5 Steps To Sexy Summer Feet

When summer comes and the heat builds up, will you ditch your boots for airy sandals?
Will you go barefoot on the beach or by the pool side, especially when you intend to swim?
Are you feet up to it? Looks-wise, that is.

Beautiful feet aren't defined by your shoe size, but by the condition of your skin and nails. A stunning pedicure is just the icing on the cake.

Scaly feet with callouses, fungal infections or rough heels or feet so dry the skin peels off, aren't attractive. Healthy feet with baby soft skin and neat, healthy toe nails, polished or not, are beautiful

Here's how you care for your feet so that they will be healthy, look beautiful and feel wonderful.

1. Eat fish and nuts
You are what you eat. That adage is so true. The nutrients you take in your food will decide how your hair, skin and nails will turn out and nuts and seeds contain omega oils which are necessary for radiant skin, healthy hair and nails.

2. Exfoliate your feet.
Rub a dub dub two feet in a tub.
Scrub your feet with a foot scrub, a body scrub or use and exfoliating wash to get rid of dry, peeling skin and allow younger, healthier skin to surface. Exfoliate your feet daily. Pay attention to the rough patches and to your heels.

3. Moisturize your feet.
You moisturize your face, your hands and legs. Why not your feet?
In fact, feet respond even better to a massage with a good moisturizing clean. Do moisturize your feet immediately after washing them thoroughly and drying them with a towel.

4. Groom your feet.
Cut your toenails straight across to avoid ingrown toenails. When summer comes, pretty up your feet by painting the nails with your favourite nail polish.

5. Prevent fungal infections.
Once a week, soak your feet in a foot bath that has a few drops of tea tree oil added to clean warm water. For added luxury, you could add a little tea tree shampoo to the water for lather and use that to clean your feet too.
