Don't add too much foot cream to your feet!

How do you look after your feet?

Your feet put up with a lot and you may or may not think about them until you have to put them on show in the summer or when you get pain. Having healthy supple skin on your feet will not only make them look and feel better, but will also be better for your health. You may not realise it, but your feet can be prone to infection especially if the skin on them becomes very dry and cracked. You may well put a good moisturiser on your face every day, but when it comes to your feet how often are you showing them the care and attention that they deserve? 

If you can't reach your feet to inspect them on a regular basis then consider getting professional help to make sure that your feet are kept in tip top and optimal condition. Find out over the next few days simple things that you can do to look after your feet better.

Try this simple tip to look after your feet the best way

You've already learned that keeping between your toes nice and dry keeps your feet healthy and happy, and that soaking your feet with warm or cooler water is best.

A little of the right foot cream does wonders

If you put too much moisturiser on your feet it will make them feel slippery and isn't very safe either especially if you like to go barefoot. The best time to moisturise is before you go to bed. If you wear socks in the day then first thing in the morning is fine as well. Remember a little of the right moisturiser will go a long way. Foot cream is the best and you can get one tailored to your needs. If you have very dry cracked skin on your heels or very hard skin on the balls of your feet then a cream with a high Urea content is best, but you must stop using it when the skin is healthy again because using it on healthy skin will negate the benefits. Continue with a normal foot cream instead. Should you accidentally apply too much cream to your feet then pat off the excess with a towel or cloth or try to let your feet dry out a little for a few minutes before putting socks or any footwear on.
