Our heels can easily turn dry and cracked.
With the abuse it receives daily, it is not surprising to find our heels in a bad state.
Calluses can also appear.
They can make your feet look old and unattractive.
You should not take this sitting down.
To have smooth and sexy heels is such a boost of our self-confidence.
So here are some tips that can help you achieve this: 1.
Moisturize your feet all the time.
Don't let it turn dry or it will get damaged quite easily.
The problem with the integumentary system is that it loses its resilient nature once it turns dry and damaged.
This is why you have to constantly keep it moist and hydrated.
Try looking for a good moisturizing product.
A body lotion that contains the natural ingredients CynergyTK, Phytessence Wakame and Manuka Honey will surely help you out.
CynergyTK is beneficial because of its collagen-boosting benefits.
This ingredient supplies functional keratin to the system.
Keratin is a kind of complex protein responsible for the growth of collagen fibers.
Phytessence Wakame is a type of sea kelp that can prevent the loss of hyaluronic acid.
This acid is needed to constantly hydrate and lubricate collagen fibers.
Manuka honey also has wonderful emollient properties.
It can mimic the moisture-retaining functions of the skin so your heels can remain moist and soft all day long.
2.
Try scrubbing your feet.
But instead of using a hard scrubber just like those sold in the market, I suggest using a mild exfoliating scrub.
Hard scrubbers tend to scrape the surface layers of the dermis.
This might make your calluses a lot firmer.
Use an exfoliating scrub made up of yogurt, honey and ground almonds.
The particles of ground almonds can get rid of dead skin cells.
This will slowly exfoliate you dermis and reveal younger looking skin.
Yogurt contains lactic acid.
It facilitates the regeneration of tissues so you can get rid of dry and damaged skin.
It also works in improving the softness of your heels.
Honey can keep your feet well-moisturized.
3.
At least twice a week, pamper your feet.
Soak it in warm water infused with lemon juice for about 15 minutes.
This will soften up the calluses and the fissures.
After 15 minutes, dry up your feet with a towel and apply a hydrating mask.
For the mask, mix gelatine, papaya juice and coconut oil.
Gelatine is a natural precursor to keratin.
This can help improve the youthful structure of your heels.
Papaya juice contains beta carotene that can help heal damaged tissues and cells.
Coconut oil is a great source of linoleic acid.
This acid has connective properties that can bridge the gap in between skin tissues.
