It looks like this weekend and next week will be particularly hot, so sneakers are on the far shelf and it’s time for open sandals. For those who prefer a homemade pedicure to a hairdresser, we have prepared a few tips on how to take care of the skin of your feet yourself.
foot bath
The skin on the feet is usually thicker than the rest of the body (after all, it must withstand the constant wearing of hard shoes). Therefore, you should first soak your feet in a warm bath to soften the hardened areas. Oil, bath salt, or milk can be added to the water to further moisturize the skin.
exfoliation
If there are additional areas of rough skin or cracks on the legs, use special products marked “for heels”. They usually contain salicylic, citric acid or urea. The latter softens the skin and provides long-term moisturizing and nourishment of the skin. The acids gently exfoliate.
pumice
After the skin has softened, treat with a damp pumice stone or file. Use only on rough areas and avoid applying too much pressure.
moisturizer
Finally, apply cream to your feet to further moisturize the skin. Repeat this process every week to keep your feet smooth.
