In winter, many women pay less attention to how their feet look. However, this is a big mistake, as they learn in summer when they have to put on flip-flops or sandals, and their dry and calloused heels require “de-cluttering”. In difficult cases, it is worth using the services of a professional pedicure. Home remedies also come in handy.
Home remedy for smooth heels
One of them is a salt bath. To do it, you only need a large bowl, warm water and sea salt, which can be found in many homes among kitchen spices.
- Pour about half a cup of sea salt (Epsom salt can also be used) into a bowl of water (be careful not to let it get too hot).
- Soak your feet in this prepared solution for about 15-20 minutes.
- After this time, dry your feet thoroughly with a towel.
- Softened, dead skin gently we remove it with a scrub or pumice stone (preferably made of nano glass). or a foot grater.
- Rinse your feet, dry them thoroughly and apply an intensively moisturizing cream to your feet.
ADVICE! Use a salt bath no more than twice a week. Soaking your feet in brine too often can dry out the skin.

Sea salt foot bath – effects
A regular brine bath will help prevent fungal and bacterial infections of the feet. It also helps fight unpleasant odor. Salt, especially Epsom salt, is a rich source of magnesium, which has anti-inflammatory effects. Such a treatment will not only take care of the appearance, but will also bring relief to tired feet. Regular removal of dead skin is especially important if you want to avoid unsightly keratinization of the skin and enjoy the beautiful appearance of your feet all the time.
WARNING! Bathing your feet in a salt solution has many benefits, but it is not a good treatment for everyone. Under no circumstances should you soak your feet in salt if you have open wounds, skin lesions, infections or ulcers. In such a situation, you should consult your doctor immediately. Diabetics should also be careful and consult their doctor before starting such treatments.
