Although it is true that we should take care of our feet throughout the year, we don't always do it. And it is that, when the good weather arrives and, with it, the moment to release sandals, we enter into a crisis. We look at our feet and that's when we see the disaster. Luckily, there is nothing, in this sense, that cannot be solved, so let's get to work!
Throughout the year we meet our physical goals. We go to the gym, we exercise daily and we eat wonderfully. We feel good inside and out and everything is wonderful. Everything except our feet when the good weather arrives and we have to show them. Next, we will tell you a series of guidelines that, if you keep in mind, will ensure that your feet are at the height of any magazine advertisement.
Guidelines to have footers
Hydration
With the cold of the winter months, not only the skin of our body and face dries out. Specifically, the feet may have acquired greater dryness. So, a point of vital importance for your care is the hydration. Apply a cream with moisturizing and highly nourishing properties, preferably with a high percentage of natural ingredients twice a day. Massage the area well so that its principles penetrate effectively.
outside cracks
With daily hydration, we will not only achieve greater softness, but also we will avoid unsightly cracked and dry heels. You must be constant and apply with special intention in those most conflictive areas.
Exfoliation
Twice a week, before applying the moisturizer, Exfoliate the feet well paying attention to the heels. But do not overlook each of the fingers. After exfoliating and massaging while spreading the cream, you will notice a significant change in your feet. You can use a product that you like, or make your own own homemade scrub. To do this, mix vegetable oil, of sweet almonds for example, with white or brown sugar.
Watch out for footwear!
It is important that, throughout the year, you choose footwear that gives you comfort and lightness. Both for sport and for routine in general. This will prevent them from suffering and being affected by a bad posture inside the shoe or slipper. If your sport causes blisters or wounds, take care of them daily so that they heal and disappear.
