How Beautiful are your Feet?
Have you ever touched the foot of a newborn and felt like doing so continually because of its softness and sleekness? That is the beautiful feet effect.
I used to think hardened feet are a sign of hard work and aging but then who says these diligent fellas can't be catered for after all, they are a hardworking pair of the human body.
Frequent pampering of your feet would do you a lot of good especially if they are often exposed to friction, dust and dirt. Constant friction can make corns and calluses build up on your feet like layers of cheesy crusts of hardened flesh. Have you ever imagined the feeling of walking as if the clouds were under your feet. That's the beauty of a leg care routine.
Visit a Spa, beauty shop, salon or try out this easy DIY method at home for a great leg care routine.
Recipes for a Feet Care Routine
1. Soak your feet in warm water with 2 to 3 tablespoons of lemon juice for a few minutes. Then add baking soda to the solution. The baking soda's fine grains and the fizzy reaction with the lemon juice can help dissolve calluses.
