6 Care Tips For Beautiful Feet

Just like we exfoliate and massage other parts of the body, we should do the same with our feet

Having beautiful feet  is easier than you think. All you have to do is take good care of them and follow a few simple rules and your feet will always look perfect.

In the following article we will tell you all the tips and tricks for having beautiful feet .

1. Always keep dry

To keep your feet nice and dry, you should follow these simple steps:

• If possible, use shoes made from natural materials so that the skin can breathe.
• Do not wear the same pair of shoes for several days in a row.
• Always dry your feet after showering to prevent athlete’s foot.

2. Cut nails correctly

It’s important that you trim your nails properly so they don’t grow in. To prevent that from happening, all you have to do is follow these advice:

• Always cut the nails straight, not round.
• Do not cut too short, otherwise the nails may grow in or infections may occur.
• Do not remove the cuticles. If necessary, you can gently slide them back toward the nail bed.

3. Take care of your health

Even if we often try very hard, problems like an ingrown nail can sometimes not be avoided. You can take care of your health with these useful tips:

• First, you should soak your feet in lukewarm water for 15 to 20 minutes. Add a spoonful of salt per liter of water, which has a disinfectant effect.
• You can gently lift the nail with floss: this way you can clean the affected area with an antiseptic and apply an ointment to help it heal faster.

• Repeat this process until the nail is back to normal. If the inflammation is severe, you should definitely see a doctor!

4. Foot baths with baking soda

There is nothing better for beautiful feet than foot baths with baking soda. So not only radiate your feet, but also the heels are very soft.

• For the footbath to be really effective, you should do it for 15 to 20 minutes once a week.
• You can use ingredients like table salt, essential oils, and herbal teas to do this.
• It is best to use a pumice stone or scrub after the bath to remove the rough skin.

5. Moisturizers

Moisturizers are just as important for your feet as they are for your  hands and face, so be sure to use them regularly.

• To do this, you should use softening products that contain dimethicone, lanolin or petroleum jelly, for example. Moisturizing ingredients like glycerin and lecithin are also important.
• Be careful not to apply the cream to the area between your toes, as this can cause athlete’s foot.

6. Treat yourself to a foot massage

Foot massages are highly recommended for various reasons: They stimulate blood circulation, ensure healthy feet and work against exhaustion and tiredness.

• Just 5 minutes a day is enough. You can also use a massager made specifically for the feet.

• Another option is to roll a tennis ball or other round object around with your foot to stimulate blood circulation.

7. Peeling for beautiful feet

From time to time, pamper your feet with a peeling:

• Mix some body oil (or almond or olive oil) with a small amount of sugar.
• Massage onto the heels or any other area that you want to exfoliate.
• So the heels are supplied with moisture. The friction created by the sugar removes dead cells. This method is simple and inexpensive.
