Summer, get ready to show beautiful feet

As the temperature gradually rises in summer, many women begin to turn out their long-hidden sandals. However, compared with the face and hands, the feet never seem to be secondary, care is naturally not in place, and after the winter and spring wrapping, many problems should arise, such as dead skin on the feet, dry lines, etc. is really unsightly, to timely care. In addition, the Guangdong Provincial People’s Hospital dermatology chief physician Dong Xiuqin reminded that some foot problems, such as calluses, plantar warts, gray nails, in addition to adverse foot health, also affect the aesthetic. And these problems take about months to treat, so pay attention and treat them early to have beautiful feet and health in summer. Exfoliation, two or three times a week One of the characteristics of the foot skin is rough, the reason for this is that in addition to the foot to be subjected to friction every day, or the whole body oil secretion less, but sweat secretion more places, in addition to easy to breed bacteria, the foot keratin is also a thicker part of the body. Therefore, want to have beautiful feet, skin rejuvenation exfoliation is an indispensable step. In fact, the foot is often in close contact with shoes, in addition to the heel, and shoes often in contact with the location of the cuticle will grow thicker, especially women who like to wear high heels. And the thicker the cuticle of the foot will cause pressure on these parts, which in turn will continue to stimulate thickening. The thick cuticle is a favorite “delicacy” of bacteria, if not handled with care, in addition to affecting the aesthetics, but also cause problems such as foot odor, ringworm. But exfoliation can not be arbitrary, some people see the cuticle is too thick, you will not resist to tear, or use scissors, nail clippers to cut off. In fact, dry grinding or tearing is also a stimulus that can also cause hyperplasia of the stratum corneum, even if temporarily removed, will soon “grow” back. Dong Xiuqin said, remove the hyperplasia of the cuticle, need to soak soft before you can carry out. It is best to use hot water for 10-15 minutes, which will make the foot dead skin dirt and keratin are easier to remove, this time you can use small scissors and other tools to carefully thin the thick keratin layer. The tops of the feet are generally less exfoliated and are in the superficial layer of the skin, which can be handled by rubbing. Exfoliation is not the same as removing dead skin dirt, it cannot be done overnight and requires long-term persistence. However, it should be noted that exfoliation should also not be carried out too frequently, about 2-3 times a week will do. Strengthen the hydration, supplemented by massage “hydration” is a term very familiar to many women, but those meticulous processes are more applied to the face. I do not know, the foot because the sebaceous glands are less developed, the arch part of the foot even completely no sebaceous gland distribution, so it has always been relatively dry. If you want to have tender feet, it is necessary to make the foot hydration work, or water retention work to do. Dong Xiuqin suggested that you can use a towel to dry your feet after soaking or bathing, and then immediately apply the emollient oil for the feet, but do not be too thick, should feel more comfortable to self. At the same time, you can also do the massage for their feet to improve blood circulation. If you are not familiar with the distribution of acupuncture points, you can hold their feet in one direction massage, or with a circular massage. Foot sunscreen, can not be ignored If you ask, a small sunscreen milk, you will apply where? The answer is definitely “face” and “arms”. In life, there are few women who do not go out and apply sunscreen all over their body, at least many women are not in the habit of applying sunscreen to their feet. But if you wear sandals for a long time and ignore sun protection, it won’t take long to get a visible lace mark. So to have a pair of beautiful feet, to prevent UV damage to the skin of the feet, sun protection is an important step. Of course, if you don’t want to sunburn ugly black marks, but also don’t want to often apply sunscreen, then it is recommended to wear less sandals. It is worth mentioning that if you apply sunscreen on your feet, it is best to pay attention to cleaning when you take a shower. Tips: unsuitable shoes make the feet ugly Dong Xiuqin said that many foot diseases are caused or aggravated by unsuitable shoes, in addition to affecting the aesthetics, but also to the health hindrance. Such as corns and calluses, is actually due to repeated mechanical damage to the foot resulting in hyperkeratosis. Among them, high-heeled shoes as well as ill-fitting and uncomfortable shoes may cause and aggravate the pressure and friction on the foot, thus producing this condition of hyperkeratosis of the skin of the foot. It is both unsightly and uncomfortable. It is true that chipping the callus and removing the central nucleus of the corns can quickly relieve the symptoms, but picking shoes that fit the foot is the most important thing.
