Summer is a great time to show off beautiful sandals, but are you confident with your feet? Foot care is not just about beauty; it’s also about caring for your health. A proper care routine will help you confidently step out all summer long.
Start by soaking your feet. Prepare a basin of warm water mixed with sea salt or your favorite essential oil. Soaking your feet for 10-15 minutes helps soften the skin, reduce tension, and relax your muscles.
After soaking, use a specialized tool to remove dead skin cells and calluses on your heels. This will make your skin smoother. Next, trim and file your nails. Cut your toenails straight across to prevent ingrown nails. Then, use a file to smooth the edges.
Don’t forget to care for your cuticles and moisturize. The cuticles on your toes need care just like your fingernails. Apply cuticle oil and gently massage it in. Afterward, apply a special foot moisturizer.
Finally, if you want to paint your toenails, choose bright, vibrant colors to match the summer vibe. However, let your nails “breathe” by going without polish sometimes. This keeps them healthy and prevents yellowing.
