How to take care of your feet in monsoon?

 

1. Keep Your Feet Clean & Dry

To prevent fungal and bacterial infections, keeping your feet clean and dry is imperative. So, wash your feet daily with water using a mild cleanser after outdoor visits. Use a towel to pat dry feet afterward. You can also carry a small towel or tissue to wipe off excess moisture in your feet.

3. Shape & Trim Nails Properly

Give frequent trim to your nails to not only make them look neat but also to eliminate dirt and debris stuck in them. It also minimizes the risk of accidental tear and nail breakage. Trimming nails also helps to prevent foot infections caused by the wet climate.

Use Vega Soft Touch Cuticle Trimmer and Pusher to gently push the cuticles back and a uniquely shaped V-shaped metal to neatly trim dead cuticles around the nails to significantly improve the health of your nails.

5. Use Foot Cream to Moisturize

Moisturizing is a vital step of the skincare routine. So, to keep your feet soft, nourished, and free from cracks, apply a light-weight moisturizer on your feet. Opt for the moisturizer which is not greasy, so it doesn’t stick but rather hydrates your feet. Apply moisturizer twice a day or as per the frequency of how soon your feet dry. Avoid applying it on wet feet. Ensure your feet are first properly clean and dried out to begin with your moisturizer. Also, use nail cream or natural oils like coconut oil or olive oil to enhance the strength of your nails while replenishing moisture.

6. Wear Right Footwear

Choose open footwear that prevents excessive sweating. Never share your footwear as it can increase the chances of bacterial infections. Wear breathable cotton socks and keep changing them to prevent odor.
