Why this worksAs the weather warms up, our feet can take a beating from being cooped up in shoes. A good foot care routine helps to remove dead skin, hydrate, and keep nails looking neat, ensuring your feet are ready for all the spring activities. Regular maintenance prevents roughness and promotes overall foot health.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Soak Your Feet Start by soaking your feet in warm, soapy water for about 10-15 minutes. This helps to soften any hard skin and makes it easier to remove calluses. Add Epsom salts for extra relaxation.
  2. Exfoliate and Scrub Use a foot scrub or pumice stone to gently exfoliate the skin, focusing on heels and balls of the feet. Rinse and pat dry to reveal smoother skin. Be gentle to avoid irritation.
  3. Moisturise Thoroughly Apply a rich foot cream or lotion to keep your skin hydrated. Pay special attention to dry areas and massage the cream into your feet for better absorption. This will help keep cracks at bay.
  4. Nail Care Trim and shape your nails, then push back cuticles gently. Finish with a clear nail polish or a nourishing cuticle oil to keep nails looking polished and healthy.

Where people go wrong

Many people skip soaking, thinking a quick scrub is enough. Don't forget to moisturise thoroughly, as dry skin can lead to cracks. Also, be cautious not to over-exfoliate, which can cause irritation.

The pro moveTry using a foot mask once a week for an extra boost of hydration.
