Sandal season is only a few weeks away — so in the immortal words of Mariah Carey, “It’s TIIIIIIIIIIIME.”

Promising review: "I tried EVERYTHING! I tried tree tea oil for years and various different products. Nothing worked. The reviews were so great on this that I decided to try to cure it one more time. But when you have had a condition for 35 years, you aren’t too hopeful! I followed the suggestions of some of the reviewers and cut my toenails (I only had it on my big toes) everywhere that the fungus was present. Even below the quick. I started applying this gel, which is super easy to use. I swear to you that I noticed a difference after one application." —WIAPilot 

Get it from Amazon for $19.29 (also available with nail files, in a patch version and in packs of two). 

You can also use it on elbows, knees, and sensitive hands.

After writing about this a couple of times and feeling pressure from my very dry toesies after showering, I decided to give this a try, and y'all, I'm a convert for LIFE. I am terrible about moisturizing my feet after I shower, but because I live in such a dry climate, it can become v painful if I don't. What I really love about this is the applicator. It makes it so easy to get around my feet evenly. Here's the thing, though — it's not greasy, but it can still be slippery if you're walking around barefoot on the ground right after you put it on. So, I make sure to give it a few minutes to absorb, or I keep my slippers close if I have to get up right after putting it on. But it has truly been a game-changer for me. My feet feel so much softer, and the moisture lasts throughout the day! Best under-$10 purchase I've made this year. 

Promising review: "Do not hesitate to try this product if you have a hard skin problem on your feet. It takes a few days to see a difference, but now I can see a change. Just like that, the skin on my pinky toe is not rock solid anymore. Bye bye, pain — and I am not joking." —Majda

Get it from Amazon for $7.98 (also available in a pack of two).

They estimate that your skin should start shedding between 6–11 days after application.

Dermora is a small biz that offers skincare solutions for your face and feet in the form of lip, eye, and foot masks.

Promising review: "Let me start off by saying this mask is absolutely amazing! My friend and I decided to split the pack of booties and have a girls' night in. We are amazed at the results we got from the booties. On day five, the magic started to happen. Our feet started to peel, and by days 10 and 12, we were both done peeling, and our feet were super soft!" —Yaara E.

Get a two-pack from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in two scents and in a pack of four).

Folks who have hammer toe, bunions, plantar fasciitis swear by these!

Promising review: "It really does feel good to get your toes spread apart. It is, in fact, therapeutic and relaxing. I'm happy, and I think I may get some as gifts. They are easy to clean and pretty too! I am a tired mama, and I will take all the self-care hacks I can get! Easy to put on. They also stay put even when doing little foot stretching movements like curling your toes." —Amazon Customer

They may also help with foot pain by helping reduce inflammation and improving circulation, according to Cleveland Clinic.

Promising review: "These help my plantar fasciitis pain more than anything else I’ve tried! I use them with an orthopedic shoe, but they make regular shoes bearable, too. I bought one pair and was so pleased with them, I bought two more the next week." —Jennifer Watts

Promising review: "Worked so well I took off too much dead skin! My feet look brand new! I’ve tried so many different files or pumice stones for feet and none work like this. A better callous remover than the most expensive pedicure one can buy." —Judy Ann Farris

You can also use it on gym bags, boxing gloves, and anywhere else you think needs a refreshing spritz!

Lumi Outdoors is a small biz that creates odor-eliminating products using natural ingredients

Promising review: "I use this a few times a week, after my evening shower, and then slip on socks. My feet look like I’ve just had a pedicure the next day!" —Melrstx

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord has this to say about them: "I'm a long-ish distance runner, and these were certainly an interesting experience for my feet! You slide them on and, after a few minutes, feel a tingling, mildly burning (in a good way) sensation. It doesn't quite numb your feet, but it relaxes them. I kept them on for 30 minutes and then toweled my feet off, and the tingling sensation slowly faded over the next 30 minutes. After that, my feet felt very refreshed and relaxed at a time of day when they're usually aching from all the miles I put in. The whole thing was a mess-free, easy process, and I will definitely keep them on hand for longer run days!" 

Promising review: "Omg this soothed my feet after a long day of walking. My poor feet were so rejuvenated afterward and felt so nice and soft. Even my husband's feet felt so soothed afterward. Highly recommend, great value, so easy to put on, and the adhesive sticks really well. Very durable, doesn't break off while using them, which is a plus!" —Dianapze

Get a set of three pairs from Amazon for $11.97. 

Promising review: "Love it!! What a great massager. I use it every day!!! It feels so good while using it and even afterward. My feet continue to feel the effects. Totally recommend this." —Irene B. 

You can grab a pumice stone or foot file on Amazon! 

Promising review: "Best product I've ever got from Amazon. This thing is really what everyone said it is: MAGIC. I cannot believe that after one use, the results of my callouses, just years and years of pain, were shaved down without any surgical treatment! WOW! I seriously have no words. If I could give this product 1 million stars, I would. If you’re someone who’s had horrible calloused feet for years, PLEASE BUY THIS!" —Jess

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in three scents, in a pack of two and a combo pack with a foot file).

