How to remove calluses on feet this summer

Lima roughness

And never better said! Calluses are easier to prevent than to treat. That is why it is good that two or three times a week, at the end of your morning shower, you get rid of dead skin after the water has softened it. To smooth the rough edges you can use a pumice stone or the electronic file that you will find this month with your Clara Magazine.

Hydrate them

Cracked heels detract from any sandal. After exfoliating your feet, don't forget to hydrate them with foot cream. Spread the cream well, not forgetting fingers and ankles. And if you have time –maybe it can become your night routine–, apply the cream with a relaxing massage. When you're done, cover them with thin socks. If you don't like sleeping with them, wear them for 20 minutes.

Remove polish and file nails

Before filing your nails, remove - if you wear it - the current polish. Then cut them with a nail clipper - better if you do it after the shower because they will be softer - and file them in the same direction, until the length exceeds a few millimeters from the fingertips. Make sure to round the edges of the nails so they don't dig into you and poke nails.

Apply the polish

Choose your favorite polish, if you don't have one yet, get inspired by these ideas to dress your nails. Apply the base, the first coat of enamel with 3 strokes, one in the center and one on each side. Let it dry for 5 minutes and apply the second coat. Don't be nervous because if you bump yourself or start to move, you may ruin them before they are completely dry.

Apply the top coat

To show off your pedicure and pretty feet all summer, don't forget to apply a top coat, a base that will make the nail polish last longer.
