STASH #75: Leg Care Part II - How to get smooth heels in 15 minutes



Does the heels of your feet look like this?

Many of us take good care of our face but ignore areas like the bottom of our feet and joints. These areas need to be taken care of too! Especially your feet - after a long day of walking, they deserve to be treated to a spa. Well, sort of. Rough and cracked heels are also not pleasant to look at when you wear open heel shoes. Let me show you how you can keep your heels smooth and moisturise all the time!



items required:
towel
foot pail
foot scraper
pumice stone
towel pad


 Step 1: Soak your feet into a pail of warm water. This is to soften the skin around the heel area.





Step 2: Dry your heels with the towel. Use the foot scraper and start scraping the rough skin around the heels!
This is how a foot scraper looks like - not sure if I got the right name of this tool or not. But basically the scraper looks similar to those kitchen tools used to scrape vegetables into thin strips? haha. So when you scrap, do it in one direction.


Step 3: Next, use the purmice stone to smoothen up the heels after the dead skin is removed.



Step 4: Wash off all the dead skin at the heel area by soaking your feet into the pail of water again and dry them again.

And there! Look! Clean and smooth heels!

To maintain your heels, do moisturise them daily, probably every night before you sleep. I use Jergens Ultra Healing moisturiser and I greatly recommended that if you are looking for an affordable moisturiser to use!

The tools seen in this post are bought from Diaso.... If my memory never fail me. Otherwise, I'm sure they are available in those neighbourhood beauty and grooming stores as well.
