Getting feet ready for summer

Summer is just around the corner so it is ready to be thinking of those cute little strappy sandals you have hidden in your closet. But you can not put on those sandals without a little work on those feet that have been crammed into hot socks and shoes all winter long. Pamper those tootsies and get ready for those feet to be shown.
Begin by using a pumice stone on your feet in the shower. I suggest doing this every time you shower to get the most benefit from it. Make sure to get the heels very well as this is where the dead skin tends to build up.
Another good thing to try is a good exfoliating scrub. Avon has some wonderful ones out now. One smells like watermelon and another has the scent of coconut. I must say they both smell awesome. Just rub it in well and massage for a minute. Then rinse well.
After this step, you can dry your feet well and then apply a lotion. Once again Avon has some good ones to try. They have watermelon and coconut ones to match the exfoliating scrubs above. Massage into feet. After I do this I do apply a pair of socks so the lotion can do a great job at softening the feet.
After doing the above steps for a week your feet will be soft and ready for sandals. Yeah summer is here!
