Having cracked or bleeding feet is never desirable to anyone. Setting aside about half an hour from your daily schedule for a regular foot treatment will keep them healthy and beautiful throughout the year. Read on to know about the foot care tips that will give you beautiful feet.
Apply a foot scrub every day, preferably after a tiring day at work. You can simply buy one that contains essential oils. Massage the ingredients into your feet, and leave on for 5-10 minutes. Wash off with warm water. This method is helpful when it comes to saving time as well as getting the desired effect.
Use a moisturizer everyday on your feet, after bathing and before going to sleep, carefully massaging into the dry areas, nails and the cuticles. This will keep the feet feeling soft.
If you suffer from feet that ache from pressure, there are natural remedies for this problem. You need 4-5 drops of essential oil of tea tree, 3-4 drops of essential oil of cypress and 1-2 teaspoons of jojoba oil. Mix all the ingredients together, pour into a large bowl or bucket of warm water, place your feet in the water and leave on for 5-10 minutes. After this, step into a bucket of cold water into which a cup of green tea has been mixed.
A foot massage before going to bed would help relieve your feet of stress. For this, simply warm colorless sesame oil or olive oil and massage into your soles and toes. Put on cotton socks and go to sleep.
Another way of caring for your feet and keeping them beautiful is by walking barefoot on pebbles. This would stimulate acupressure points on the soles of the feet, dispensing health benefits throughout the body.
Sometimes girls’ feet suffer from painful corns. Soak your feet in warm water and add a pinch of salt. Gently rub the corn affected area with a coarse emery board. Cut a fresh pineapple and put the piece over the area for 5 to 10 minutes. The enzymes present in pineapple will help the skin in dissolving the corn.
A nice foot tonic can help you in getting beautiful feet. You can make an effective tonic with a cup of milk combined by one teaspoonful of mint leaves, peppermint extract and rosemary. Apply this mixture and leave for 10 minutes.
