Dry heels
Whether you walk a lot or not, everyone can get dry heels. Dermatologists recommend keeping your heels moisturized with lotions. There are special crèmes for exactly this purpose but many people use VapoRub to get the job done. But the same thing applies here: there’s no real proof.

Then DEET is a better option.
