Must-Know Tips For Your Summer Prep Pedicure

With spring in full bloom, now is the time to slip into all of your favourite airy summer sandals and strappy heels. Naturally, you will want your feet to look their best. However, we know that the cold winter months can wreak havoc on the appearance of your feet. Dry, rough and cracked heels can be enough to make you instantly regret putting your feet on display. That’s why we have prepared a few tips to prep your feet for the sunny season.

What Does a Pedicure Include?

A pedicure is a popular cosmetic treatment for the feet and toenails. Pedicures are done mostly for aesthetic reasons, but may also be used therapeutically. Simply put, a pedicure is a pampering treat for your feet. Pedicures usually include toenail care, a foot soak or spa, exfoliating and moisturising the feet and ankles, and the application of nail polish. Some pedicures may also incorporate a foot and leg massage as part of the treatment. Pedicures are generally between 30 and 90 minutes long, depending on the type of pedicure and what is included in the treatment.

How To Prep Your Feet for Summer with a Pedicure

The months of neglect and confinement during winter have unsurprisingly taken their toll on your feet. Regret might be sinking in. If only you had taken better care of your feet. Now, you are faced with a dilemma: How can you possibly transform your currently cringe-worthy feet into beautifully pampered feet that you can proudly show off?

Step 1: Prep Your Skin with a Foot Soak

What better way to prep your feet for summer than a treatment-packed pedicure? Traditionally, pedicures start by soaking the feet in a warm foot bath to soften the skin and make it easier to remove dead skin. If you’d like to kick off your summer prepping with a truly indulgent treat, we highly recommend Baby Foot®. Their Baby Foot® Peel-Enhancing Foot Soak is available in two delightful scents, Yuzu Citrus and Hinoki Cypress Wood. The Baby Foot® Peel-Enhancing Foot Soak is crammed with natural ingredients to refresh, revitalise and soften your feet – your feet will be summer sandal-ready in no time!

Step 2: Slough Off Dead Skin

Following your Baby Foot® Peel-Enhancing Foot Soak, your feet are ready to be exfoliated. You will need either an exfoliating scrub, pumice stone or file. Starting with the heels, gently slough away dry, dead skin on your feet. Rinse your feet with warm water after exfoliating. If you are using a file or pumice stone, make sure to also clean these afterwards.

Step 3: Tend To Your Toes

After exfoliating, use a cuticle pen to gently push your cuticles towards your nail bed. Then grab a pair of nail clippers and trim your toenails. Lastly, use a nail file to smooth your toenails, taking care not to round the edges.

Step 4: Soften Your Skin with a Moisturiser or Massage Oil

To soften your freshly soaked and exfoliated feet, massage moisturiser into your feet. If you really want to treat yourself, use a massage oil with a drop of your favourite aromatherapy oil instead of a moisturiser. Not that your feet are in tip-top shape, it’s for the fun part: Choosing a nail polish.

Step 5: Pick Your Polish

Pick a nail polish that compliments your unique summer style. You should also consider the type of nail polish that you will be using, depending on your needs. If you want a long-lasting polish, gel nail polish is your best choice. However, if you have brittle nails, traditional nail polish might be more suitable.

I was sceptical about this product. I didn’t think it would work but was willing to try it anyway because my feet need the help. I am shocked that it really works. It works just like it says…3 days after using the booties for an hour my feet started to peel. Within 7 more days, my feet had completely peeled and are much softer and smoother. I definitely recommend this product.

Baby Foot is amazing! I didn’t think this would actually work but after the initial 1 hr application and a few days of soaking, Baby Foot has become my new best friend! It’s easy and effective. I have now had smooth baby feet. Trust me this is one beauty secret that needs to be shared xx

I tried the product, and it works amazingly – to my surprise as I’ve never used a peel that really works. It’s like a new pair of feet. Same aches and pains but soft as a baby’s….well, real soft!

I thought my feet could only get better with the use of a bench grinder. They were awful. I could never show my feet because they were so ugly with the very hard skin, and my heels were especially bad. I was also hesitant because I’ve been fooled by on-line orders before. This stuff is AWESOME. It is the first time in years that my feet look better than that of a neanderthal!!! Thank you so much for a great product and excellent customer service. Very well worth the money!!

We stock Baby Foot in our 4 salons, and we couldn’t be happier! Our clients, staff, and friends alike all LOVE the results and almost all have returned 3, 4 months down the track. THANKS BABY FOOT KEEP THEM COMING!

I tried this product for the first time about 2 months ago. I was very impressed with the results, but still had some callouses on my heels. I did a second application about 4 weeks later and OMG, I am THRILLED with how my feet look and feel. This is an amazing product you have. I have suffered from hard calloused feet for years, have used files, razors, and everything else but was too embarrassed to have a pedi. Now my feet look soft, pink and pretty! I am beyond happy!
