Hand and Foot CareGood looking and clean hand and foot are always esthetic features of us. Who doesn’t want good looking and clean hand and feet? Dirty hands and feet, neglected nails, nobody wants these. Just cleaning is not enough for hand and foot care. Taking special care of them is required. Here some tips for hand and foot care:

Tips for Hand Care
Hand care requires special attention. We use our hands for everything so they are sensitive. If you neglect the care of your hands, you can come across with undesired results. Wrinkles, spots, dryness are just some of these undesired results. In order to have beautiful hands, from very young ages, we should pay attention to hand care.


The hand skin is sensitive and thin. If it is exposed to sun directly, brownish spots can appear. Treatment of such a problem is hard. It also requires a long time with no guarantee of recovery. Before going out, use hand cream. Choose a cream with high protecting features. Do not forget to apply it regularly before going out.

Dryness of hands is a common problem. We use chemicals for cleaning, we use strong soaps. They give harm to hand skin. For overcoming this harm, moisture your hand at least four times in a day.

In addition to daily care, there are weekly things you should do. For more sensitive care, apply your night cream to your hands once in a week. After regular daily care, this will help your hand skin be stronger.

Using rubber gloves is the golden rule of hand care. With it your hands do not directly contact with whatever you do. After your work, just take it off and your hands are healthy and strong. Do not forget to use gloves!

If spots, wrinkles, briefly some problems occur on your hand skin and if you can not figure out why this happens, consult to a dermatologist. The case can be more serious than you think. Eczema and similar skin problems begin like this. Do not ignore even a small spot.

Regular manicure is necessary for both esthetic and health. If you can do it yourself, it is the best. Public tools used for manicure can spread microbes and bacteria. If you can not do it yourself, try to find a hygienic place.

Tips for Foot Care
Feet carry us all day to everywhere. If they are clean, strong and healthy, we are comfortable. First of all, for foot care choose a suitable shoe for yourself. This is very important. If it is too big, too small, or too uncomfortable, your feet, toes and nails are badly affected. After that, wear cotton socks, they absorb the perspiration. Do not wear the same shoe everyday.

Massaging the feet is very relieving. It takes the fatigue, dead cells and dirt away. You can brush your feet and use aromatic oils for massage. After massage dry the feet very well. Try to keep your feet dry every time. Otherwise, the feet skin, toes and nails are good places for bacteria and microbes.
Pedicure is much more difficult than manicure. However, making it at home is possible. If you do it yourself, try to do it. If you do not, look for professional care.
