Twinkle Toes - Tips For Pretty Feet / August 4, 2010
Tips for improving the appearance of our feet go way beyond the painted toenail.
Paying attention to the skin on the top and bottom 
of our feet is important for looks and health. Even exercising the feet can have an affect on their appearance. If a foot is strong and has muscles that contract and relax easily, it actually looks much better in a sexy sandal than a tight or swollen foot.
Feet also reflect the body. Some people say that points on the feet correlate with all of the organs and structures throughout the body. Thus, one can access the entire body through the feet. Foot reflexology is an example of a therapeutic modality based on this theory. Caring for the feet is also a way to care for the entire body.
Here are some tips to have healthy, happy feet:- Give Your Feet a Facial (would that be a Footcial?)
The skin on top of the feet can be exfoliated and moisturized just like the skin on your face. A glow and good feeling can result. See recipes below for rubs and scrubs for your feet.
- Soak Your Feet for Softness and Invigoration
1 cup lemon juice, Cinnamon or other essential oil or spice 2 tablespoons of olive oil, l¼ cup of milk; Water (amount does not matter)
Mix all the ingredients in a tub and soak your feet in it for awhile. Cinnamon can be replaced with any spice, perfume or flower petals. Peppermint is another popular favorite. Feet love peppermint!
This soak will leave your skin refreshed and fragrant. After this wash your feet with a mild soap. Follow this foot care regimen for a few weeks and the skin on your feet will be silky and smooth. - Exercise Your Feet
Ankle Stretch: Sit with your legs stretched out in front of you. Point your toes down as if depressing a pedal (plantar flexion) and then stretch your toes toward your face (dorsi flexion) as far as is comfortable. Hold each stretch for a few seconds, then relax and repeat 10 times.
Foot Rollers are great to keep in an area where you spend a lot of time sitting - on the floor underneath your office chair or favorite spot on the couch. Foot Rollers work by vigorously rubbing the roller with the feet over the soles of the feet.
Foot Rollers can:
- Massage pressure points on the bottom of each foot and stimulate circulation
- Revive sore arches, relieve joint and muscle fatigue
