Hands and Feet -
BY ABBY C |
- Here's a recipe for those
of you who are self conscious about dry, flaky, calloused feet:
Milk
1 medium-sized avocado
1 banana
1/2 cup of sugar (the coarser the better)
3 tablespoons of sea salt
5 tablespoons of olive oil
2 tablespoons of plain yogurt or sour cream
1 Tablespoon of corn meal (optional)
10 drops of any essential oil you'd like (optional)
Mash banana and avocado in a good sized bowl. Gently stir sugar,
salt and corn meal. Add Olive oil and yogurt/sour cream. Slowly
stir in milk until you have reach a slightly thick consistency.
If the consistency is too thin then add more sugar until it's
just right. Rub feet vigorously (especially at the heels). Then
draw yourself a nice hot bath (be sure to light some candles
and put on some relaxing music). When done gently buff feet with
a pumice stone. And most importantly... RELAX! :) You've earned
it.

Foot Care - BY MARGUERITE SMITH |
|
I love to run barefoot all
the time, so I end up damaging my feet. My toenails are always
cracked from bumping into things so I did a little experiment
on my feet and it worked.
First you need to get some
lemon juice and rub it on the toe nail that is cracked. (use
water instead of lemon juice if you have any open sores around
your toe nails.) then take a nail file and rub it back and forth
on the toe nail. After a while some white stuff will be on your
toe nail, so just wipe it off and apply more lemon juice. Continue
this until the crack is gone. Do this monthly so your toe nails
stay pretty. |
