Treat your feet

31/7/2015

Feet... many people suffer from cracked and dry skin, athletes foot and many other problems, all because of their feet.
Today I am going to show you how I treat my feet to swap sneakers to sandals and be less self conscious.

So... here's what my feet look like when they need a bit of TLC, yep... not so good.

Picture
The first thing that your going to want to do is remove any nail varnish, as you can see by the picture above, it doesn't look nice when it's all cracked, dry and faded. I am using the nail nation varnish remover and some cotton buds.

Next your going to want to get some shower gel/ foot cleanser and a nail brush. Get a hot bowl of water big enough to dip your feet in and wash your feet, then use the foamed up soap to put o your toes and use a nail brush to get under the nails.

Picture
Once your feet are nice and clean you are going to want to use a good thick foot cream, I am using the L'occitane 15% shea foot cream. I use this to make my feet smooth and get rid of dryness and cracks.

You then have the option to file and paint your toenails for a nice clean finish.

Your feet should then look nice, clean and on fleek.

I hope that you liked this post today, it is a little different from my usual but I am just testing the waters and exploring.

shine this summer

Summer... the time of year when old woolly jumpers are traded in for bright new bikinis and hot pants, it's the time of year when you switch off Netflix and popcorn and chill by the pool with a pina-colada.
So what helps us to stand out and shine this summer, how can we enhance our appearance and spruce up that wow factor just with beauty products? Want some tips from me? Keep reading to find out my summer saviors!

First of all is the all important exfoliator! If you are into that glowing golden tan then you will need some kind of exfoliator because the more you exfoliate your skin the more that the sun can react with your skin and get that tan faster!

I like to use the Clinique 'Sparkle Skin', this smells a bit like bleach and mint in a weird way... but it has a really high impact and leaves my skin feeling super soft!
Picture

On the topic of tanning, if you are slightly impatient and don't tan very fast then a little faking along the way doesn't do any bad...
I use a small amount of fake tan in the summer just to jazz up and darken my skin tone!
Iuse the ST. MORIZ instant self tanning mouse, this is really good because it lasts really well and has a lovely soft texture.

It's always good to have soft skin, no matter the weather, I use the Neals Yard 'Calendula & Oat LOTION' in summer because it is nice and light and is perfect for sensitive skin like mine.
Picture
Smelling nice is always a good thing, especially in Summer considering all the heat and sweat may lead you into a bit of BO!! My favorite perfume to use is the Vera Wang 'Pink Princess' as it has a really calm but spontaneous smell.

Finally is lip gloss, This lip gloss is from Sephora and is a four in one perfect size for fitting into a handbag, which means I can change which gloss I want when I want without using up too much precious handbag space.
