Get Your Feet and Legs Ready for Spring and Summer
Get Your Feet and Legs Ready for Spring and Summer
Winter is officially just around the corner but it's never too late to start getting your feet ready for showing off in the warmer months. Feet can get dry and look extremely unattractive and it can happen quickly.
First of all, stay hydrated. It's important to drink enough water every day for your skin to stay moisturized. If you are dehydrated, long before you feel thirsty, your body will have robbed valuable moisture from your outer layer of skin. This leaves you with a probability of early wrinkles, pimples and also - dry feet.
You can have beautiful feet for only about 30 minutes of your time per week. First of all, soak your feet in warm water. Add some Epsom salts if you like then scrub your feet with a pumice stone. If you have let your feet go it may take a few soaking to get them back to tip-top shape. Don't scrub so hard you break the skin. Just get off all the dead skin you can.
Then pat your feet dry and apply moisturizer, do not put on any kind of socks unless they are 100% cotton. Acrylics and especially panty hose will do nothing to help your feet retain moisture.
Clip and file your nails if needed and although you only need to soak and scrub your feet about once a week, do moisturize your feet every night before bed and by the time warm weather rolls around, you'll have a devastatingly good looking pair of feet to show off in a pair of
sandals!