Promising review: "This product delivers exactly as promised and is incredibly easy to use. I suffer from dry skin and often apply various products to soften my feet. With this, I simply spray it on and immediately massage it in with my hands. The dead skin comes off effortlessly. There's no waiting time, and it's gentle on the skin. It leaves my feet feeling exceptionally soft. This has quickly become my new favorite thing." —KimT

BuzzFeed Shopping writer, Emma Lord, recommends these *very* highly: "I have been buying a new set of these every year since 2020, and they have kept my VERY blister- and chafing-prone feet snug and moisture-wicked on every single long run. They've essentially phased out any of my other socks, because they're extremely comfortable to boot. As a runner who often clocks in 25+ miles a week and often in some "yikes!" summer heat, I cannot recommend these socks enough." 

Promising review: "These socks are designed perfectly for running socks. The bottoms and toes are thick, the tops are thin, the lower heel is reinforced, the heel top has a tab that provides extra cushion on the Achilles, where some shoes like to wear into you. The size is true to fit.  I've purchased many packs of these, and they are the best I've tried." —SmokeyBear

Get a pack of six from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in nine color combos and sizes S–XL).

Psst — you can also use these for cold therapy! Just pop them in a sealed freezer bag for two or three hours.

Promising review: "These silly-looking slippers really work! Granted, you can't walk around in them very well, but if you're looking for a sure-fire way to warm your toes while you're sitting around, these do the job. They heat up in the microwave for one minute and keep your feet warm for about an hour or two. Love them." —Beanrua

Get it from Amazon for $29.98+ (available in three colors; comfortably fits most women's sizes 6–10).

Fellow BuzzFeed writer Amanda Davis swears by this spray. Check out her Foot Matters Shoe Stretch spray review (#46) for more information!

Promising review: "I purchased my second pair of Dr. Martens three days before I was headed to New Orleans. Seemed like a mistake, right? Maybe it would have been if I didn't have this spray. I used it once and then walked around the house for a bit with some thick socks on. Then I sprayed the boots again, put beer cans inside them, and let them sit overnight. I wore my NEW boots all over three different airports (thanks to layovers) and all over New Orleans. These were the only boots I packed, too. It could have ended up a nightmare, but it didn't! My boots still have a little way to go to be fully broken in, but they're definitely ahead of schedule when I compare them to my first pair. I will use this spray on every pair of boots from now to forever." —lauren

Promising review: "I have very narrow heels so finding shoes that do not slip is incredibly difficult. However, since I have purchased the Pedag Stop Padded Leather Heel Grips, I have been able to wear all of my shoes. The heel grips are thick enough to keep my shoes from slipping in the back but not too thick to where it makes my shoes feel smaller. Also, the heel grips are made out of a super soft leather. Even through having sweaty shoes, the heel grips have stayed stuck to the back part of the shoe. Each set of heel grips is wrapped individually so it is easy to store the extras that I am saving for shoes in the future." —Derek

Get five pairs from Amazon for $9.99 (also available in a pair of one, three and 10).

Promising review: "I love to come home after a long day on my feet and just put my feet into this foot bath. Love the vibration. It feels so good. Highly recommended." —ziggy

You could even take it to the beach with you so you can wash off all that sand on your feet before you get into the car!

Promising review: "This is almost too cute to be a foot bath. I gave it to my mom as a gift, and she loves it! It's a good size and sturdy, and easily folds back up into a cute bag. I love the sunflower pattern, and the inside is a nice gray material. This is easy to use. It's a great stocking stuffer or start to creating a spa gift." —Olive's Opinions

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in two colors).

Promising review: "Bought this for my boyfriend, who is on his feet all day and was always complaining about how sweaty his feet got. He usually had to bring at least one extra pair of socks to change into during the day. He also had to buy shoes more often because of how they smell. It would be impossible for us to get out the smell. Since he began using this product, he can't believe how dry his feet stay ALL day. His socks don't even smell after a full day of work. He's now obsessed, and it's become a part of his daily routine." —Amazonaholic

Get it from Amazon for $19.95 (also available with an applicator). 

Read more about how a lack of arch support can aggravate plantar fasciitis at the American Podiatric Medical Association. 

Promising review: "These are comfortable and provide good arch support. They a flannel-like lining on the inside that is very comfy. I have very flat feet and suffer from tendonitis, and I’m on my feet all day. I wore these for a couple of days (I walked 5 miles each day), and I felt like this helped to support my arches, which helped relieve my ankle pain and back pain. I can see myself using this while at home since we don’t wear shoes in the house here, just so I can get some arch supports. Great product. Thank you!" —Taratomo

Get them from Amazon for $11.20 (available in three colors).

Promising review: "I had no idea I would need the in-shower lotion and foot spray this much! Both are amazing, and their usefulness is immediately noticed during the first use!" —Johnny/Victoria Carn

Promising review: "I have used the Pilates toe corrector in studio sessions. I looked on Amazon to purchase one to use at home. This product is an economical substitute (no rhinestones!) and it does the job. My aging feet appreciate it!" —Amazon Queen

NatraCure is a small biz that creates products to help with body aches.

Promising review: "This is a great ice pack kit. It holds the ice pack firmly in place against the needed area, and you can put it on as loosely or as tightly as you like. It is only good for the ankle, wrist, or foot as the wrap is just the right size for these applications. I used it for a sprained ankle/ foot, and it was very helpful. The ice pack is removable and doesn't take up much room in the freezer either. After being frozen, the ice pack keeps cool for about 20 minutes, which is a perfect ice application time. I plan to buy a second one!" —KnockKnock

Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (also available in a two-pack).
