Taking Care of your Feet Naturally


Some skin care tips for your feet are mentioned below:

Soak your feet in Luke warm water for about 15-20 minutes. Add vitamin E or Epsom salt in the water to help soothe your feet. After 20 minutes rub off dryness from your feet by using a scrubber. Go for a paraffin wax feet treatment, it will help to increase your blood flow and open your skin pores. Apply a moisturizing cream on your feet to soften your cuticles. Then by using a cuticle stick, you can shape and trim your nails. Remove any dead skin layers, if your feet are itchy, use a good foot scrubber and apply it on your feet skin.



Make sure your feet are completely dry, before you wear your socks. Moisture left in your feet can cause fungus. Apply moisturizing cream to your feet like you apply on your hands and face. If your feet sweat in summers, you can use any good anti-perspirant for that. Taking care of your feet is very important in any season of the year.

The most important element to look beautiful is having flawless and clear skin. Having a beautiful and clear skin is either inherited or a result of continuous skin care efforts but we can improve our skin by spending little time and effort on skin care. Here are some things that you should keep in mind while choosing foundation:


Color of the foundation – The color of your foundation depends on your natural skin tone and complexion. You should match the foundation color with your skin color. Prefer to go for cool and warm colors instead of pink and yellows.

       Foundation Formulation - Dry skin needs moisture, if you want to add color to your complexion then use easy to wear skin care products with natural makeup foundation.
