In the warm season, when we wear open shoes and walk outside for longer, our feet have a special load. And sometimes one cannot do with a pedicure in the salon. We will tell you how to maintain the beauty of your legs at home.
Gymnastics
Many girls regularly go in for sports, but at the same time they ignore gymnastics for the feet. And in vain. If you devote at least five minutes a day to it, then you will forget or never know for sure about problems such as pain in the foot or ankle, swelling and even varicose veins. In addition, the exercises are very easy to perform, they can be done while sitting at the desk or standing by the stove while preparing dinner. You can find many options on the Internet, but we offer the simplest: circles with feet clockwise and counterclockwise, squeezing and unclenching your toes. You can also slowly get up and down on your toes, on your heels, and then on the inner sides of your feet.
Baths
In order for the feet to always look well-groomed, once a week for 15-30 minutes, it is worth doing baths using sea salt, essential oils or herbal tinctures. And if sea salt is universal and definitely suitable for everyone, then it is better to select oils and tinctures according to needs. So, conifers, eucalyptus and mint have tonic properties, sage has an antimicrobial effect, chamomile and lavender relieve fatigue and heal small wounds and scratches. Another recipe for a bath is using milk to moisturize and nourish the skin.
Scrub and massage
Every time you take a shower, make it a rule to rub your feet properly with a special brush or a hard washcloth. For the best effect, you can use a scrub. Such a beauty routine will help prevent thickening and roughness of the skin, keeping the pedicure in perfect condition for a long time.
After water treatment, dry your feet well with a towel and give a light massage. It not only relieves fatigue of the legs, but also has a beneficial effect on the entire body as a whole and even saves from insomnia. The massage technique can be memorized by your master or mastered on your own. But the rules are better to start with the toes and end with movements on the heels.
Care
And, of course, the most important thing is to use a good remedy for your feet. For example, pay attention to the novelty from the Swedish brand DryDry – the multifunctional foot cream Foot Cream. Thanks to the active ingredients in the composition, which include glycolic, malic, citric and salicylic acids, it solves several tasks at once: it helps to remove dead skin cells and renew the upper layer of the epidermis, has a long-term antimicrobial effect for several hours, and also prevents the appearance of corns and cracks … It is advisable to apply Foot Cream once a day, and after achieving the desired effect – only twice a week.
