Tips to show off well-cared feet in summer

 

With the arrival of summer it is time to show off your feet and make them look great, whether you are going down the street, to the beach or to the doctor.

 

Of course, not all people have the same facility to enjoy well-cared and good-looking feet, since there are more sensitive or hard feet and it is important to get down to work.

 

This is how you can prepare your feet for the arrival of summer:

 

Exfoliate your feet

 

Exfoliation is an important part of foot care and should be done regularly to remove dead skin cells and soften the skin. 

 

For this, you can use a foot scrub. If you don't have any on hand, you can even make a homemade one by mixing salt or sugar with coconut or olive oil. 

 

When you have the scrub on, simply rub the mixture onto your feet in gentle circular motions, emphasizing dry, rough areas like heels and toes. 

 

Moisturizes the feet 

 

After exfoliating your feet, apply a specific moisturizing cream for feet. Choose a cream rich in natural ingredients such as shea butter or vitamin E. 

 

To apply it, massage the cream into your feet, also going through the heels and toes. You can even apply enough cream and put a sock on top so that it stays on for at least half an hour. You can also leave it acting in bed when you go to sleep.

 

cut the nails

 

Nail clipping is an important part of the entire foot care process. To do this, you can use a nail clippers to make sure you cut the nail straight, so that it does not incarnate on the skin. 

 

Be careful, do not cut them too much in order to avoid injuries and pain. 

 

take care of cuticles

 

Cuticles are the skin that surrounds the base of the nails. You should pay attention not only to the nail, but also to the cuticles.

 

Don't cut them, just gently push back the cuticles with a stick to prevent them from overgrowing and turning into dead skin. If you have dry or cracked cuticles, you can apply a cuticle cream or oil. 

 

Always wear good shoes

 

The use of appropriate footwear is important for foot care. For it, wear shoes that are not too tight to avoid chafing and blisters. Good footwear will always help you prevent injuries and foot pain. 

 

Paint the nails

 

Finally, the icing on the cake is paint your nails a pretty color so that your feet look great at 100%. You can paint them to match your fingernails for a total look.
