One of the biggest mistakes we make when it comes to feet is remember them only in the spring-summer season, when we feel like uncovering them and most want to show them off with sandals. And of course, if we have not worked on the feet during the winter, it is most likely that now they need a good setup to be perfectly hydrated, soft and prettier again.
Tips and care to have healthy and beautiful feet
From Pedicare, firm specializing in foot care, indicate some care guidelines of them, both maintenance and preventive.
Have proper foot hygiene, is one of the fundamental steps to maintain healthy feet, and many times we do not give it all the importance it deserves; and as they tell us from Pedicare, it must be carried out every day. “The usual rush joins the false feeling that we usually have that when we are taking a shower, the water and also the soap fall on our feet, this is not enough, we have to wash them thoroughly every day. And for this function, there is nothing better than resorting to specific products that provide a plus, “ppreferably with soap or specific gel and do not forget that they need as much care as the one you give to your hands.”

Another option that we recommend for being very beneficial and that without a doubt we love, is the one of make a relaxing bath for the feet, they do remind us not to have our feet in the water for more than half an hour. “You will enjoy a fantastic sensation of calm almost instantly and both your feet and legs will thank you, as it will help reduce accumulated tension, also perfect for promoting proper circulation.” Moment that we can also take advantage of to perform a gentle exfoliation with a specific product, thus we will eliminate all the impurities and dead cells.

One of the gestures that we cannot forget and that we emphasize as very important, is that of “dry your feet very well after a shower or anti-stress foot bath. This is one of the most important tips we are going to give you. Dry your feet very well, and especially dries the spaces between the toes very well. This way you ensure the appearance of fungi and avoid its annoying symptoms and consequences.” In this case we can use small cotton towels and even apply air with the dryer for perfect drying.

And now we come to one of the most controversial parts, and that is the one with the hardness. The rubbing of some shoes or the lack of hydration cause the hardness or calluses to appear, and if it is not remedied in time, they will thicken. From Pedicare they advise us, “Removes calluses frequently using a suitable sandpaper for feet. Prevent unsightly corns and calluses by sanding them when the skin is soft It is recommended, it is easier to do after a shower or after having your feet in warm water for about 15 or 20 minutes. If you are not good at doing it at home, go regularly to your trusted pedicurist.”

Another key point is the hydration of the feet. As we have told you on many occasions, allying ourselves with hydration is essential, and yes, it must be throughout the year. Only then will we keep them hydrated, repaired and healthy. “It is absolutely essential moisturize the feet as often as possible and with a specific product. This way we get more elasticity and resistance, the skin is more comfortable and healthy. Keeping your feet hydrated means providing them with an extraordinary barrier against skin infections, calluses, peeling, etc…” they explain to us

A good recommendation that they make us is moisturize your feet before going to sleepThis is how it will be during the night when the skin absorbs the active ingredients, which, as we well know, is when the skin is more permeable. “But if our feet are excessively dry and we need to hydrate them during the day, we will always choose fast-absorbing formulas that leave us with the perfect foot to be able to put on our shoes.”

And if we have talked about how relaxing a perfect foot bath is, what about a massage? Foot massages are as comforting as they are beneficialfrom Pedicare so they tell us. “It offers numerous benefits, improves stress and circulation, promotes relaxation and sleep, helps relieve heaviness in the legs, etc. If we also use an ideal product to perform it (oil or cream) this massage is very pleasant for our feet.”

The next step, and no less important, is the pedicure, and not only as an aesthetic function, but also for health. “Therefore, if you want to show off beautiful feet, always file your nails carefully, straight, and follow the advice of your podiatrist or pedicurist. To avoid irregular spikes that can lead to painful ingrown toenails, which can be very problematic.” the signature says.
