Tips to Have Beautiful Feet

Tips to Have Beautiful FeetEvery woman would like to have wonderful feet. As the warmer season arrives we change our heavy winter coats into lighter fabrics such as skirts and shorts. As our feet is the most visible in the spring and summer season, it is very important to treat them with proper care. Read on to get some useful tips to have beautiful feet for this summer!
Beautiful feet can be reality if you devote some time and effort to provide your feet with the necessary moisture and appropriate care they need. Pamper yourself with an amazing foot makeover and learn how to get stunning feet that will look attractive in flip-flops and sandals all summer long!





Remove Toenail Polish
First start your feet treatment by removing the toenail polish until there are no residues left. This way you can check whether your nails are healthy or see if there are any problems. If it’s possible use an acetone-free polish remover, as it is less harsh to your toenails.

Pamper Your Feet with a Fresh Soak
As a next step wash your feet properly and soak them in warm soapy water for about ten minutes. If you want to make it even more relaxing, you can add aromatherapy salts or oils as well. When you are done with soaking, careful rub your toenails with a toenail brush in order to get rid of the dead skin cells and surface impurities. In order to keep your toenails healthy, give them a break from polishing them all the time. For this reason, every couple of weeks leave them unpolished or just paint them clear.

Remove the Calluses
When you have finished with soaking your feet, gently remove the nasty calluses and the hard skin on the heel area by using a pumice stone. This is a very important step of foot care, in order to prevent your skin from sore cracking and keep your skin soft and smooth.

Cut Your Toenails Short
Long nails can look terrible and will make you look untidy. Purchase a good pedicure kit, which will help you to maintain the beauty of your feet. A proper pedicure is very important therefore save yourself some time at lease once in every two weeks and cut your nails straight. Trim them a nice even shape, making sure that you have left no sharp edges that may cause inflammations.





Moisturize
In order to obtain a wonderful result and get fabulous feet, massage your skin with a moisturizing cream all over and use it every day. Lotions are extremely important as to maintain the proper hydration of your skin and make your skin feel soft and look beautiful. If you apply a moisturizer after you shower, bath or after soaking your feet, it will help the cream to absorb better in your skin.
Give your feet a relaxing massage and enjoy pampering yourself with this pleasant treatment. In order to let the moisturizer soak in better, you can put on special moisturizing socks as well and wear them at night, while you are sleeping.

Pull Back Cuticles
Avoid trimming your cuticles, instead just gently push them back once a week with a special cuticle stick.

Apply a Flattering Nail Polish
As a last step, use toenail separators in order to prevent smearing your paint and apply a base coat. Then, choose your favorite nail polish color, a shade that is fresh and funky and suits your personality and your clothes as well. In the summer opt for bright and sunny colors that will add spice to your look and will instantly make you look sexy and chic.

Choose Comfortable Shoes
Pay attention to buy shoes that fit well on your feet to avoid ending up with blisters or bunions. Beautiful but ill-fitting shoes can do more harm than good to your feet. Determine your proper shoe size and buy shoes that are not too tight on your toes.

Relax Your Feet
After a busy shopping day or after you have made long walks, make yourself a little time to put your tired feet up for a few minutes and let them relax.

Sponsored tweets

n Wednesday, the developer community will be heading to San Francisco for Chirp, Twitter's new developer conference. But software writers are beginning to wonder whether they still have a role to play in the website's future.

The blogging site, founded in 2006, will carry “promoted tweets” from advertisers including Best Buy Inc. and Starbucks Inc., according to a blog post from the company today. At the outset, the ads will appear at the top of search pages.

Social-media sites including Twitter have been reluctant to inundate pages with ads, highlighting the challenges of wringing sales from millions of people who spend time interacting with others online.

Floral Clothes - Hot or Not

It seems that the new spring 2010 trends are already here. If you are wondering what the hell I am talking about, I'll tell you straight away. I mean the new floral trend!

These "nice" bloom prints are all over the stores. But you don't have to dress to the nines to add a little bit flower power to your wardrobe.

To be honest I am not into that kind of blooming clothes. My style is more like simple, I like simple not colorful clothes..

One of the things that pissed me off is when I see some beautiful girl/woman - overdressed!

I star reading thesun, a while ago and every time I go to their Fashion section, there is some kind of blooming outfits.

It seems that the only problem I have with the new trend is - Those are clothes that my grandma will wear!

Good Luck everyone! :)
