Beautiful, smooth heels are a dream for many of us, especially during the summer when we eagerly wear sandals and flip-flops. However, taking care of our feet is something we should remember all year round. After all, our feet work hard for us every day, so they deserve proper care. In our opinion at Easy Nails, regular heel care not only improves their appearance but also prevents health problems such as cracked heels or calluses. So how can you ensure smooth heels all year round?
Daily care is essential
The first step to smooth heels is regular care. Daily washing of the feet, thorough drying, and moisturizing are the minimum we should provide ourselves. The skin on the heels is thicker than on the rest of the body, so it requires intense hydration. It’s worth choosing creams based on urea, which effectively soften and moisturize the skin. In our opinion at Easy Nails, regularity is the key to success.
Peeling – the key to success
Once a week, it’s worth treating yourself to a foot scrub. We can use ready-made products available in stores or prepare our own scrub from natural ingredients. For DIY fans, we recommend a sugar and olive oil scrub that gently removes dead skin and moisturizes the skin. Do you have your favorite homemade scrub recipes? We’d love to hear your opinions!
Soaking feet – relaxation and care in one
Soaking feet is not only a pleasant ritual but also an effective way to soften the skin on the heels. We can add sea salt to warm water, which has anti-inflammatory properties, or essential oils, which additionally moisturize the skin. After such a treatment, it’s easier to remove dead skin with a file or pumice stone. What are your favorite foot bath additives?
Professional treatments – when is it worth considering them?
Sometimes, despite home care, our heels still don’t look as we would like. Then it’s worth considering professional treatments at a beauty salon. A pedicure is not only a way to beautiful feet but also a moment of relaxation and rest. At Easy Nails, we particularly recommend a SPA pedicure, which combines care and relaxation.
Choosing the right footwear
We must not forget that the condition of our heels is also affected by the shoes we wear. Shoes made of synthetic materials that don’t allow air to pass through can cause excessive sweating of the feet and lead to skin problems. It’s worth investing in comfortable, breathable shoes that provide our feet with comfort all day long.
Proper diet
Our diet also affects the appearance of our feet. It’s important to remember the right amount of fluids, which moisturize our body from the inside. Additionally, a diet rich in vitamins A, C, E, and healthy fats supports skin regeneration and prevents it from drying out. Do you pay attention to what you eat? Maybe you have your proven ways for a healthy diet?
Regular visits to a specialist
Sometimes foot problems can be a symptom of more serious conditions, such as fungal infections or diabetes. Therefore, it’s worth consulting a podiatrist from time to time, who will assess the condition of our feet and advise on proper care. Regular visits to a specialist can protect us from more serious health problems.
