How do your feet look?

Are you in need of a pedicure? You may be, more than you think!

Anyone that's had a pedicure knows that it feels amazing! The time spent on pampering the toes and legs is always welcomed. And a bonus, the polished toe nails make you look put together. Yes, they are relaxing, but there are physical benefits of having a pedicure too. With the average person taking 8,000 to 10,000 steps a day this can cause wear and tear on the feet that can be harmful if not maintained properly. All this walking can build up calluses, corns and blisters. Having calluses on your feet can cause uneven pressure when you walk or stand that can also lead to the pain you feel when on your feet all day.
Listed below are benefits of having a pedicure:  

1. Soaking:
Most pedicures start with a foot soak....This softens the skin and promotes circulation in your lower leg, ankle and foot while disinfecting your feet.  The increased circulation will reduce pain and swelling in your feet from sitting, standing and walking all day.  

2. Exfoliate the Feet:
Exfoliation, or removal of dead skin cells, prevents the cells from accumulating and causing calluses or corns, which can be uncomfortable and painful. The removal of the dead skin on your feet, especially on the heel, encourages new cell growth which creates smoother and more attractive feet. Regular pedicures keep corns and calluses at bay and keep feet smooth.


3. Preserves Skin's Moisture:
A pedicure includes a massage with oils or lotions that help preserve the moisture of your feet. Moisturized feet are less likely to get blisters, cracks or other foot problems. It is also important to keep your cuticles moisturized to prevent nails from growing out with ridges or split ends which can cause the nails to lift out of the nail beds.

4. Decreases Chances of Infections:
Clipping, cutting and cleaning of the toe nails prevents them from growing inward and causing infection. The elimination of dirt and bacteria from your feet will also help prevent nail diseases disorders (fungi) and foot odors. It is also important to keep toenails healthy because they protect toes from trauma.

5. Promotes Circulation:
The most enjoyable part of the spa pedicure is the massage. Massage helps promotes circulation and helps relieve tension in the calves and feet. Increase in blood circulation can reduce pain and brings oxygen to the tissues.

 Are you ready for summer dresses, shorts, skirts and swim suits? Essentially, are you sun kissed?
How does it work?
Using three organic tanning agents - Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) boosted by DMI & Erythulose - without any stains or dyes, Fake Bake works with your own unique skin tone to produce a naturally-based darker pigmentation on your skin's surface. By enhancing your skin's own pigments, Fake Bake will give you a natural-looking tan that lasts longer. Fake Bake also has a built-in color guide so you can see where you're applying the self-tanning product on your skin, ensuring streak-free application. Thus, you get a perfectly even golden bronze tan, every time.

How to prepare your skin?
Exfoliate the area using a loofah or a terry cloth towel prior to application. The tanning lotion will appear darker in dryer areas, ie. elbows, knees.
