Top 10 to do list for mom skeeing a safe way to beauty their feet:
1- SOAK your feet in warm water with either Epson salts or herbal mixtures for at least 10 minutes.

2- REMOVE thickened, dead skin build up (also known as calluses) around the presoaked heels, balls and sides of the feet with a pumice stone or foot file. Dr. Mendelsohn warns not to use a razor as it removes too much skin and can easily cause infection or permanent damage to the skin if used incorrectly.

3- SCRUB using an exfoliating cream on the soles, sides and tops of the feet to eliminate dry, flaky winter skin.

4- APPLY and massage a healthy amount of emollient enriched skin lotion all over your feet to hydrate the skin and increase circulation.

5- APPLY nail polish to the toenails only if the nail is healthy. Remove polish regularly to let the nail bed breathe for a fabulous spring

6- WRAP your entire foot with cellophane at bedtime. The cellophane will act as a makeshift sauna by locking in moisture.

7- CLIP toenails with a straight edge toenail clipper to just above the top of each toe to ensure nails do not become curved or rounded in the corners.

8- PRACTICE good foot hygiene, including daily washing of the feet with soap and water, drying feet carefully, particularly between the toes.

9- INSPECT your sandals or flip flops from the previous year. Discard any that appear too worn.

10- TREAT yourself to a foot facial with Silkpeel microdermabrasion to remove any remaining dry calluses skin and see your podiatrist for unresolved problems.
