After Winter Help With Dry Cracked Heels

Posted: April 24th, 2017

Have a Spa Treatment On Your Dry Heels

As winter is ending, you may notice that your heels look terrible with cracked and dry skin. You won't want to wear sandals when you have ugly heels, but by visiting your favorite day spa, you can request specialized skin care for your feet. An esthetician will have you place your feet in a footbath that has hot swirling water to wash away the bacteria that can infect the cracking skin. This spa treatment makes it easier for an esthetician to exfoliate the flaky tissue from your heels, leading to healthy skin.

Request a Fruit Acid Peel

Next, you can place your feet in a footbath that contains warm melted wax that will seep into the cracks on the heels of your feet. After this soothing skin care, she will apply fragrant emollients that will moisturize the soles, toes, and heels of your feet. When this spa treatment doesn't slough off the cracked and dry skin from your heels, you need additional skin care. An esthetician can apply a gentle fruit acid peeling product on your heels that will help her to exfoliate the rough skin tissue.

Schedule Routine Appointments For Foot Care

Using a pumice stone is one of the best ways for an esthetician to remove the hard calluses from your heels so that your bare feet will look attractive in sandals. While you are at the day spa having a treatment on your heels, consider having your toenails trimmed, buffed and polished. The esthetician can also moisturize the cuticles on your toenails so that you have healthy skin on your toes in addition to your heels. Make sure to schedule routine appointments with a day spa throughout the spring and summer to keep your feet looking beautiful.
