4 tips to (finally) have pretty feet

A velvet skin

The key to a soft foot is creaming. Yes, it is one of the driest areas of the body, because it has no sebaceous glands. Therefore, mandatory hydration (on clean skin) on the top and bottom of the foot, not forgetting the contour of the nails and between the toes.

The right timing. Every day, yes ma'am!

Our favorite. Xerial 30, SVR, €10.90.

Zero calluses

Two options to remove them:if you don't have enough of them, a scrub is enough, otherwise, we bring out the heavy artillery:scrub + grater. Exfoliate on wet skin, emphasizing roughness. If you use the grater, soak the feet for 10 minutes in lukewarm water before rubbing it gently over the calluses (otherwise they will come back strong).

The right timing. Once a week.

Our favorites. Express Pedi, Scholl, €39.99 and 2-in-1 Scrub, Hansaplast, €5.20.

Nickel nails

Three accessories are enough:a nail clipper (follow the natural shape and do not cut too close, so as not to hurt yourself) + a file (to round the edges) + a hardening varnish (embellishes and strengthens soft nails ).

The right timing. We adjust the length once a week, and we take the opportunity to remove the hardener and put it back.

Our favorites. Lime, O.P.I, €4.50, Nail Nippers, Mavala, €38.15 and Durci’Express, L’Onglerie, €9.80.

A breath of fresh air

When it is too hot, the feet tend to swell and redden. Menthol care activates blood circulation, suddenly we recover feet with a normal color and size. That's bieeeeen!

The right timing. As soon as you need it.
