Cracked

Hello everyone:

I am translating a document that contains the words....
------cracked skin---------

to indicate that the skin is so dry it is "cracking" as in the skin of your heels during the summer months if you don't have a pedicure or if you don't apply a moisturizing lotion.

Can't find an appropriate translation for this beyond....piel reseca y partida, etc.

Can someone please help me?

Estas bien.

...para indicar que la piel está tan seca y se está partiendo como la piel de tus talones...

Que si solo usan la palabra "agrietada" y no "partida", en Chile usamos las dos.

I found the word in the dictionary and it means Piel arida.

That I believe it's at most the same that piel seca.
