Feet are often neglected when it comes to skincare, but they deserve just as much attention and care as any other part of your body. Follow these simple steps to pamper your feet and get them ready for the summer season!
Why is Foot Care Important?
Taking care of your feet, including the calves, is crucial for preventing skin and hygiene problems while improving their overall appearance and health. Regularly massaging in moisturizing and nourishing products can activate and boost blood circulation in your legs. By incorporating a foot care routine, you can keep your feet soft, moisturized, and fit.
Step 1: Soak Your Feet
Begin by filling a bowl with your preferred temperature of water, either cold or hot. Soak your feet for about 15 minutes to soften the epidermis and remove dead skin cells. This step will make the subsequent parts of your foot care routine easier and enhance the absorption of products.
Step 2: Exfoliate Your Feet
Gently exfoliate your damp feet using a specialized foot or body scrub, such as Baija’s Nourishing Foot Scrub. Pay close attention to rough areas prone to dead skin buildup, such as heels and toes. Rinse your feet thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat them dry with a clean towel.
Step 3: Apply a Foot Mask
Introduce a foot mask into your routine once or twice a week for dry feet. A recommended option is Baija’s Nourishing Foot Mask. Massage the product onto your feet and then put on socks for 10 to 15 minutes. Rinse off any excess product, and for even better results, you can leave the mask on overnight!
Step 4: Moisturize and Nourish Your Feet
Apply a small amount of Baija Nourishing Foot Balm or Relaxing Gel to your feet and gently massage it in to improve circulation. Don’t forget to focus on your calves for optimal hydration. Incorporate this ritual into your evening routine after showering or before going to bed, ensuring your feet are clean and dry. Pay extra attention to your feet during the summer months when you’ll be hiking, wearing open shoes, and often going barefoot. This period puts your feet to the test and requires special care. Say goodbye to dry and damaged feet, and hello to baby-soft feet!
Step 5: Enhance Your Feet
After giving your feet the care they deserve, it’s time to add the finishing touches with a beautiful pedicure!

– Finish off with a final coat of top coat.
And there you have it! Your feet are now well-nourished, pampered, and ready to show off.
