Why this worksExfoliation removes dead skin cells, leaving your feet smoother and more rejuvenated. This is especially important in spring when we're ready to show off our feet. Regular exfoliation can also help prevent calluses and dry patches, making your feet feel soft and healthy.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Soak Your Feet Start by soaking your feet in warm water for about 10-15 minutes. This helps to soften the skin, making it easier to exfoliate. You can add Epsom salts for added relaxation.
  2. Choose Your Exfoliant Select a foot scrub or a pumice stone for exfoliation. If you prefer a DIY option, mix sugar or salt with olive oil to create your own scrub. Both options help to slough off dead skin effectively.
  3. Exfoliate Gently Using your chosen exfoliant, gently massage your feet in circular motions, focusing on areas that tend to get dry or callused. Be gentle to avoid irritation, especially if you have sensitive skin.
  4. Rinse and Moisturise After exfoliating, rinse your feet thoroughly to remove any residue. Pat them dry and apply a rich foot cream to lock in moisture and keep your feet hydrated.

Where people go wrong

Many people forget to soak their feet before exfoliating, which can lead to irritation. Others may apply too much pressure while scrubbing, causing discomfort. Always remember to rinse well after exfoliation and follow up with moisturiser for best results.

The pro moveTry exfoliating at night and wearing moisture-locking socks to enhance hydration while you sleep.
