Happy Feet, Happy You! Pretty feet are something that every girl wants. You know what? Now its very easy to get! You don’t have to step out of your house for that. All you need to do is follow a few simple steps to make your feet look pretty. So today lets devote some time to feet care. The first thing you need to do is use natural ingredients when you soak your feet. Soak your feet in warm water whenever you do. Now you must be thinking whats new in that? Soaking your feet in warm water, is not enough. If you want pretty feet, you need to do a little more than that. A few drops of lime juice may be? Yes, that will definitely give your feet the pampering they always needed. It is best if you could add a few drops of shower gel with a natural base to this mixture. 10 -15 minutes in this mixture will transform your feet forever. If the difference in the color of your feet and other parts of your body is bothering you, let me tell you that is a problem with a simple solution. A mixture of milk, lime juice and salt can solve your problem. Make a fine paste of this mixture and massage your feet for 15-20 minutes before washing it off with warm water. Let a few weeks pass this way and you will see the difference in the skin tone. It always happens that our feet get the least attention when it comes to cleanliness of our body. What most of us don’t know is the fact that, mere washing with water and soap will not entirely remove the dirt that our feet collect everyday. For thorough cleaning you need to scrub your feet occasionally. When you scrub, don’t leave out any part of your feet. Not even the soles or the area between your toes. These are the areas that get neglected, though these are the places where there is a lot of dirt accumulation happening. One more thing you might have been neglecting is the dirt in your toe nails. This also needs to be taken care of. You may not have realized but your feet need moisturization too! So apply a good body lotion to your feet before you go to bed and wash your feet thoroughly next morning. Since this is the era of specialization you might like to use a cream specially meant for feet. So pamper your feet with some of that every night. If you prefer to go the natural way, prepare a mixture of rose water and glycerin. Glycerin will give you amazing texture while rose water will take care of any skin irritation your feet may have. An option even better than this for smooth and soft feet is the use of honey. Soak your feet in warm water containing a scoop of honey. That’s the only effort needed from your end for soft and skin. For those who don’t want to use honey, olive oil is an option. Massage your feet with olive oil and then put on a pair of comfortable socks for an hour. Later wash your feet and see the difference for yourself. There’s one more thing you will need when you use this procedure for soft and smooth feet. Its patience! You will have to do it twice a month to see the results you want. Trust me... Its worth the wait. Kruti Beesam
