For women, the attention to details is a must, and this becomes more evident with the extra care and pampering they give to their feet and toenails during summer, when they can show their beautiful feet while wearing sandals. Of course, this does not mean that their feet should be forgotten during winter, as this is probably the season when feet need more attention because of wearing socks all the time and closed shoes that can sometimes suffocate them.

So, it is important to take care of your feet regularly and no matter what time of the year it is, you have to remember that moisturizing your feet is essential to keep them nice and good looking.

The process can start by relaxing in your bathroom. Soaking your feet in warm water will soften the skin and leave it ready to start with the pampering. Imagine the unique sensation of scented oil or the caress of effervescent small balls on your skin. If you wish, you can also use a Pedispa. Then the scent of mint and other refreshing leaves will make you feel completely relaxed within ten minutes, which will feel wonderful and your feet will thank you for that. Any woman can use a pedispa, a device that was created for the wellbeing of your feet. This amazing device has a program for bubble massage, so your feet can relax and it also comes with three accessories for the stimulation of your arch. It provides a very deep massage and reaches the reflex zones. The pedispa can activate your toes for absolute relaxation.

The next important part of your pedicure is the exfoliation. By exfoliating your feet you will make them feel and look softer and smoother because you will be removing the calluses and hard skin. Exfoliation includes the use of a scrub and a rasp, so you can leave your feet completely smooth and free of any hard and dead skin. There are creams that can help, which are rich in vitamins and normally have extracts of several sea salts, plants and fruits. When applying this to your feet you will feel as dreaming, a dream in which you are in a forest surrounded by berries, all ripe and fresh.

Once you finish removing all the hard skin and exfoliating your feet, the next step is to apply a toning mask to revitalize your feet. Some pedicure kits will contain all the necessary instruments for all this process.

Most of the times, you will note that the skin on your feet is dry, so they need to be hydrated on a regular basis, ideally with a special cream that provides the nutrients they need. This cream or moisturizer must be applied before bedtime and after doing this, you must put on socks, so the skin can absorb the cream during the night. You will notice a huge difference in the morning, as your feet will look rejuvenated and soft. The use of moisturizer is necessary because the feet suffer with the many frictions and work they have to do. Therefore, the best moisturizers should contain lipids such as glycerol and other substances to achieve the best results.

Now it is the turn of the nails. They normally grow quite fast, so you need to cut and file them regularly. There are many styles that can be used when cutting your nails and you can choose one according to your preferences. Once you finish cutting your nails, you need to file them nicely. Remember to round the sides in order to avoid nail incarnation. It is recommended to use appropriate stainless steel nail clippers.

If your nails are too hard, then you will need to wash or soak your feet before cutting them. This will make the task much easier, as they will be softened. There are various types of files to use when filing your nails, so it is just a matter of choosing the most appropriate for you.

Once you have finished cutting your nails, the next step is to apply a cream to the cuticles, so they can be gently pushed back with a stick The nails and cuticles need a special cream, which can be very easy to find or it may come with your pedicure kit. Usually the cuticle creams contain essential oils rich in nutrients, such as raspberry, burdock or St. John's wort. These elements will revitalize your nails and gives them a healthy and beautiful look.

After completing this, you can choose between giving your nails a natural or colored look. For a natural shine you can use the polisher. If you choose to varnish, then pick up the color you like most to enhance the beauty of your toes.

And if you want to try something different, you can try this original idea conceived by the couple John and Yvonne Ho Lee, who live in Washington and manage a beauty salon. The idea is to put your feet inside a fish tank and let the feet and toes pecked by dozens of small fish. The most conservative may find this idea a bit too much for them, but apparently the results are very good. The couple say that these services are efficient because they are first of all, very hygienic when compared with traditional services. Another fact that we should mention that these little fish are red, so they look very nice. According Agerpres, more than 5,000 people have already enjoyed this service offered by the beauty salon 'Hair and Nails.' The two managers consider that the treatment they offer is the best and the cleanest way to have beautiful feet, as all the little fish remove the dead skin without any negative consequences.

However, although this idea sounds great, most women prefer the methods that combine the pedicure equipment manufactured to the latest scientific and technical standards with health care and beauty products made with natural ingredients. Nonetheless, a bit of color in your life can't harm you, so may also enjoy the little red fish of John and Yvonne. No matter which method you choose for your dream pedicure, remember that your feet need love just like your hands and the rest of your body.
