet are going to feel better than ever!
