Strategist beauty columnist Rio Viera-Newton prefers Patchology’s foot mask over Baby Foot, which she found too intense. This left her skin “absurdly, silkily smooth, with no cracks or dry patches at all,” after about eight days of shedding.

We’ve been extolling the virtues of spritzing magnesium oil on our feet before bed to get a good night’s sleep, so this magnesium-infused body butter has piqued my interest. It smells of lavender, chamomile, and patchouli, which sounds divine.
